"Ruby’s Fast Food has been serving Filipino food in the neighborhood since the 90s, but moved to a new location in 2022. Originally a “turo-turo” or “point-point” restaurant, where you point at pre-cooked dishes in steam trays to order, their new spot is much larger. It feels like a neighborhood sports bar, with plenty of tables, TVs on the wall, and bar seating. Some of their standout dishes are the kare kare with oxtail in a creamy peanut butter stew as well as their garlicky and spicy dinuguan. But every visit should include an order of the crispy pata. The massive fried pork leg is a balanced combination of buttery meat and crackly skin." - john ringor, adrian kane
