"After years going without a menu, the family-owned lunch counter got a little more structure a few years ago, though you still order at the grocery store cash register. Not changing is the famed salmon collar sinigang from chef Leila Rosas, which helped earn this spot a James Beard Classics Award. If they’re out of that, try the fried bangus, a hot, crispy delight that’s best slathered in the flavorful vinegar. Be advised that they do sell out of dishes, and will close if they run out of food." - Harry Cheadle
