"Like its sister restaurant Bayan Ko, this Ravenswood spot serves great Filipino and Cuban food—just with way more eggs. Their menu has tasty traditional classics, like longanisa garlic rice plates and flaky empanadas, plus twists on American breakfast, like a sisig hash with juicy chunks of pork. Bayan Ko Diner’s space is casual, full of paintings of the Philippines and Cuba, and has lots of room for walk-ins. But as expected from a city that loves eggs on Saturdays and Sundays, that’s when this spot is packed. So if you’re planning on getting their Cubano breakfast burrito full of saucy ropa vieja this weekend, definitely book a reservation." - adrian kane, veda kilaru, john ringor
