Kalan Restaurant and Catering Services has been feeding Winnipeg's North End from 1449 Arlington Street for years, and the welcome has never changed. Ours is a casual, cafeteria-style Filipino restaurant where the food is laid out on the steam table, the portions are generous and the prices stay friendly. Filipino families, shift workers on their way home and first-time guests curious about the cuisine all end up at the same counter, pointing at whatever looks best that morning.
Because you can see the food before you order, Kalan is one of the easiest places in Winnipeg to try Filipino cooking for the first time. Ask our staff what a dish is and they will tell you — then hand you a plate of the real thing. We are minutes from William Whyte, St. John's, Inkster-Faraday, Point Douglas and Garden City, with easy parking on Arlington Street and quick access from Main Street and McPhillips.
Filipino Dishes Winnipeg Diners Order Most at Kalan
Filipino Breakfast Plates – Tocino, Longsilog and Tocilog
We open at 7:00 AM every day, which makes us one of the few places in Winnipeg serving a proper Filipino breakfast. Our tocino — sweet cured pork, caramelised at the edges — is the dish guests name first, plated with garlic rice and a fried egg as tocilog, or swapped for sweet longganisa sausage as longsilog.
Pancit, Lumpia and Filipino Stews for Lunch and Dinner
Through the middle of the day the steam table fills with pancit stir-fried noodles, crisp lumpia spring rolls, barbecue pork and fried chicken, and slow-simmered stews such as adobo. It is the same food we pack into party trays for Filipino catering across Winnipeg, so the plate you enjoy here is exactly what arrives at your event.
