If you like bagoong, there is a dish here you MUST try! It's called the Crispy Binagoongan. Surprisingly, I have never had this before. It comes with fried crispy pork (sliced like lechon), sliced jalapenos, onions, garlic, and yes oil. It is very oily, but worth a try, on your cheat meal of course...if you're a healthy eater like me. It comes with fried talong (eggplant), we ordered it with extra eggplant.
Another must try here is... If you love garlic like I do, you'll LOVE the garlic fried rice here! They added a lot of fried minced garlic.
We also ordered pork and more pork. 2 more pork dishes. Don't ask me why, I wasn't ordering. haha. Crispy Pata and Lechon Kawali. I didn't like these. Both of these dishes, the pork skin was hard and the meat was dry even though it was drenched in oil. I'm not a fan of either of these dishes in general, so I wouldn't order it again. The Crispy Pata was mostly bone.
They also have a Vietnamese menu, desserts and boba drinks. And their specials can be found on a menu at the front door.
Service was great! There was only one waitress working that day and she handled it flawlessly. There must have been 5 other groups of people that came in after us. She was kind and friendly. The interior was warm, inviting, and homey. It's got both a Filipino and Vietnamese flair to it.
It's located in a private lot, and there's always tons of parking.
I will be back for the Binagoongan, just thinking about it my mouth is salivating. I will be back for you and to try other items on the menu.
