I just stumbled upon Namit Cafe at 2114 W Lawrence Ave, Chicago, IL. They do kamayan, cakes, karaoke, and more.
“Kamayan” is Filipino for eating with your hands. If done as an intimate communal feast spread on banana leaves, it is called a “boodle fight”. Food tastes better when eaten with your fingers, but don’t lick your fingers! Use the fingers of one hand for the food but don’t let those fingers touch your mouth.
Bonus: Fewer dishes to do!
