Customers can also choose to nosh on the popular Filipino roadside snack,— hard-boiled quail eggs that are fried and glazed with a sweet and sour sauce; Isaw, which refers to or siomai, which is a Filipino version of a Chinese dumpling. The two-day menu is a departure from Kimshaker’s regular party trays of bistek and carbonara pasta.

“We are so overwhelmed with the response of our customers, not just with fellow Filipino but some Canadians too and different nations,” the restaurant said in an Instagram chat, explaining that the sixth- month anniversary menu is its way of thanking New Westminster residents for their patronage and positive responses.
