Chicagoland Filipino Food Sources ( Restaurant / Fastfood / Grocery / Store / carry-out / shop / catering / cuisine /oriental ) - compiled by The Reader 201105email @ the-reader.webhop.net Please help me keep this list updated! I don't rely on advertising to keep this list online. As of 12/10/2011 NOTE: Most Chinese restaurants (As well as Spanish, Mexican, Indonesian & Malaysian restaurants) will have cuisine similar to Filipino food. Some will actually have real Filipino food on their menu like "Crispy pata". After all, how many variations are there for deep-fried ham hocks? Also, most Asian/Oriental stores carry Filipino items e.g. Rice, Banana catsup, lechon sauce etc. ** Please call the store to verify the address & store hours! ** 3 R's Oriental Foods 2712-14 W.
