Lunch delivery from Klasik Inasal and Noodle Express

Happy Tuesday! It's rare for us to have anything delivered on a weekday, but well we have no viand to go with our rice so might as well order Filipino food. Last week, we had Chinese cuisine which goes well with rice, this week it's Filipino food. I have ordered from Klasik Inasal in the past and I ordered three same dishes: Shanghai Roll, Pork BBQ Skewer, and Eggplant Omelette ( Tortang Talong ). 2 orders of Pork BBQ Skewer and I apparently made a mistake and only ordered one serving of deep-fried Shanghai roll Eggplant Omelette (Tortang Talong)   Party Tray I ordered two viand (ulam) so we have something to eat for the rest of the week. Hubby kept saying will two be enough for the rest of the week. He doubts my food budgeting skills lol. I understand his hesitation since the "party tray" we ord

Filipino Food in Metro Vancouver

I grew up in the Philippines, and I have been supporting Filipino-owned businesses and entrepreneurs since the pandemic, so I thought of making a list of places I have tried so you can support them too.

List of Filipino Restaurants and Food Entrepreneurs in Metro Vancouver

I will do my best to group the list as well.

Restaurants

These are the places I have been to physically or have ordered for delivery that has a physical store/food truck.

Delivery

These are Facebook pages that I have ordered from for delivery. I thought of dividing this list further depending on what they sell: savoury dishes (ulam) or sweets and snacks.

Savoury Dishes

Here is a list of Facebook pages that offer savoury dishes (ulam).

Sweet Dishes

Here is a list of Facebook pages that offer Filipino desserts and snacks.

How to add your business to this list?

Since the pandemic, we can only support restaurants and entrepreneurs who can deliver to our place near South Granville in Vancouver, and we only order on Saturday. Send me a message on Facebook with your menu so I can order and support your business. Kain Tayo!

Lunch delivery from KamayKainan

Happy Friday! For lunch today, I had Filipino food delivered from KamayKainan Facebook page . I ordered three things: Kare-Kare, lumpiang shanghai, and pancit palabok. I made a terrible mistake and gave the wrong address. Instead of our street, I gave the closest cross street. Big facepalm. They're nice enough to deliver it still to our house. This is our order from Kamay Kainan Facebook page in Metro Vancouver Kare-Kare Creamy peanut butter stew with shrimp paste (bagoong) is so delicious with rice. Their spicy bagoong is amazing. This is the kare-kare with most meat and vegetable I have tried. There's not a lot of sauce (compared to Tasty Pinoy BBQ Skewers at iba pa and Cooking Ng Ina (putaheng Pinoy) , but the amount of meat and vegetable more than compensate for it. I love how soft the beef is.

Where to get Buko Pie in Vancouver?

I am craving for Filipino buko pie, but I don't know where's the best place to get one that will deliver to our home. I asked the Facebook group I belong to and below are their suggestions: Vancouver Restaurants with Buko Pie Kumare Restaurant and Bakery - They have a branch in Richmond, Delta, and Vancouver. Hapag Ihaw Ihaw Filipino Grill - Two people, recommended the buko pie from Hapag. They're located in Victoria Drive, Vancouver. Aling Mary's - They're located in Main Street, Vancouver, and I have ordered a buko pie from them in the past, but I know they don't deliver. Home-Based Online Vendor with Buko Pie Pinay Bakes - Facebook page - Two people recommended their buko pie. Ruby Lyn Dacanay - She's the first one to send me a private message and pictures of the buko pie, and it looks great. Do you know of other places in Vancouver that serves buko pie? Leave a comment below so I can include them on this list.

My Birthday Celebration: Cake from Arts to Bakes

It's my birthday weekend. We went to my parent's place in Richmond, BC, to celebrate. Don't worry, we didn't invite people to the celebration - it's just seven people and two households. The first household is me, and my husband and the second household is my parents and three siblings. Mocha Cake from Arts to Bakes KayeBakes CA is my go-to cake source, but Kaye is busy, so I asked the Filipino food group if they would please recommend a place or person who bakes delicious mocha cake since I really want it for my birthday. The first comment recommended Arts to Bakes. I sent their page a message and asked about the price, delivery, etc. Mocha Cake from Arts to Bakes in Vancouver, BC. It's too pretty to eat. I am delighted with the mocha cake. It's beautiful, and more importantly, it's delicious. The cake is moist, and initially, I thought the coffee flavour is too strong, but with each bite, including the buttercream, it's perfect. The sweet chocolate

Lunch at Marutama Gaiden

It was raining most of the day. Hubby and I spent a good two hours playing Pokemon Go, and I needed delicious ramen to warm up. I remember walking past this place that we haven't tried, which was Marutama Gaiden. Hubby had the Shoyu Ramen, and it was delicious. I had the Miso Ramen. It was good, but I think the Shoyu Ramen is better. The MFC fried chicken was crispy, crunchy, and surprisingly light. Meanwhile, the gyoza is as expected. The service was excellent and food was served quicker than I thought. Be sure to have a credit card or debit card ready, since they DON'T accept cash.

Dinner delivery from Subway

We watched Touch Your Heart Korean series, and they kept eating at Subway. 🥪 Because of the series and because Green Bay Packers and Buffalo Bills both lost their games today, I need to stress eat, so we ordered from Subway. Subway Hubby ordered a 6" Chicken and Bacon Ranch Sub Melt Combo with two White Chip Macadamia Nut Cookies and  Brisk® Lemon Iced Tea. I picked Chicken Caesar Large Wrap with Savory Caesar sauce. I prefer the Chipotle Steak & Guac Wrap last time . I hope you had a happy and restful Sunday.
