More information on Mabuhay Cafe & Restaurant

Filipino cuisine, which is known for its strong aromas and questionable main ingredients, is not at all common on the mainland. And dishes such as Stewed Goat or Broiled Pork Intestines will probably never make it off the islands. However, this restaurant offers a number of flavorful dishes, including Pork Adobo, Chicken Mami and Lumpia, that are more widely served. Some of the house specialties, such as Poached Fish with Watercress, and Pork Paria ($6.55) will probably appeal to open-minded diners. Beer and house wine are served.Takeaway available.
