I wanted to try something new and I noticed this highly rated Filipino food takeout/restaurant not far from my neighbourhood. It's a cozy spot with a few low benches and tables for eating in. There are photos of all the menu items on the front of the counter and walls, giving the Tagalog and English names of each dish. The person behind the counter was very pleasant and helpful. The price was good. I tried the beef pares silog and the sweet pork silog with rice (which comes with two eggs on top and small side of something similar to coldslaw with a vinegar taste) both dishes were tasty. The beef was delicious. The eggs and rice were good, they have that slightly more authentic flavour than plain eggs and rice youd make yourself (maybe its fish oil?). I want to go back and try new dishes! There was a short line on a weekday evening. The wait is 10 minutes or so for the food. I later learned from my coworkers the next day that the silog was something normally only ordered as a breakfast food. But I thought it was good for dinner anyway!
