Fab Feb Food: Rumpa

After watching the fancy balloons' flight at the hot air balloon fest, and having had no sleep at all the night before (a story which deserves a separate post), me, my boyfriend and several friends headed out from Clark Airfield to find some place to eat. We actually had no idea where to go, but after much walking and talking, my boyfriend got us all to AC Rumpa.

Although the name may remind you of midgets with green hair and orange skin, don't expect any fancy candies produced in this restaurant. The place is actually a bit no-fuss, no-frills, and straightforward, although it's obviously an old house converted into a restaurant.

We were lucky we got there before noon so we hadn't any difficulty getting a table. It didn't take long before the place got filled with people. Apparently, Rumpa is quite popular to both locals and people visiting the area.

I sampled their very popular barbecued spare ribs and I must say it was very satisfying. The meat was succulent and so tender they were sliding off the bones. We loved it so much we decided to order another pair (for me and my boyfriend) to takeout.

Although we wanted to try out original kapampangan cuisine and Rumpa didn't quite fit that bill, it was still a good brunch. At least for hungry people like we were.
