We're watching Slam Dunk on Crunchy Roll just for weekend relaxation fun. I am craving for ice cream, so we ordered French Fries and McFlurry from McDonald's delivered by SkipTheDishes.

It's the weekend which means we can eat "takeout" food. :) For this week, I'm supporting a fellow Filipino in Metro Vancouver - Big Boy's Pagkain. Their business model is different and amusing, check their website to learn more.
I purchased three dishes from their Party Trays menu this week: Spring Rolls, Tofu Sisig, and Caldereta.
The serving size is enormous! I didn't expect it to be that big, which is impressive. Big Boy's Pagkain is value for money for sure. We will have enough food for a week.
I wish the caldereta is a bit spicier, but I think that's just my preference. However, the beef is tender which I like.

The tofu sisig is delicious after it has been reheated. Although I think I would prefer the tofu chopped smaller just so it would have the same texture and feel as pork sisig. Maybe I'll slice the tofu before reheating it next time.

My favourite among the three is the spring roll. I think it just tied or slightly exceeded my previous number 1 from Little Ongpin.
We received two trays of Spring Rolls! |
Be sure to try food from Big Boy's Pagkain. Below is their menu for the week we ordered:
It was a hot day (hottest of the year so far) and hubby requested that we get something cold like ice cream. We decided to order drinks and dinner from Tim Hortons.

Food and writing have become my escape and a happy place. I decided to join a Facebook Group "Filipino Food Vancouver" to discover more vendors of Filipino cuisine and support kababayan here in Metro Vancouver.
If you check my last few posts, it's mostly Filipino cuisine in Vancouver. It's like an obsession to support fellow Filipino during a pandemic.
For this week, I discovered that a Facebook Page is selling Ilocos Norte Empanada and Longganisa in Vancouver. After a week of figuring out the schedule and logistics, here we are enjoying our Empanada.
