π΅π Perla | Kamayan Feast in Philly β Eat with Your Hands! ππ€²
Finally tried Perla β a modern Filipino spot thatβs been on my list for months. Cozy yet chic vibe, perfect for group hangs. They serve a Kamayan Set Menu β $50/person. When the food comes out, itβs spectacular β a whole banana leaf spread covered in dishes. Feast for the eyes and mouth! π₯ π½οΈ The Kamayan Spread | Super Generous Menu π Sinangag β Garlic fried rice, fluffy and fragrant. π Chicken Inasal β Lemongrass-grilled chicken, juicy with a slightly charred skin. π· Crispy Pata β Deep-fried pork knuckle β crispy skin, tender meat. Dip in vinegar-garlic sauce! π₯ Lumpia β Filipino spring rolls, crispy and filled with pork, veggies, and ginger. Sweet chili sauce on the side. π Whole Fried Pompano β MVP! Crispy outside, tender inside, served with a tangy sauce. π₯¦ Ginataan β Veggies (eggplant, long beans, cauliflower, pumpkin, zucchini) stewed in creamy coconut milk. Mild and sweet β balances the rich meats. π« Dessert β Chocolate coconut pudding (Filipino sweets tend to be very sweet, no further comment π ). π· BYOB β Bring your own drinks! Thereβs a Fine Wine & Good Spirits two blocks away β grab some wine or beer to pair. π° $50/person β so much food, so flavorful, still thinking about it days later. Great for groups, super fun experience, warm service.
