"A food truck-turned-restaurant, CheBogz serves authentic Filipino dishes in its Beacon Hill space. The name has a double meaning. “Chebogs” is a Tagalog slang term meaning “to eat” while “Chez” and “Bogi” are the nicknames of owner Trixia Parais’s mother and father, respectively. Start with an order of crispy pork lumpia but save room to dig into mains like longganisa ( a Filipino sausage) grilled pork ribs, and beef kare kare served in a rich peanut sauce. Vegetarians aren’t forgotten about, with veg-friendly options like tofu and vegetable sisig. Wash your meal down with calamansi juice, a tart and refreshing Filipino citrus fruit." - Alicia Erickson
