Checked out this little gem while visiting family in Dagupan. The staff was really attentive and the food was delicious! We ordered the chowder, crispy pork kare kare, American pork adobo and dirty rice. The truffle mushroom chowder can be a meal on its own! Super savory with an umami-ness to it. I am sure I will be craving it again! The crispy pork kare kare has a slightly more sweet flavor compared to traditional kare kare. This was a pleasant surprise, as the crispy lechon, bagoong and the slightly sweeter peanut butter sauce balanced each other out really well. Nice touch on the knotted green beans too! The American pork adobo is also a different take on traditional adobo. It's like a super tender, braised pork with a thicker adobo glaze and poached egg. This was the clear winner for me! The dirty rice was a nice complement to the entire meal. All in all, this is a great place to eat. I look forward to visiting again!
