Hogs Face BBQ is a new food truck in the area. Don't let the name deceive you - their specialty is…read moreAsian inspired food - mainly Filipino dishes, where the recipes come from the owner's mother and grandmother. It's something new for this area. That they're open during the winter, and opened during the coronavirus time is wonderful.
They have a basic menu every day, but will add in some other dishes and every couple of days, a special dish. So, in other words, customers will always have something new to try.
I've tried several items, both the usual, and the special. One of the standards, the Kimchi Chicken sandwich is very good. With a big slice of chicken and just enough kimchi to bring out the flavors and mix the textures, it's filling and a just-one-more-bite sandwich. The mango smoked pork riblets are good, although a little sweeter than I prefer. I'd still get them again. The Adobosilog is good, but for me, so far, the Filipino Hash, available on the breakfast menu, is a winner. Made with fried potatoes, Tocino bacon and eggs, it is exactly what the name says: a Hash. Too bad they don't serve breakfast all day because between that and the Lumpia, I'll always have something when I can't make up my mind.
The one item I really didn't care for: Binagoongan Sa Gata. Not sure why, exactly. I like that it was a hearty dish, with bold flavors, but there was just something that overpowered it - maybe it was too much fish sauce. The Sticky Fries with the honey sauce, are okay but I can pass on them.
The menu is available on line, but they also have a QR. A scan of that can get the current menu, and, if you want, you can order, and pay at the same time, or pick it up at the window.
If you see them around, you owe it to yourself to try. The nicest people serving good food. It's a win all around.
