  2. You no call it a Filipino restaurant. Owners like to distinguish themselves as Filipino Moderno or Filipino gastropub, you know just to keep-up with the rest of these specious restaurants popping-up.

  3. The gas might be a product of some decay process.

  4. I was walking by Tues night when the DOH was slapping the "closed" notices on the window, and a man in a chef's outfit was standing watching. I said something about them being shut down and the chef said "gas leak". Uh huh.
