Once in a while you crave that Pinoy flavor your taste buds know so well. If you were like every other Filipino kid on the block, you'll definitely miss eating meals from the Philippines. 

There are a lot of great eateries in the Unites States, but there are time that it just doesn't satisfy you. The Pinoy taste is very unique and restaurants in the Philippines cater to the flavor that Filipinos are after. For the longest time Pinoys overseas had to wait until they return to the Philippines to eat at their favorite local restaurants.

Thanks to the popularity of the local restaurants, the word has spread around the world. Now there are a lot of different Pinoy food brands that are made available overseas. Now Filipinos, and curious foreigners, in the United States can satisfy their food cravings when they feel like it.
