About

A hidden gem in the Maginhawa food scene, Gubat QC offers an authentic kamayan dining experience surrounded by bonsai trees and lush greenery. The restaurant follows a nearly zero-waste policy, using biodegradable materials throughout.

Gubat (meaning "forest" in Tagalog) is a unique kamayan-style Filipino restaurant nestled inside the Diliman Bonsai Society garden near UP Diliman. All food is served on banana leaves and eaten with bare hands — no plates, no utensils. The lush, garden setting with recycled wooden interiors makes you feel like you've escaped to the province, even though you're in the middle of Quezon City. Popular dishes include lechon kawali, adobong baboy, halabos na hipon, and their fermented buro rice.
