The restaurant was setting up for a sound check and I had great difficulty talking to the owners because of this. I guess they have karaoke every night and on Sundays there is a dance teacher that comes in to teach whomever so brave how to do the Salsa. You pay simply 5 dollars, have something to eat and learn the ways that your body can or cannot move.
MFGAP has tons of crowd pleasing tricks up its sleeve; they have celebrity Filipino guests coming in to perform for their cliental this February 11th to commemorate Valentine's Day. Tickets are on sale for $30 and this is for a 5 course meal.
The owners seem to be a husband and wife team and they are both friendly and inspired and if I am not mistaken their father is the cook.
The place is a big space, complete with dance floor, disco lights and an obviously very loud sound system.
Their menu is East meets West, they want to appeal to the non- Filipino crowd as well, but they do serve up traditional delights like Pansit, Adobo, and Fried Fish.
You can even have your private birthday celebration here as well, depending on how many courses, you can have a package deal that includes a bottomless pop beverage and sing to your heart's content.
MFGAP, one of the few larger Filipino restaurants in the city.
