| - Tasty small selection of Filipino food and Good variety of Filipino cakes and mamon (Filipino sponge cake). Red Ribbon is known for their variety of mamon and cakes. Their Forrest, ube, and mango cake are my favorites. I LOVE their mocha mamon, but there's also the butter mamon for starters.
They have a small selection of food, which is perfectly fine, but I will say that I come here specially for either the Arroz Caldo (chicken rice porridge....ask for lemon packets and fish sauce on the side because it is delicious with those!) or Pancit Palabok (Filipino noodle dish...look it up. Also, good with lemon). You can order those ala carte or as meals (I know a couple of options comes with your choice of empanada or slice of cake). You can order Palabok as a party tray as well, but just be sure to invite me.
I know there's two other Filipino restaurants next door to Red Ribbon that carry Palabok, but I really enjoy theirs. If you like thick noodles, look elsewhere though.
Their Arroz Caldo is delicious for a cool day or just to feed yourself after grocery shopping.
When you're done eating, don't forget to purchase a hug full of mamon for work, family, or friends. They taste so light and good!
