| - Day after Christmas, there's no way I am eating turkey dinner left overs for breakfast so I hauled my family to Served. I've been wanting to try this restaurant for months now and I was not disappointed. Our server was super nice and energetic. My daughter and I ordered tocilog and longsilog, definitely a cultural dish on one of the islands in Southeast Asia.
The tocino meat tasted homemade, lightly sweet, seasoned perfectly but the meat was cut too thick.
It was hard to chew. I was expecting a thinner slice of meat. I got a bite of the longaniza (sausage), it was lean and tasted fresh, seasoned just right.
The server stated that they cure their meats and make sausages from scratch. They do taste fresh and homemade.
The dish came with this amazing garlicky pan fried rice, pickled papaya (only a spoonful, hoping for a decent size), 3 sunny side up fried eggs. They even have the exotic blend of white vinegar for dipping the meat.
Our other guests ordered the Seoul Benny Benedict and it looked yummy, anything with Korean grilled short ribs is heavenly! the Huevos Rancheros breakfast looked like a hot mess (lol) on the plate with so many components on top of each other but it tasted equally delicious accdg to my friend. I wish I had a bite to kinda' give you more of how the flavors came together.
The Benedict's menu is a must. It's definitely a fusion of flavors and this restaurant offers an eclectic menu that keeps you wanting to go back for more and try some interesting dishes.
A great place for breakfast!
This is a minimalist, casual dining joint.
The chef comes out and takes his time to greet all his diners...impressive!
