| - I love to try different cuisines of food. My buddy Andrew is Filipino, and told me this place is authentic and delicious. We planned to hang out one night after work, so he offered to pick up some food for us. I have only ever tried lumpia so I told him to get whatever. For a 2 item combo, depending what you get, it is like $6-7 and comes with white rice. We both had combos, and then he ordered lumpia and pancit! There was so. much. food. He came home with:
Lumpia shanghai
Pancit
Pork Adobo
Beefsteak
Bbq chicken skewer
Beef stew (this has a proper name but I don't know what it is)
My favorite things were the lumpia and the bbq chicken skewers. The lumpia are bite sized, and come with a tasty sweet chili dipping sauce. They are seriously sooo delicious I couldn't stop popping them into my mouth. The bbq chicken was really good too. You get 2 skewers of chicken that is marinated in 7-up and other spices and seasonings
I did not care for the beefsteak. It was very gelatinous and there were chunks of fat swimming around in the bowl. I did like the pancit, which is similar to chow mein but has a much different flavor. I was soooo full after all that food and went into a food coma for about 4 hours. The price was amazing too! He got all that food for around $25 and we had plenty of leftovers.
I was really looking forward to trying the crispy pata, but they were all out. I also want to try the Halo Halo which is like a sweet shaved iced, and turon, which is a sweet lumpia roll. As Arnold says, I'll be back.
