Manila Sunset

Tukwila, WA

“Manila Sunset Tukwila represents the Washington state location of the pioneering Filipino restaurant chain founded by Ben and Lorna Halili in 1985, bringing the family's authentic Filipino cuisine to the Seattle metro area. This restaurant carries on the Manila Sunset tradition of specializing in rare Filipino delicacies rarely found even in the Philippines, including their famous bibingkang galapong and puto bumbong-traditional Christmas treats normally found only in church plazas and roadside stalls during the holiday season. The chain's signature dish, pancit Malabon, follows an original well-guarded recipe from the fishing village of Malabon, prepared by one of the few cooks who truly knows this delicacy. Tukwila's location near Seattle-Tacoma International Airport places it along a major corridor serving the region's substantial Filipino population. Manila Sunset continues the family mission of serving Filipinos in America who have missed these foods while gaining approval from diners of all backgrounds curious about Filipino cuisine.”
