iSLAS means Islands, a Filipino restaurant located in Parkdale, Toronto. The name “iSLAS” represents the 7,641 islands that make up the Philippines. Filipino cuisine is a blend of Austronesian, Malay, Chinese, Spanish, American, and indigenous influences. The flavors are a combination of sweet, sour, salty, and spicy. Vinegar is a common ingredient, and dishes like Adobo are popular. Rice is a staple and is served with various meat, fish, stew, soup, and vegetable dishes. Filipino meals are communal and informal, and traditional meals include breakfast, lunch, dinner, and meriénda (afternoon snack). While utensils like forks, knives, and spoons are used, the primary utensils at a Filipino dining table are the spoon and fork. Eating with hands, known as “kamayan,” is also a traditional practice. iSLAS aims to introduce Filipino cuisine and hospitality to Toronto, and invites guests to embark on a culinary adventure to savor the diverse and flavorful Filipino dishes.
