How Filipino Adobo Became a Southeast Alaska Staple | Eater

"A cozy, old-school Juneau diner a short distance from the Mendenhall Glacier that locals praise for its rich, regional-style adobo. Plates arrive in almond-shaped gratin dishes with a glossy, molasses-dark sauce studded with whole spices (coriander, clove) and a gravy-like thickness that leans sweet rather than tart; chicken and pork versions are commonly ordered. The squat red building, pleather booths, thick-walled coffee mugs, and a wooden flounder under the rafters give it a homey, intergenerational feel, and elders and longtime residents regularly cite its adobo as emblematic of the local Filipino–Alaskan food tradition." - Jennifer Fergesen
