Dining options have grown over the years. But, there just seems something about Filipino food that makes me crave for it once in awhile. It's kind of like when you wander far to the most amazing places but then, you know your heart still wants to go back home. So this time, I ended up trying Mangan which specializes in Kapampanan food.
I've always believed that Kapampangan food is one of the tastiest of our local cuisine.
Having had several food trips in Pampanga, I would say this is up a notch over the restaurants there when it comes to interiors. This makes it more appealing to expats and balikbayans.
