Our Story

More than just Food

"I’ve always believed that the kitchen is the heart of every home. However, that’s not always true when you have a job to attend, mouths to feed, and bills to pay. Nevertheless, once in a while, a good home-cooked meal serves as a necessary reminder to enjoy the simple things in everyday life. This philosophy has been true for me since my youth and continues to hold significance to this very day.

 

Growing up in my home country, the Philippines, my siblings and I worked very hard to earn money. My older brother, Romeo, who was an especially picky eater, couldn’t wait to finish the day because it meant we were closer to supper. My mother always prepared his favorite meals, and it consistently brought joy to his face, even in his worst moods. Although we didn’t have much as a family, we were always grateful for each day given.

 

Fast-forward many years later, I started a restaurant in dedication to my brother, Romeo, who still lives back home. Our menu is inspired by my family’s secret recipes and Filipino cuisine. More than that, we strive to deliver wholehearted food for the busy individual, the community member, and the passionate foodie lover. We’re very thankful for being included in the community and for every person we get a chance to feed."
