"Cebu blazed a path for Filipino cuisine in Chicago when the family-owned restaurant debuted five years ago in Bucktown. Now it has relocated to Lakeview with a new restaurant that opened on Thursday, June 27. The new venue offers a case full of cookies, pan de sal stuffed with corned beef or ube and cheesecake, and to-go options like a breakfast burrito with tocino and garlic rice. The menu features items such as Silog, pandan pancakes, ube waffles with fried chicken, and tres leches French toast. The Tans describe the menu as modern Filipino with various influences, including Mexican, with dishes like adobo chicken chiliquiles. They are considering dinner service and possibly expanding cocktail offerings in the future." - Ashok Selvam
