Rumbar Plaza Cafe, Renton

Rumbar Plaza Cafe's ample menu augments the selections of a classic American deli with Filipino flavors. Breakfast burritos, normally the territory of eggs, cheese, bacon, and hungry bachelors, get a dose of tapsilog and tocilog—Filipino blends of marinated beef or pork with garlic-fried rice and fried eggs. The kitchen team also whips up combo plates with menudo, pork, chicken adobo, beef caldereta, or dinuguan, as well as traditional caesar salads, reubens, and tuscan turkey sandwiches, the sandwiches most likely to be leaning at a seemingly impossible angle. In addition to wraps, chicken wings, palabok, and sisig, Rumbar also serves beer and wine, hosts Friday-night karaoke, takes pick-up orders, and provides catering for 100 guests or more.
