There seem to have been quite a bit of change in the tenants that occupy a stall space within the FellasCube coffeeshop situated along Geylang Road ever since our last visit there — for those whom are unaware, FellasCube is the coffeeshop run by the same folks behind KopiFellas. One of the more recent additions to the coffeeshop will be that of Filwest Cusina; these folks had taken up the former premises of the now-defunct Pipa Duck Brioche Burgers there. Filwest Cusina is a stall that specialises in serving up Filipino cuisine and Western cuisine; the menu at Filwest Cusina is split into sections dedicated to Grilled & Fried, 10” Pizza (6 Slices), Finger Food, Rice Meal and Western Menu — most of its Filipino cuisine offerings can be found in the Finger Food and Ricr Meal sections of the menu.

The Sisig at Filwest Cusina is served in both chicken and pork options — we went for the latter. Whilst there is no description of the elements that are included in the dishes in various sections of the menu, it can be observed from our order of the Sisig (Pork) that it does come with pork that has been stir-fried with onions; all that whilst being topped off with spring onions, red chilies and capsicums — all that whilst being accompanied with a sunny side-up as well as a mix of tomatoes and cucumber on the side apart from the portion of rice that is served alongside with it. There is also the inclusion of lime that one can squeeze into the Sisig as well. Having only tried Sisig on sizzling hotplates, the Sisig (Pork) does feel like a cleaner version that can be enjoyed more frequently; this was definitely less greasy and buttery — whilst being less sinful and fragrant, one can still feel the slightly roasted notes of the pork as well as the meatiness of the dish in general, all that while the meat does carry a good bite without any undesirable porky stench and is well complimented by the sweetness of caramelised onions as well. The mayonnaise thus bind everything together, though it is the lime zest that really gives it a zippiness that adds on another layer of flavours alongside the capsicums and chili that accompanies it.
