Trining's Bakery & Cafe

We have been here quite a few times to pickup warm and fresh pandesal as well as a few other times for lunch. Service is consistent, energetic, welcoming and always smiling faces to take your order. Depending on the time of day you visit, there could be a short line or none at all. As for the pandesal, it is good! They’re not the traditional smaller sizes that you would find back home but almost tastes the same and is also packed in brown paper bags. The dough is somewhat airy and not too thick like another local place. As for the dishes, we have tried a few off the regular menu and they’re ok, nothing too fancy, more on the mediocre home cooking side. What prompted me to give a review today was this was the first time we tried their “silogs”. I’m a big breakfast person and always give c

Pretty good breakfast. Got tocino and the longanisa which were both good and the rice was very flavorful, had a nice garlic taste. Lots of depth to the flavor in both dishes. Also got the Ube cheese rolls which were very good.

Trining’s is “in transition” and it shows. The front is a bit disorganized, but well divided into baked goods and ready-made take out products. The menu is hand-written on a wall-mounted white board (see pictures), but is easily understood and clearly legible. Now, for the food—Very good! Loved the lumpia. The sweet chili sauce had just a hint of heat to it. Perfect! We also got chicken adobo and pancit. Both were excellent. Since I ordered two combos to go, I was very careful not to tip the containers and tried to avoid contaminating the pancit with adobo sauce. All for naught. I must have leaned on the brakes a bit too heavily because the very fluid adobo sauce obeyed the laws of physics and colored both the pancit and lumpia. With dark, rich, peppery adobo flavoring. But—it was still

Came to try Filipino food for the first time and safe to say it was amazing. Me and my husband had the tapsilog plate. I had a chicken empanada and my husband had a beef empanada. The empanadas were so good and flavorful. We also had a mango juice that came from a pouch that was sooo good. The tapsilog was so flavorful it combines so well with the white rice and the over easy eggs. Staff were super nice and we went when it was not packed so we dined in and it was nice.

Nice small bakery and restaurant in Mira Mesa strip mall serving traditional Filipino breakfast, lumpia, among other things. I love their Longsilog (longanisa sausage, garlic fried rice, and fried sunny-side up egg). Low key and unassuming, a great nook for breakfast.
