"Like its sister restaurant Bayan Ko, this Ravenswood spot serves great Filipino and Cuban food—just with a whole lot more eggs. They have tasty traditional dishes, like longanisa garlic rice plates and flaky empanadas, plus twists on American breakfast classics, like a sisig hash with juicy chunks of pork and potatoes. As expected from a city that loves eating eggs on Saturdays and Sundays, Bayan Ko Diner’s space full of paintings of the Philippines and Cuba gets very busy on the weekends. But it's a bit more relaxed midweek, so it's easy to walk in on a Wednesday and get their breakfast burrito full of saucy ropa vieja." - sam faye, adrian kane, john ringor, veda kilaru
