Junior Filipino, a vibrant gem in Saint-Henri since 2014, brings a slice of the Philippines to Montreal with its heartwarming and flavour-packed dishes. Known for its comforting yet exotic Filipino fare, Junior’s menu takes you on a journey through the archipelago’s culinary traditions. Classics like pork adobo, lumpia, and vegetable stir-fry in coconut milk sauce dominate the dinner menu. Sunday kamayan feasts are the best, however, in its cozy 32-seat dining room and colourful décor.
As for brunch: Their coconut waffles paired with lechon—a juicy, crispy-on-the-outside pork belly—offer a mouth-watering start. If you’re craving something more traditional, their silogs (garlic rice, fried egg, and your choice of meat) are a solid bet, as are favourites like fried chicken and longganisa sausage.
