This Orange County Filipino Restaurant Fought Flames to Save the Family Empire - Eater LA
"MFK by Aysee was originally opened in Anaheim but was relocated to Bellflower. The restaurant features a more grill-focused menu in a fast-casual setting, serving plated versions of dishes like barbecued pork belly, bangus milk fish, and garlicky chicken adobo alongside pancit noodles and lumpia. The venue was reborn in March 2021 after the original location was destroyed by a fire in September 2020 due to spontaneous combustion of cooking oils. The Bellflower location offers a fresh start for the Pinedas, who continue to cook Filipino food for a new audience." - Anne Marie Panoringan
