you can say that the market is a melting pot of different cultures - there are thai dishes from kub kaow thai, spanish tortillas from mantequilla, MSG-free dimsum from cantonese home kitchen, french breads from ru de pain, and turkish pastries and desserts from anatolia cuisine, etc. for filipino fare, there are the cherished family recipes of la cocina de tita moning, seafood flown in fresh from roxas city (my hometown), kuchinta from bulacan, ilocano dishes like bagnet and empanadas, cebu lechon and pritchon, kalinga organic mountain rice, ineng's famous bbq (one of the many reasons why i go here!), capampangan products, among others.
