"Brunch might be our favorite meal at this East Village Filipino restaurant from the team behind Semma. People sing along to old-school Pinoy hip-hop tracks and make their way through multicolored cocktail samplers. The breakfast platters come with garlic rice, fried egg, fried tofu, pickled papaya, and your choice of vegetable or protein (the juicy pork longganisa is great), plus a rich, savory bone broth. It’s hard to choose between crab omelette and lumpiang gulay, but make sure to get a salted egg pancake for the table." - bryan kim, willa moore, molly fitzpatrick, will hartman, sonal shah
