Discovered this multiple-personality Filipino eatery/bakery/grocery store in Scarborough during the Taste of Lawrence street festival (it's located along that strip).
Quick, clean, and convenient. I was impressed with the quantity and fresh quality of hot foods available - including empanadas - as I arrived at opening time. A Tagalog romance played out its heartbreak on a flatscreen TV while I made my selections. :) I gravitated toward my favourites - palabok, pork BBQ skewers (heavy, sweet, salty like it was meant to be - ma sarap!), calamansi juice, and Filipino-style spaghetti sauce (reminds me of visits to Manila as a kid) for home. Many Filipino desserts to choose from too - I got ube hopia. Everything hit the spot for me. Enjoyed my visit, and will be back.
There is a neat seating space by FV's large windows, overlooking Lawrence Ave and the parking lot - ultimate suburban experience. :)
