    This place was recommended by a local who was born and raised in the area (my favorite places).  She recommended the Garlic Furikake Chicken plate, so we got that along with Pork Adobo before heading to the airport. It was kind of a buried treasure, as it was a little hard to find in an industrial strip mall-like area. The food was excellent though – we really enjoyed the chicken as well as the tuna macaroni salad side.  Be sure to add the Chili Peppa Watah saice to the pork if you like Carolina-style vinegar sauce.

    Excellent stop!  Really enjoyed the Serrano (yes, the pepper – had some kick) as well as the coconut, ginger, turmeric and lemongrass. Very unique and very tasty!

    Great little surprise stop on a rainy day.  Average atmosphere almost resembling an older diner, but the food was great.  Enjoyed the extras the most – first the fried cream biscuit with jelly and topping off the meal with a macadamia nut dessert.  They were both delicious! Of course the rest of the meal was great also – but I love the sweets and that is what I’ll remember…

    Love the atmosphere and wasn’t very hungry, so had the caprese and its excellent!  My wife had the pork nachos, which were also very good.!
