I just found out that this beautiful restaurant is closing and I am super sad. it isn’t close to my house so I haven’t visited in a while, and now I wish I really did. I had the tapas which were absolutely delicious, especially with the garlic rice and the carrot pickles.

Oh wow every bite was so delicious! We had the Chicken Sugba, Chicken adobo, grilled eggplant, dumplings, fritters... The rice and the sauces were all remarkable. Everything had an unexpected flavor and it was all completely excellent. The owner was right there asking us about our meal and navigating our toddlers food allergies, we cannot wait to go back again.
