  • I know...I'm late to the party but finally got the chance to try Platito. Hubby and I walked in without a reservation on a Saturday night and were seated at communal picnic table in the back. I really enjoyed the old school R&B they were playing, at least until they had to temporarily move the sound system to the front part of the restaurant. We ordered adobo fried pork chop, pork skewers, and kare kare. The kare kare was good, with just enough salted shrimp fry saltiness to not need extra bagoong on the side. The kare kare was not made with oxtail (which I'm accustomed to having in kare kare) but the beef was tender and the sauce was tasty. I did enjoy the textural interest that the fried okra provided. Pork skewers were saucy and sweet the way I like it, and the meat was juicy with lots of delicious garlic and onion flavour. My hubby wasn't fond of the fattier pieces of meat on the skewer he ate but generally speaking I found the meat to fat ratio on the skewers better than most Filipino restaurants. The pork chops were perfectly fried and the sauce was delicious but I enjoyed the atchara (like a Filipino sauerkraut) that helped cut the heaviness of the fried pork. Unfortunately one of the pork chops had a massive section of fat that made up about a third the portion of one of the chops. I did mention this to one of the owners who stated that this is not the norm and he offered to have the chef fry up another chop for us. We declined because we were already quite full. Yet not full enough to pass up something sweet. The turon was yummy with the addition of Nutella and strawberry sauce and served with a small scoop of vanilla ice cream. A delicious, not too sweet little dessert to finish off an overall satisfying meal. Overall the food was quite tasty and I hope to return to try some of their more novel dishes like bok bok chicken with ube waffle. If you're coming in the colder months, you may wish to make a reservation so you can be seated in the restaurant proper to avoid getting cool feet if seated in the enclosed back patio section of the restaurant. Hope these guys do well! I think it's pretty awesome that a nurse and architect are the owners of this restaurant, as it's always great to see Filipino cuisine being elevated and made more accessible to the masses.
