Biz Buzz: Dua Lipa adds Rockwell to PH tour

Grammy-winning artist Dua Lipa sure made the most of her short stay in the Philippines.

Aside from strolling along the cobbled streets of the Walled City of Intramuros ahead of the Manila leg of her “Radical Optimism” tour at the Philippine Arena on Nov. 13, Lipa also spent time enjoying the vibrant culinary scene at Rockwell Center in Makati.

Lipa, best known for her hits “Levitating,” “Dance the Night” and “Houdini,” had dinner at modern Japanese fine dining restaurant 12/10 at 8 Rockwell on Nov. 11.

There, she and her group enjoyed an 11-course omakase spread. They especially enjoyed the scallops and lamb curry dishes, Biz Buzz sources said.

She and her friends went back to Rockwell on Wednesday to have lunch at Grace Park of renowned chef Margarita Fores at One Rockwell, the same restaurant visited in 2019 by U2 front man Bono.

Dua Lipa, who was with her boyfriend, British actor Callum Turner, enjoyed pasta and even tried the Filipino favorite sisig.

Apparently, Turner was eager to try Filipino fare and was not disappointed.

Indeed, Rockwell has turned into a veritable go-to of not just the who’s who of Philippine society but of international celebrities, too.
