While picking up Toolman for lunch yesterday, I noticed a small Filipino restaurant across the street. I'll be honest, it didn't look all that attractive, since it was in a dumpy strip mall.

As I was paying, the most bizarre thing happened. If you've been reading my last few posts, I've been having really bad luck with places not wanting pictures taken. Well, today it went to a whole new level. I was just about to leave, when

Despite the twilight-zone event, I was still satisfied with my meal and although it looks like a hole-in-the-wall, Aquarius Cafe & Bakery has some good eats. Although I'm not familiar with Filipino food, I can tell that it's authentic. Oh, did I mention it was cheap too? Most items are well under $10, actually closer to $5.

The Good:
- Food is authentic (from what I can gather)
- It's different
- Cheap
The Bad:
- Small restaurant, mostly good for takeout
- Can get arrested for taking pictures???

Wow...seems like your eating brought you into adventurous encounters beyond food!
Hi ac,
Yes, I would say more about it, but I don't want to slander anyone, if you get my drift.
Omg that was too funny. So he wasn't a real cop after all?? He just said he was???
Hi Wendy,
Well, I'm not sure, but it seems really fishy don't it? I was going to just eat at Nando's but I wanted to be a bit more adventurous. Serves me right... LOL...
This place is closed. Just another Indian restaurant there now. Pity, it was quite delicious and the woman who ran it very nice.
