Everything we devoured last weekend at @eatgalak first pop-up @mimischukadiner 📍 Somerville 

Thank you to @chefashleylujares @peeetahhhhh and the Gálak team for this delicious experience bringing comfort Filipino & Vietnamese eats together. This was my first time at Mimi's and I love the retro diner aesthetic of the space. Will definitely be back.

Now for the mains. Dare I say that Gálak's fried chicken recipe and gravy sauce tastes x1000 times better than Jolibee 😳 One of the best fried chickens I've had in a LONG TIME and I'd come back again for it. My other favorites were the glizzy, which the sauce combinations went so well together. You could really taste all the different flavors, it was an explosion of flavors from sweet, savory, spicy, to creamy. The appetizers were simple and the flavors were familiar, with the exception that the toppings on the corn made it extra savory. 

The fish filet was not like anything I've had before and it wasn't until I re-read the menu, googled what rillette was and understood why the inside of the patty looked like a paste than the tear apart fish that you'd expect at a Mcdonald fish-filet. The thick sauce on top included both caviar and Vietnamese sa tế tartare which gave the whole sandwich a fishier and spicy kick. If fishy is your cup of tea, you'd love this sandwich.

Overall it was a great experience coming to fusion pop-ups. There were familiar and unique/different flavors I've haven't had before, especially with the fish fillet sauce.
