One day of shocking portions and prices of Filipino fried riceš¤Æ
š Tinuno, Toronto: A Filipino Feast Thatās All About Quantity (With a Side of Authenticity) Yes, you read that right: This mountain of food (for 2!) plus two chicken skewers, with tip, came out to $56 CAD. Portions? Insane. Flavor? Decent, if basicāno wild seasonings, just straightforward, homey eats. š Whatās in the $25 Per Person Spread? The star is their signature hand-cranked rice platter, loaded with: Milkfish, squid, and mussels (fresh, if simple) Pork skewers and grilled pork slices (tender, lightly seasoned) Eggplant, okra (charred, earthy) Shrimp (plump, cooked just right) Mango salad and oranges (bright, fresh, a nice contrast) Underneath it all? Garlic crispy riceāoily, fragrant, and so moreish. Need seconds? Itās free, but letās be real: You wonāt. We left stuffed. š¢ The Extra Win: Chicken Skewers Added two (skewers) on a whim, and they stole the show. Tender chicken with a tangy, sweet sauceābright, zesty, and way more flavorful than the main platter. š® Why It Feels Authentic Packed at mealtimes, mostly with Filipino localsāalways a good sign. The menuās no-fuss, the vibeās casual, and it tastes like home cooking (no frills, just hearty). š” Verdict Not life-changing, but fun to tryāespecially if youāre new to Filipino food. Go for the novelty, the portions, and those chicken skewers. š Tinuno (chaināhit up the location nearest you!) #TorontoEats #FilipinoFood #TorontoFoodie #CasualEats
