People often associate Katipunan to heavy traffic jams, but it is also the home to some of the great food establishments that are budget-friendly for the students in the surrounding area.

While the Ateneo de Manila University temporarily holds their classes online this school year, students will most likely miss their favorite lunchtime tambayan with friends.

Luckily, a few options have re-opened during the general community quarantine offering their yummiest dishes and making them available for takeaway.

There are a lot of choices, mind you, but here are some standouts you can try:
