Plain & Simpol Reviews
It was nostalgic for me. Their adobo, lumpia and pancit bihon brought me some place familiar. For a moment I forgot where I was because it felt like home. Truly! overwhelming. Ang sarap nila magluto at yung may ari nakapabait. Ito yung siguradong babalik balikan mo. ❤️🫔🫶👋☺️🍴😋
Beef Tapsilog is good. They used brisket. It takes the "Tapsilog" to another level. Another thumbs up is the Ube cheesecake. Can't wait to go back to try another menu.
We tried the new drinks - Buko Pandan___ and Cassava Latte (pardon me, I forgot the exact names),they both were soooo good!
