Filipino Food - The Kula Kart - SW 2nd and Stark

** Update ** A sign on this cart today indicates that, due to family matters, the cart is closing and may return in the spring. **

I originally visited this cart the first day it showed up at this location, and was the first customer of the day. The owner was still setting up the propane tank when I arrived. I ordered my food, took it back, enjoyed it, and ... didn't have time to blog about it.
So I went back today, after running into a coworker waiting for his food. (He wasn't injured)

The Kula Kart had been a wandering cart, from what I understand, and is now trying out a downtown pod very near where the now departed Heart Cart sat.


The main offerings are pork and chicken Adobo, in plate or sandwich form, and pork or vegetable Sinigang. Bilo Bilo is on the menu, a tapioca and cococut cream treat with seasonal fruit, that I'll have to try some time.

I went for the pork Sinigang, which is served over rice and carrots and arugula, with a Lumpia, which is very much like an egg roll -- and a lemon wedge.

VERY tasty stuff, just bursting with flavor. Various sauces are provided, from sweet to super-spicy. Naturally, I loaded mine up with spiciness because I love to break out into a sweat while eating my meals. The Lumpia was delicious, crisp, and... I could see myself getting into trouble if more than one were offered.

This is good stuff. I'm not by any means an expert on Filipino food, but I very much enjoyed this and will certainly be back for more.
