A typical Filipino turo-turo restaurant (meaning point-point a la Panda Express), Kainan Sa Kanto is a hole in the wall serving up the usual culinary comfort food of the PI.

After browsing the daily selections, I ordered a 2-item combo with lechon kawali & dinuguan Lechon kawali - Ginormous, thick chunks of fatty pork. Bring it on, baby! With the crispy skin, unctuous fat & tender meat, the lechon delivered. A healthy dip in Mang Tomas All Purpose sauce or vinegar with garlic & chili, and it's on & cracking.

Dinuguan - aka chocolate meat, a pork blood stew, I was disappointed that the usual tender cuts of the pig head weren't used to make this. No ears, snout & other goodies for me to savor. Still, it wasn't bad, but not the dinuguan I was hoping for.

Other dishes available included sisig & whole tilapia. The sisig didn't look very appetizing, which resulted in me not picking it for my combo. I had to ask for the complimentary soup with my order, which was sinigang made with pompano. Kainan Sa Kanto is a popular catering option from what I've heard from others.

Minimal seating inside, with various bagged goods for sale on the left of the restaurant. The lady working the counter was friendly, making my to-go combo order quick & easy. A small parking lot shared with other businesses is available if you can find a spot within it.

Kainan Sa Kanto offers decent Filipino food when you're in the mood for fatty, salty, starchy gratification. Not one of my most favorite spots in the general area, Kainan Sa Kanto is a respectable option if you're hungry & happen to be closeby.
