\"Balai
\nWhenever my handsome Pinoy friend misses home, he comes to Balai Kainan, a Filipino version of cai fan<\/em> (economical rice). Unassuming with makeshift tables, way too cramp, it is worth coming for the fantastic Filipino food.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"Balai
\nFor $5, you get any 2 dishes and a drink. This means, if you like, you can get 2 whole fish.<\/p>\n

Not in a deep-fried fishy mood that day, I had stewed pork belly<\/strong> and mixed vegetables<\/strong>. The pork belly was spectacular<\/strong>. It was similar to the Chinese style with salty fermented black bean but it had something extra, crushed fresh black pepper, which was sprinkled sparingly. Suddenly you bite into a grain of pepper and the flavors burst in your mouth and you keep eating, longing to meet the next pepper in the pork. The mixed vegetables<\/strong>, pumpkin, eggplant and long bean, was in a goo-ey, starchy sauce, which I normally wouldn’t like, but it was so tasty that I drank up the sauce.<\/p>\n

\"Balai
\nComparing this version to Singapore’s cai fan<\/em>, it is He-Man before and after the transformation, and by the power of Grayskull, the Filipino version is muscled, bold and strong. Highly recommended<\/strong>.<\/p>\n
