Opened in 2021, Abaca is one of the most celebrated Filipino restaurants in the United States, and in 2022 it was singled out by the New York Times as one of the best restaurants in the United States. Francis Ang and his wife Dian offer a modern Northern California take on traditional foods they grew up with. The multi-course brunch will feature a tower of savory items that include lumpia, seafood tempura and buttered pandesal (bread rolls) with seasonal spreads. There will also be scrambled eggs and other dishes along with pastries from the restaurants in-house bakery. Even if you think you don’t like-or don’t know-anything about Filipino food, Abaca will be a revelation.
