Ordering Strategy
This is a sharing menu. Grab a noodle dish (specifically the Palabok) as your base, add a heavy meat main like the Adobo or Pata, and check the specials board immediately for the elusive longganisa.

Good to know
The space is small and cosy, so reservations are recommended. It is located on a very busy road but is quiet inside.
