"Open for: Dinner, weekend brunchPrice range: $$Cleveland’s Filipino food scene is fairly limited to a handful of small markets and restaurants. Flora Grk addressed the need for something more by opening Tita Flora’s in Independence. The chef sticks with traditional dishes, setting a high baseline with crispy lumpia, pork sisig served on a sizzling platter, pork adobo redolent of soy, garlic, and vinegar, and comforting pancit with tofu, chicken, or shrimp. Meals end with halo-halo loaded with ice cream, evaporated milk, crushed ice, and toppings.Vibe check: Flora is an incredible ambassador for Filipino food in Cleveland and a welcoming host." - Douglas Trattner
