Pogiboy will be a playful and energetic fast casual concept as the highlight inside DC's The Block Foodhall & Bar. It will bring Filipino-American food to the greater Washington, DC metro area in an approachable, accesible experience.
In Tagalog, Pogiboy translates to "handsome boy," a playful nod to Filipino Chefs Tom Cunanan and Paolo Dungca's childhood. Memories of playing, learning, eating, and helping their family in a restaurant bring back nostalgic carefree times for Cunanan and Dungca—lending to their inspiration to bring that cherished and innocent, childhood joy to Pogiboy.
