Kubo
A Filipino kitchen in the village center serving lechon kawali, sisig and kare-kare that draw a devoted following.
Kubo brings a Filipino kitchen to the middle of Bethany Village Centre, and it fills a gap the neighborhood did not know it had. Lechon kawali, sisig and kare-kare anchor a menu that draws a devoted following, with the kind of bold, home-style cooking that builds regulars fast.
The space is small and the flavors are big, so it works well for a quick dinner or takeout night. If you are new to Filipino food, the counter staff are happy to point you at the right first order, and the kare-kare is a safe bet to start with.
Local tip: The popular dishes can sell out toward closing, so an early dinner is the safe play.
