Dinner was at the old Saison space. It was pretty cold.

Banana hearts, coconut milk, monggo and a coconut curl of some sort. It looks like chicharon, but it’s not.

Overall, the food wasn’t bad, but it wasn’t Filipino food, just vaguely inspired by. As a meal, I found the food under seasoned. If it had been one course of this food, it would be okay, but taken as a meal, it left me a little hungry (thank god for the bread) and not quite satisfied.
