We have been looking forward to this one, too. Love all of the restaurants inside the store. Just wish its grand opening wasn't on a Thursday morning.

I wonder...can you get authentic lumpia at this place??
My old business partner Leo was Filipino...and he used to cook lumpia for us once in a while...I tend to like more vinegar dipping than most people..but the way the seasoning soaks through the vinegar...holy cow...that stuff is addictive!!...one of my all time favorite foods... used to down them by the dozen

100%. But my wife makes Lumpia from scratch that is so good I don't get all that excited about store bought stuff.

They also have so many authentic Filipino dishes available. Not to mention a full Filipino bakery and Filipino desserts.

We have one near us but it's in a bad neighborhood so Lucy won't go there anymore. Her sister was there once and got stuck for hours because someone tried to rob the place and they sealed it off as a crime scene for hours.

YEs they have great food inside, and ours has a travel agent to book tickes to Philippines.

And yah to Madcard homemade lumpia is the best. Lucy is trying to make bibingka now she's having issues getting the right ingredients we were actually talking about Seafood City would have it but again she hates the neighborhood.

There's one in San Mateo I think that's famous because they do song and dance there on Friday nights. Turns into a party or something I think it's san Mateo might be Daly City

I stopped by on my way to Costco to see how busy it was on a Thursday afternoon at 1pm. There wasn't a single parking spot available on that side of the mall. Crazy packed! Not sure how crazy the inside of the store was.

We were there just after about 4:15-4:30. Parking was crazy. It was ridiculously packed inside. You could move around a bit but you couldn't get near most food places - huge line to order and just as long a line for pick-up. Shopping areas were less busy until you looked for the lines to the registers, and it would make you reconsider waiting that long to purchase something.

Signed up for the app to get a free t-shirt for my wife, looked around for a bit, and decided we will return after the crowds go down some.
