    So wonderfully local, sustainable and delicious! There is a 25 cent vegetarian tax if you're using a card and don't plan on getting extras with your meal ($7 card minimum)

    Delicious stuff for sure but if you're like me and need a little veggie with your meal, Get a side salad with your pulled pork sandwich to counter a little bit of the grease

    Penny is awfully sweet, they roast their own coffee, and they make a damn good frieg egg sandwich for only $6, on a fresh baguette. 🤩🤩

    Pancit, sotanghon, all their homemade Filipino comfort foods are delish and usually vegetarian!

    I would walk past a protest for the tomato mozzarella sandwich or the pork adobo. Today I did.

    The pulled pork adobo gets all the love, but peppered turkey or the mozerella tomato sandwich also rock.
