Big Boys Kainan - Kent (WA)

5 /5 Theresa Ocfemia: This new and updated menu is delicious! The fact that a restaurant has committed itself to bringing the same flavor but prepare the food in a healthier way is inspiring and you can tell the Chef is passionate about what they make here at Big Boys. It is on the pricier side but you get what you pay for. Well worth the drive from the north side!

2 /5 Erika: I got their spicy poke bowl at a food truck event. It was pretty expensive for what was given. I think the poke was less than 1/4 pound and the rest was rice. If I had to ball park it, maybe 1-1/2 table spoons of poke. Pretty disappointed and paid over $20 for this. Lastly, it wasnt spicy at all. I know people have different thresholds for spicy but not even a kick.

5 /5 EM T: My friend took me here and I can see why it’s his favourite restaurant. The food was fresh and delicious. Their soup was refreshing and I loved they paired different sauces with menu items. They were so kind and even gifted us a bottle of hot sauce. Definitely will come back when I visit Seattle :)

3 /5 Mahak Mithani: Sometimes, things are so hyped up that you convince yourself to take a 45 minute detour from the place youre already late for, just so you can get lunch at this place youve been seeing on Instagram CONSTANTLY. Thats what I did with this Filipino joint that primarily operates as a food truck. I have a love/hate relationship with food trucks. Theyre super cute and convenient, but sometimes the schedule they post on social media is inaccurate or they run out of fries just before you get there. So I pulled up to their brick and mortar establishment instead. Lengthy research on Yelp left me confident that a chicken adobo garlic rice bowl was a solid choice. I was expecting an explosion of flavors, but I was left underwhelmed. I had to douse a generous helping of sriracha over my plate just to feel something. The calamansi juice was actually a freaking revelation and Im forever grateful to this place for introducing me to my new favorite citrus fruit. It was the only thing that quelled my internal regret as a sat alone in the restaurant, earplugs in my ears, Netflix on my phone.
