We hosted a large corporate event (with 50 people) and the event went smoothly with everyone being engaged at each station learning about proper cutting techniques, use of spices (new and commonly used), information about the local farms they work with and much more! The way the class and stations were set up allowed for easy networking among the guests and fun conversations with the chefs. Food was amazing and all our attendees enjoyed the charcuterie table they had set up while socializing beforehand and during the cooking class. I am also very grateful about the venue being extremely flexible with scheduling and allowing access to the building as we had a lot of deliveries & pre-event set ups that needed to be brought in for our event. Guests were thrilled to receive the recipes for all the menu items we made after the event as well. The only challenge we had was the limited parking available, but luckily there is a free municipal parking lot right across the street so it all worked out. Would highly recommend hosting a private event or attending one of their regular cooking classes. May and her team are very professional and passionate about what they do, and it shows!

They are usually well stocked most especially right before the holidays when all the other groceries are running out of those essential herbs and spices. I did notice this past year that some of herbs right before Thanksgiving were $1.99 instead of it usually being $0.99. But it doesn't bother me much especially when they're all fresh, fully stocked, and each bunch contains a lot more than the local groceries.

I come across this "Health Food Herb Center" touting "meatless deli" to which I respond with a dash to the door. Upon walking in to this mysteriously [almost] meatless grocer/deli, I am in awe of their grocery options. Frozen mock meats (yes, an entire Thanksgiving faux turkey!), herbs/spices, cookies, teas, pastas, all sorts of incredible things! Then I get back to the deli counter, I was a little confused at first because there was some standard Boars Head fair. BUT ALAS, up in the top left corner, large deli-style loaves (I don't think that's what they're called but I'm going with it) or turkey, corned beef and salami. I opted for the salami, the lovely lady behind the counter let my try it first and my mouth erupted with salty, smokey flavor close enough to meet that I was beyond satisfied but not too close that I was hesitant. She LOADED my wrap with salami, carrots, onion, beets (shredded, she promised I wouldn't be able to taste them and she was not wrong), cabbage, vegenaise, oregano and cayenne pepper. There are very few things within the vegan spectrum that I salivate over, this was within the top 10. I grab a handful - okay 9 - of the various cookies and am on my way back to the office. Unwrapping this masterpiece had me as giddy as Jim Gaffigan when he eats bacon, there is some hardcore food envy from my non-vegan desk neighbors. The wrap was full of fresh, vibrant flavors, I could not be more thankful that this gem exists. These guys will make me look forward to coming to this office every single time now.

Seating is available, but we chose to take it to go. As for the goods, get ready to devour some of the best coffee/desserts you've ever had! I decided not be basic for once and pick something new. And I was not disappointed in the least! - The Cassava Latte "Inspired by the Filipino dessert cake, made with condensed milk and coconut. Contains dairy": Beyond amazing!! Sweet and uniquely flavored, I could go back for this guy day in and day out! It also made me want to try cassava cake because it's just so good. My friend got the ube latte which was okay, but if you want a supremely delicous latte, I'd try this guy out! - Ube Champorado Croissant: Flakey and buttery, with a generous amount of ube filling. Adult and child tested and approved!! Definitely takes your basic croissant to the next level! - Chocolate Kouign Amann: Perfect cheewy, flakey texture with just the right amount of chocolate. Not overwhelmingly sweet. This was probably my favorite of the two! If you haven't yet tried Ayala Coffee, you really should add it to your list! It's worth every penny!

Both…read moredrinks tasted exactly like their names and had a rich, smooth flavor without being too overly sweet. For savory items, we ordered the tocino sausage and spamganisa sandwiches w/ egg added. My boyfriend thought the spamganisa needed some sort of kick like hot sauce, but we both agreed the tocino tasted better: it had a nice balance of sweetness and savoriness. For sweets, we ordered the caramelized honey butter toast and ube champorado croissant. The honey butter toast was aesthetically yummy, but was difficult to cut into and the bread tasted slightly overcooked so it was hard to bite into. However, the ube champorado croissant had a nice crunch and ube filling inside! The service was quick, the area where the cafe is located is nice and the decoration and lighting made the cafe very aesthetically pleasing. However, they do have limited seating, but if you go around the morning on a weekday, there might not be too many people which is nice if you're not into crowds. We would recommend: Tocino sausage sandwich, Ube and Leche Flan latte & Ube champorado croissant We would definitely come back to try out the other drinks and food options!

Qsina 8 in Union, NJ, is an acclaimed Filipino-Asian fusion restaurant. Diners and costumers like…read moreme praise the authentic homestyle dishes, standout flavors, generous portions, and exceptionally very friendly and warm service, though some of my companions note a plain ambiance and higher price points ( for me their pleasing food quality and taste outweighs the price ). The Chicken Sisig, Palabok, pork BBQ and sizzling Biko with ice cream are a must-try from the food menu. The appetizers, like the piping hot vegetable lumpia and their humongous portion of Halo-halo as dessert are highly recommended by me and other reviewers. When we dined at this place, the whole staff gave me a feeling as if I was eating at an aunt's house, with the owner and staff providing very welcoming, family-style care. I have been living in NY for more than 30 years, have already eaten in so many low and high-end Filipino restaurants, in terms of food quality and taste, I may say this by far is the best that I have experienced. If given the chance to be in New Jersey again, I will definitely, 100% be back to this place for their delicious and flavorful food. Some of my companions point out that the seating area is relatively small, which can lead to limited availability during peak times, and a few note the interior decor is fairly plain but it did not matter to me because the food that I ordered/tried were great and amazing (properly spiced, cooked very well and soooooooo delicious!! ). Food portions are generous, presentation was appetizing and excellent, staff service was attentive and great ( I noticed that our water glasses were always filled up which is a service very consistent in so many high-priced restaurants that I have been ). Table setting is good, food utensils and plates were very clean ( yes, I checked it! ). I am extremely satisfied with my food experience and the hospitality of the owner and their staff in this Filipino restaurant. HIGHLY RECOMMENDABLE!!!

Service wasn't that great and we were the only customers there at the time then other guest staggered in . I'm all for restaurants thriving and always wish them luck but holy cow prices are crazy average appetizers are $16.50 or more and entree dishes are $25 or more for serving sizes and flavors are really lacking in a lot of dishes . Lechon was cut thinner not the usual big chunks and the oil tasted old and was greasy . Sinigang with the Baboy was very underwhelming the Baboy wasn't boiled down enough . The sisig has too much of a soy sauce taste and way too much mayo on top . The chicharron bulaklak was okay could have used a bit more seasoning and seemed to be a popular item that day . The BBQ stick was decent but not for $18 . Being Filipino myself I know everyone has their own way of making certain dishes so people may like it but in my opinion I've had better at a few other spots . Wishing them all the best .
