Kainan Augusto — Restaurant in Pasig

This place is like a typical carinderia but with a more premium feel. Naturally, the prices are a bit higher than you’d find at more basic carinderias.

The dishes here are generally delicious, and the portions are reasonable. If you’re looking for traditional Filipino comfort food served without any pretensions, this spot is a solid choice.

Just be aware that there’s no air conditioning, so it can get a bit uncomfortable if you’re having lunch on a hot day.

In conclusion, this carinderia offers an elevated experience for those who want authentic Filipino dishes with a touch of quality. While a bit pricier than the usual carinderia, it’s worth visiting for a cozy, familiar meal in a slightly upscale, albeit sans air...

Portions are ok for the price. My experience could have been improved if the food was warm. It is super cheap though, I only paid 169. I can only write about...
