Bites Nearby: Isla Filipino

You could stand on a corner and look around until a restaurant sign draws you in. But we've got a better idea. Each week, Patch picks a great restaurant either in town or nearby that is worth checking out. Here's this week's choice:

 ISLA FILIPINO -- How often are you able to go out and try a totally different cuisine for lunch or dinner? Or maybe you have tried the cusine, but haven't had the chance to really explore all the pleasures of a certain culture. Well, now is your chance with Isla Filipino, a restaurant serving authentic Kapampangan-Filipino cusine for lunch and dinner. The barbecue pork is a highly recommended dish. They also serve a menu of fresh seafood. The place is small and often crowded during lunchtime, which is because they are fast and inexpensive. Get out there and find some favorite dishes from the culture this week.
