Never been a fan of tuyo. Too salty and the vinegar dipping sauce doesn't help.

Tinapa on the other hand (smoked), I enjoy. It's good with munggo soup and pancit palabok.

Moving on, I've been eating a lot of longaniza recently. Homemade with some rice and eggs. Yum. ^

Just had a Filipino dinner with a few others, our table dined on:

Bangus Sisig - Made up of boneless bangus (milkfish) cooked with onions and sweet chili peppers, serve don a sizzling plate.

Beef Steak Tagalog - Thinly sliced beef cooked in soy sauce and lemon juice and topped with slices of onions, served with white rice.

Lechon Kawali - Crispy deep fried pork belly dish served with a side of lec hon sauce

Adobong Kambing - goat adobo - tender goat meat stewed in garlic, onions, vinegar, and soy sauce.

Fried Chicken - Specially marinated chicken, deep fried making it crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside.

Laing (with Shrimp) - Spicy dish made from dried taro leaves and made creamy by using rich coconut milk with shrimp and shrimp paste for added flavor.

I really enjoyed the Bangus Sisig, ratios of items were spot on, flavors fresh & deep, the skin became almost like a potato chip, the whole dish just worked, fantastic.

"Filipino" Fried Chicken was juicy, perhaps a hint of curry in the coating, was tasty but I don't need to order again

For a "veggie" dish, the Laing I would have liked to be more funky with shrimp paste, I really couldn't detect any, still a very good dish and one I'd order again.

The goat adobo was not as stellar as before but I did notice that it got better after it cooled off a bit. I'll still order this again next time.

Lechon was crisp skin, good fat & meat.

The tagalong had a beef jerky like flavor, good but don't feel the need to order again.

I will for sure get the bangus sisig, goat adobo and liang next go around, but will delve deeper into other options.

Thanks work2fly on the feedback^

Goldilocks @ SFO T1
 
I was pleasantly surprised to see a Goldilocks open in T1 in SFO during our wait for an early morning flight recently.

We were able to grab spam & eggs over garlic rice for breakfast at the gate and enjoyed our siopao and empanadas on-board.

Upon our return, we picked up Bicol Express, Chicken Curry, and Lumpia for that night’s dinner!

They have fairly generous hours (4am to midnight) and make a great addition to T1!

We have a Jolibee opening soon here in South Florida. I hope Chow King and Goldilocks will soon follow. I can get some Goldilocks' bakery items at a nearby Asian shopping mart, but they are made in the San Diego area and shipped with a shelf life that means there are many preservatives in them.

Chiming to update the Filipino restaurant in SFO T1 was renamed from Goldilocks to Mama Go’s Filipino Cuisine. Same owner / management / food, just a brand change.

Which airlines are they at? Is that SFO T1? Is that where I can get a lunch. I would like to try. I am sure if I buy a lunch before I go back to PHX.

I posted the menu and a photo of my Sunday breakfast in the more general thread, but it would also qualify as Filipino food, e.g. danguit, thanks to my wonderful Visayan (Siquijor) wife. 💚

Yes, at T1, near AA gates, and you can get lunch plates there. Here’s a menu from November for an idea of what they carry nowadays.
ETA: QR code in the photo is still up-to-date to order ahead.
