lutong pinoy: filipino flop in earls court

Add to that spectacular salads, wonderful seafood and the classics of Lechon, Adobo and Kare Kare and the cuisine of this country of 7,000 islands was quickly promoted into the top ten of EAT MY GLOBE.I am never quite convinced that because a restaurant is filled with ex-pats it is de facto any good.

Being born in a country does not mean you are automatically an expert on your home cuisine, but the fact that Lutong Pinoy in Earls Court came highly recommended and seemed to cater exclusively to elements of London’s 200,000 strong Filipino community augured well as we entered the tiny little restaurant in Kenway St.Service was charming and slightly eccentric that was definitely “authentic” (there’s that word again) so was the menu, which had all the staples I grew so fond of during my short visit.

There are few things that fried pork can’t improve and things perked up when a plate of crispy pata arrived.

It should come to the table sizzling on a cast iron plate so that the meat becomes crispy and the underside forms a crunchy crust that Filipino men can fight about over a beer.

Our version was spicy enough but served on a plate that had not been heated enough so lacked any sizzle leaving it as just a tray of chopped meat with too much chilli.If that was a disappointment then worse was to follow with the arrival of the Kare Kare, a stew of oxtail made with a peanut sauce.

Well, Kalesa is unfortunately closed now, despite my ringing endorsement.

But there have been other changes within the London Filipino food scene that far outshine the closure of one restaurant – changes that continue to make me tremble in excited anticipation that, yes, Filipino food will one day make it.

Certainly one to watch – Rex de Guzman is a bright young thing seeking to bring contemporary Filipino food to the London restaurant scene.

Considering that Filipino food could be seen as the first true ‘fusion’ cuisine, it makes sense that Filipino fusion would eventually hit London.

Check them out for their crispy pata, one of their Specials of the Day – it was pretty stellar when I had it!
