Another economic casualty has struck the East Village... and among MY people. Elvie's was the only Filipino joint that I had eaten at multiple times. Multiple times, because of the familiar food that reminded me of my grandmother's cooking, but mostly because the dread and laziness associated with the train ride to Queens/Jersey City to eat REAL Filipino food was unfathomable. Will miss the pinakbet... Paalam na, Elvie's.

Elvie's Filipino Joint: Peaced, Dunzo, Kaput

Pig Candy
This seems like an interesting treat, or at the very least a playful attempt in originality. There is a Filipino chocolate breakfast rice porridge called Champorado that is at times eaten with dilis--tiny, crispy anchovies. The salty/sweet taste combination seem similar to the choco-bacon. Sorta.
