The magic lives in the surprising twists at this Silver Lake spot: Taro-based laing becomes a creamy dip for housemade focaccia, kare kare is luxurious with crab fat and macadamia, and crab-stuffed tortang talong (eggplant omelette) dazzles with calamansi aioli. Add a soundtrack of live music, and you’re sure to be hooked.
