I'm a street food lover,also a bbq vendor, became a Lead Cook at several Filipino restaurants around LA county, owner of a fast food kiosk back in the philippines. Congratulations to your business. I have few questions, comments, advise, opinions & suggestions to share that may add or contribute to this type of food business.
Consistency - Marination Quality & quantity. ( hair & feathers on pork ears , chicken skin) Pork intestines smell & taste. Price per stick. Quantity is just not satisfyingly enough for $1.25. Food shouldnt have taxes as far as most food business owners know. Other charges: we ordered worth $30 of bbq's & ask to place then in a tray or togo box, they said we need to pay that, why? This is the only food business entire the globe that charge a payment on trays, styro boxes. Small businesses like the lunch trucks, its all free. Vinegar dip, this one look different & taste different everyday. Inconsistent. My opinion/suggestion/ advise :...
Read moreCame here to try out their skewers since I've seen it pop up on the maps as recommended when I'm in the area. I have to say, the food is really hit or miss, but kinda can't blame them, given their pricing and their target demographics.
Every skewer is priced at $1.50 with one of the intestine being priced at $1.75 each. Do take note that, not every skewer is allotted the same amount of food. Some of the skewers within the same group aren't even close in terms of how much food is on there. Some of the skewers have one less section to em than others in the same plate, so keep an eye out.
If I had to say, safest choice for skewers would be the meat ones, as those are somewhat hard to go wrong. We've tried the liver, but it was too dry after they cooked it, so I would stay away from this one.
Lastly, I would recommend getting the tiny fried fish, as they're a pretty good portion for snacking, with minimal intrusive flavors, but still...
Read moreFun experience especially if you like to try new things. $1.25 skewers that they grill or fry for you. This is traditional Filipino street food from a particular province (not sure exactly where). The flavors are good (mostly sweet), and they also have bowl options.
The skewers are the main draw here. They have unique items such as lobster balls, squid, pork blood cubes, beef liver, chicken hearts, intestine, skin, etc. I stick to the basic pork and chicken which are traditional.
I also had the pares beef bowl that came with a side of broth. I did not recognize the flavors of the sauce or the soup, but did detect a hint of anise stars and pepper. I was not too fond of the taste, but it might be because I was expecting something like my mom would make.
The service was super and all of the employees were super...
