My jaw dropped when the service staff brought my order of luncheon meat with fried rice - the portion was huge ! Love the vibes here …. It has quite a large al fresco dining area which is windy , & an indoor space with a simple stage for karaoke / live music … menu wise is a mixture of wines & Filipino cuisine … conveniently at Novena mrt & open everyday …. Live band from tuesdays to sundays

I was there for dinner with a friend. We had a serving of Fish & Chips each. The breaded fried fish was done so well, very crispy on the outside and nicely done fish meat inside. Paired very well with the tata sauce provided. The side dishes were freshly made. Very crunchy vegetables and french fries. The ice lemon tea was prepared according to our tastes. Overall it was a lovely experience. I would definitely return for meals next time.

Great coffee & friendly staff. Erick & his team have it absolutely dialled in. Funky vibes with plenty of cool & quirky board games.

It's a small place with a cosy atmosphere. We had lechon, Shanghai lupiang, sisig, sinigang and the chicken cordon bleu. It was like comfort food and we were satisfied with the meal! There was also a live band that sang really nicely! Their interaction was great too with the crowd. We were also very satisfied with the waitress Anna Goh who was so attentive and friendly to us, it made our experience even better during the meal. A good place to try out Filipino dishes!
