"Born from that upheaval, Lola’s by MFK opened in March 2022 inside the former Calivino Wine Pub in Anaheim and aims to feel like home with comforting Filipino family breakfasts and a full-service, family-oriented approach. I note a menu built around classic silog meals and other breakfast-forward items — ube-infused pancakes and French toast, omelets with chicken adobo, garlic fried rice and yolky eggs, avocado toast, and an unexpected huevos rancheros with charred chirmol salsa to honor Henry’s Guatemalan roots — and the space features a mural of young Henry blessing his grandmother Pacita. Dinner is promised to be more traditionally Filipino with items like braised oxtail kare-kare, a tomato-based lamb caldereta, butterflied whole bangus, and evening kamayan feasts to gather friends and family; Angel Stadium is within walking distance." - Anne Marie Panoringan
