Culinary Philosophy

The menu at Iskooink Chicharon primarily revolves around one beloved dish—chicharon. They feature multiple varieties, including the Large Pork with laman, Large Lowfat, and Large Chicken Skin, as well as options that mix them for those who can't choose just one. With five different chicharon platters, everyone can find something to satisfy their cravings. Each portion is sizable, balancing flavor and texture perfectly. Prices average around $30, making it a reasonable treat.

Beyond the chicharon, the menu showcases scrumptious options like Lomi, a savory noodle soup packed with vegetables, meat, and hearty broth, topped off with boiled eggs and even more chicharon for added crunch. The combination of textures and flavors promises a fulfilling meal that resonates beautifully with Filipino cuisine's essence. Customers often highlight the importance of pairing the chicharon with ATSARA, a sweet and tangy condiment that elevates the dish with its contrasting flavors.
