K & K Orient Valley Food Center

Love the lumpia here! Only thing I’ve tried from this place so that’s why I’m giving it 4 stars

We got hungry for a Filipino Fiesta (feast) but I didn't feel like cooking all the different dishes that I want just for the three of us; Kare-kare, fresh Lumpia, dinuguan with puto, sisig, pancit, bibingka, ginataang bilo-bilo and of course garlic fried rice. So off I went three cities east of us (11 miles) to get the food we're craving. It's like a Pinoy buffet but with left-overs. Fred is so happy with KK Orient Valley Food Center in Escondido, CA. He's kinda picky with Filipino food, it has to taste authentic not Americanized, nothing bland, and of course fresh. Bonus is the pricing. Very reasonably priced. I pre-ordered a half tray of Kare-kare and requested no tripe. They accommodated my request and no extra charge for the customization.
This is a point-point joint but you can pre-order trays of food if you want. During this Rona season, no eat in allowed, keep your social distancing, wear mask, and be considerate.
So totally worth the drive for this home style cooked Filipino food. I would definitely recommend this place for your Filipino food craving without breaking the bank.

Hot amazing dishes ready all day. Very best lumpia! Small market with all the Asian treats. Never once disappointed. Service is fast, friendly and helpful if you don't know just ask.

Came here on a Saturday morning. Restaurant is located in a strip mall so there's a lot of parking. Although they open early, I would suggest to get here after 10:30am so there's more selections.

Food:
2 Item Combo
Pork Sinigang
Chicharon
Pancit
Tocino and longanisa with rice
BBQ stick

The chicharon was the highlight for me. The pork sinigang tasted good but the meat was hmmm tough and maybe previously frozen hard, cooked, then chilled again. But, again the soup was delicious.
The tocino was also delicious however the longanisa to me is a hot dog. I had ask again what that meat was and they said longanisa. Had to also ask what dialect or where in the Philippines is the style of cooking is from and one of the workers said Ilocano. So, I'm Ilocano and the Ilocano longenisa I know is with vinegar flavor and not like a hot dog. Oh well.
The suman was equally as good too.

Service was great and there's a little market for some Asian items.
I will definitely return to try the other dishes.

Yummy food
