It is the MPTO (Tocumen, Panama) ILS 3R.

I believe that ABC1 has it correct...the 2200 foot minimum applies to the TBG 8 DME fix. If you were turning inbound to intercept the localizer inside of the TBG 8 fix, you could descend with respect to the 1700 foot minimum at LAMBI. If, for some reason, you were outside of the TBG 8 fix, the 2200 foot restriction would apply until crossing the fix inbound.

That said, I don't see any reference to your comment about the word "Recommended" on the chart here...I'd be interested to know what that looks like.
