| - Came to try out this new place in Baldwin. After seeing all the mouth watering photos on Instagra6, I know I had to try it.
First of all the location - they couldn't have chosen a better one. Baldwin is a foodies' haven. With all the good restaurants in the area, they are bound to be noticed.
Foodwise, this place has a lot of potential. The food is good, decent servings (even for someone like that eats tons of rice ), very nice presentation. Menu is not that extensive, which is great, that means they pretty much feature the Filipino favourites. The only disadvantage I see, is that Filipinos who would try their dishes would expect the taste of typical Filipino food. What can I say, we Pinoys are generally unforgiving when it comes to our food.
Longsilog- for those who don't know, is a breakfast staple - fried rice, sausages and fried egg. Their longganisa (sausages) are made in house and it was delicious. It has the perfect combination of sweetness and spice.
Beef pares was drier than I expected. I'm used to the dish having more sauce and a stronger flavour from star anise. The egg on top was a good addition to the dish.
The sisig was good although not as crunchy as I would want it.
I really think this place has the potential to really do well, considering the other Filipino restaurant competitor is way too pricey for what they give.
Maybe introducing special dishes every month would be good so that customers won't get tired of the same menu.
I will definitely be back to try other dishes and will update this review then.
