Loca Over Locavore

My 2 favorite K's (Kimi and Kai) were in Pasig so what did we do? We tried the newest restaurant to pop up in our hood: Locavore.

I arrived in Brixton 3 minutes earlier than their opening time. I was silently panicking why the whole establishment looked closed but a few minutes later the bamboo gate opened and as I heaved a sigh of relief.

I was the first there and although I asked the waiter if I could place my order in advance (in case our orders took time to be prepared) he assured me that it should be easy and quick. Okay then!

We ordered  Lechon & Oyster Sisig (yum!!!).

As well as their Sizzling Sinigang. It works! Yes, it's kinda weird to find your staple sinigang dry but this one is good. Lemony and salty aftertaste that complements nicely.

Very pang-instagram lang ang setup.

Another angle because why not.

Their turon dessert, however, was a scene stealer. Locavore gave a whole new meaning (and look) to the classic merienda that we Filipinos love. The flaky crust, albeit a bit on the oily side, was delightful to the mouth. Pouring that dulce de leche on the turon makes everything even more sinful so make sure to share it with someone.

If you're in the Kapitolyo area, give it a shot. I hear this place gets packed so best to come in early.
