When the longing for authentic Pinoy dishes strikes in the U.S., Isla Grand stands ready to transport your taste buds back to the Philippines.

Carmina is traveling to the United States to spend time with her family. My dad planned a family gathering for Mother's Day at their favorite Pinoy restaurant . Since reservations aren’t possible, we arrived an hour early to ensure we could get a table for twelve before everyone else showed up. As my dad approached Isla Grand , the branch we visited in Pleasant Hills, California , the host at the door said they could prepare a table for twelve at five o'clock. Later, the server called my dad's name and guided us to our table. The place was bustling with people enjoying meals and celebrating Mother's Day.

Mom Violy Craving for Fried Tilapia in California


Mom Violy started missing fried tilapia in California where you can purchase it fresh from Lion Grocery Store.

Carmina was able to go inside Lion Grocery Store going to the seafood area where you can get a number and wait for someone to call it.


You can inform the person what type of fish and how many by deciding what number you want to have done.


Carmina asked for #6 on Mom Violy's tilapia and milk fish for the family member.



TIP:

It is best the milk fish (bangus) is slicing this way it is easy to remove the bones eating it the safe way.

NOTE:

Carmina is not selling or advertising for fried fish of your choice from Lion Grocery Store.
