Mang Mar's Chicharon — Restaurant in Toronto

Ordered through Uber Eats.

I got the fried milkfish with fried rice and egg, I also got the Shanghai rolls.

The Dangsilog which is the fried fish wasn’t cooked very well. You can still taste the fresh fish. The fried rice seems to be from previous days left overs as it was so hard. They could’ve microwaved it and I’d be okay with that. It appears it just came out of the fridge. The fish is so small that I felt it was a rip off. They also charge for atsara which is very common to be included in silog meals. Charging it is a bit too much.

Shanghai rolls is the same thing. It wasn’t thoroughly cooked. You can still taste the fresh meat and I wasn’t happy about it.

The kare kare was outstanding too, could taste the different cuts of meat and tendon I believe is in it, all cooked to very soft. The sauce was excellent too and flavorful, but what made it even better was the side sauce that I think has shrimp paste in it. Those together with rice was an excellent combo . Would drive out of my way just for...

I recently tried crispy pork belly from this Filipino store for the first time — and wow, it absolutely blew me away! The pork belly was incredibly flavorful, with perfectly crispy skin and juicy, tender meat inside. Every bite was rich, savory, and packed with that deep, roasted goodness that makes pork belly such a treat.

Even though it was my first time trying pork belly, this experience was well worth it. You can tell it was made fresh with care and authentic flavor. I’ll definitely be coming back for more — this place knows how to...
