Anyway, I asked him again what he'd like to eat. He said ube Ube ice cream, to be specific. Last night, I searched for the best Filipino restaurant in Vancouver, and Pin Pin Restaurant is highly recommended.
Pinpin Restaurant
We arrived at 2 in the afternoon, and the place is still packed. In the 1 hour, we spent there, I don't think there was an empty table. This place is popular.
They have an extensive menu of Filipino favourites. We ordered things I don't usually cook at home (yes, I cook Filipino dishes).
Pork BBQ
I ordered the Pork BBQ value meal. I haven't found an excellent Filipino-style BBQ here in Vancouver, and I'm happy to share that Pin Pin delivered. This is the best Filipino-style BBQ I've had in a long time.
Lechon Kawali
Hubby had Lechon Kawali, and it's different from what we're used to seeing. It was good, as well.

Bangus Belly Sinigang
Hubby loves sinigang, and I don't cook it as often as I should be, so we ordered it as well. I love the level of sourness, and it's perfect for the cold weather.

Pork Sisig
This smelled so good when it arrived at our table. I didn't enjoy it as much as I should, given we had so much food on the table.

Ube Halo-Halo
The best ending to any Filipino meal, halo-halo. We love the big scoop of ube ice cream too.Ube Halo-Halo |
Will I be back?
Yes! I'll come back for the Filipino BBQ! I'll order dozens. I'm kidding. I wanted to try their pancit too, but it seems unwise to order more food since it's just the two of us. Surprisingly the sisig is so much better when I reheated it at home for dinner.
