A new fast casual Filipino fusion spot has opened for business in the neighborhood. The newcomer to Dupont Circle, called The Flipside, is located where Bombay Express used to be at 1829 M St. NW.

It combines Filipino cuisine with Indian, Chinese and even Mexican dishes to produce items like butter chicken with roti, pork belly and brisket bao and adobo chicken tacos. Or, you can keep it traditional, with lumpia, pork adobo on rice or ribs. There's even banana ketchup, the sweeter, tomato-free cousin to the American version.

If you're a karaoke lover, ask for the "golden microphone" and take a turn at the center of attention.

With a 3.5-star rating out of three reviews on Yelp so far, The Flipside has gotten a good response.

Yelper Kiana B. wrote, “I got the brisket and it tasted so much like home. I'm excited to have a Filipino place right around the corner.”

Swing on by to take a peek for yourself: The Flipside is open from 10:30 a.m.–11 p.m. on Sunday-Thursday, 10:30 a.m.–2:30 a.m. on Friday and 10:30 a.m.–3:30 a.m. on Saturday.

It’s wine o’clock somewhere.
