This place is awesome! The owner Julius Tacadena is the coolest, sweetest, and most kindhearted young gentleman you will ever meet! I tried the Uber Banana Pudding which was a hit! Tho it was not gluten-free as it has mini vanilla wafers, Julius is willing to make it for me gluten-free without the wafers! I My friend and I also tried the Tomato Jam + Egg over rice, and that was really good too! I made a comment to him "You guys are SO accommodating in such a small space" and he said because it's their slogan "Everybody eats". He owns the restaurant with Francis Almeda who also owns Side Practice Coffee right next door to Kanin! And he owns Novel Pizza in Little Village. This grand opening on the very first day was a blasting little Saturday lunch for me and my friend in the neighborhood! I will be coming here 3-5 times a week! Keep it up Julius! You're awesome!!
