Any thoughts about this chain?

The menu is very different in the United States than it is here in the Philippines.

    I'd try about everything on the menu.  I've had a lot stranger breakfasts than those.

    Thanks for all your posts, interesting to see.  Never heard of bangus before.  How is it?

        Interesting.  So far only one location in Los Angeles but not geographically convenient.

        I'll have to try it if ever in the area.  I'd go for a couple of the drinks.  Corn and coconut... yum!

            Hot dogs are the same as sausages for Filipinos. They are breakfast food here.

              Looks like the place to go if you've had all the crispy pata you can handle.

                Didn't know what this was so I Googled it. Count me out!!
                Crispy Pata Ingredients:


                • 1 Pata (front or hind leg of a pig including the knuckles)
                • 1 bottle of soda (7Up or sprite)
                • 1 tablespoon of salt
                • 2 tablespoons patis (fish sauce)
                • 1/2 tablespoon baking soda
                • 1 tablespoon of monosodium glutamate (MSG)
                • 4 tablespoons of flour
                • Enough oil for deep frying
                • Enough water for boiling
                Crispy Pata Cooking Instructions:


                • Clean the pork pata by removing all hairs and by scraping the skin with a knife. Wash thoroughly.
                • Make four to five inch cuts on the sides of the pata.
                • On a deep stock pot, place the pata in water with soda and salt. Bring to a boil and simmer for 20 minutes. Then add the baking soda and continue to simmer for another 10 minutes.
                • Remove the pata from the pot and hang and allow to drip dry for 24 hours. An alternative to this is to thoroughly drain the pork pata and refrigerate for a few hours.
                • After the above process, rub patis (Fish Sauce available in Asian markets) on the pata and sprinkle flour liberally.
                • In a deep frying pot, heat cooking oil and deep fry the pork pata until golden brown.
