Luzviminda Grocery and Restaurant

Luzviminda Grocery and Restaurant serves Fords, New Jersey with a combination Filipino market and restaurant that provides comprehensive Filipino food services to the Central Jersey Filipino community. The name "Luzviminda" refers to the three main island groups of the Philippines (Luzon, Visayas, and Mindanao), signaling the restaurant's commitment to representing the full diversity of Philippine cuisine. This dual-format business allows Filipino families to both dine on prepared foods and shop for ingredients to cook at home, making it a crucial community resource. The grocery section stocks hard-to-find Filipino products, while the restaurant serves authentic dishes representing different regional Filipino cuisines. Luzviminda creates a cultural hub where Filipino Americans can connect with their heritage through food, both by eating traditional dishes and by cooking them at home with proper ingredients.
