This understated culinary gem, seemingly easy to overlook from the outside, offers a vibrant exploration of Filipino cuisine presented in a tapas-style format. Bright and airy, the space operates as a perfect backdrop for its inventive dishes such as halloumi fries complemented by banana ketchup and the impeccable slow-roasted lechon. Embracing Filipino roots with a contemporary twist, the menu delivers standout options including oxtail kare-kare croquettes and torta talong eggplant, which contribute to layered flavor experiences. With attentive waiting staff—particularly a notable server named Thoko, who adds an uplifting energy to any visit—guests are made to feel at home from start to finish. Much loved for its bottomless brunches, the dining experience extends gracefully into evenings where the cocktail list surprises with innovative mixes, encapsulating a lively yet sophisticated atmosphere. Despite its modest presentation, this restaurant does not shy away from elevating traditional flavors into an unforgettable culinary journey.
