Paradise Supermart

My favorite lechon place. This store has all the unique things I want to find in Safeway but cannot. It’s a little store but has a cafeteria style food area with so many good Filipino dishes.

This is probably the best place on the rock to get your Filipino shopping list done. From prepared foods, to snacks, ingredients, and household goods. ATMOSPHERE: It's a mini supermarket full of Filipino goods with a hot food line and small inside seating area. FOOD: Pancit A mix of bihon & yellow noodles with meat & canned (bleh) mushrooms. The flavor is on the light side but nothing soy sauce can't help. Chicken Adobo They use drumettes, which I love due to their bone and skin... Yum! In the past the flavor was very over-powered by vinegar, but has since been tamed down. Pork & Peas Great flavor, tender pork but there were hardly any peas. Mongo Beans Ahh my favorite dish here! It's a thick, flavorful soup made with chicken, bitter melon, garlic, onions and a whole lotta love. Chopped Steak This is delish! It's a twist on the local chopped steak as it comes with crunchy green beans, red bell peppers, and onions. Savory goodness. Chicken Papaya The first couple of sips lit up my tastebuds but it ended up being too vinegary. What was vinegar doing in this dish in the first place? Anyway, the slices of green papaya were firm, and they use chicken wingettes as opposed to boneless breasts which was a positive for me. Axe the vinegar please! Roast Pork The slices of pork had both dry and tender pieces, drowning in gravy, just how I like it. It was tasty but just a tad bit too salty. SERVICE: The staff are very friendly and fast. TIP: They've had some red placards (food safety violations) in the past few years so I've stopped eating here. OVERALL: Great food, good prices, mainstream portion sizes.

OMG! It's still amazing here! Me n my wife visited Maui several years ago and she found this place. Then we had every meal here till the end of our trip. Today, i came back with my father. Their food is still as tasty as day one. Staffs are super nice too! Highly recommended everyone to come n try out!!
