What's travel without trying different dishes of the places you visit? How I missed this place where I can Eat the best "Pancit Palabok" ever! I was so excited to eat this delightful pancit, before I realize to photograph the dish, my plate is already clean! No trace at all!
If ever you will stop here in San Juan City I challenge you to try Tita Lulu's Pancit Palabok! Located just across N. Domingo St. in front of Puregold supermarket. In a very affordable price of 35 pesos per serving.
*pansit palabok – [n.] garnished white noodles. the name of this dish literally came from the Tagalog word palabok meaning “garnishment, decoration, or embellishment” referring to the pleasing garnish sprinkled on top of bright and flavorful orange sauce (from the extract of pounded boiled shrimp heads or talangka) or sautéed kalkag (dried tiny shrimps). To complete and make the toppings more attractive, a scoop of grated or finely crushed pork chicharon, dash of crumbled fried garlic, and finely chopped spring onion is added on top the sauce along with a slice of hard boiled egg and sometime pieces of peeled cooked shrimps or tinapa flake. A piece of sliced calamansi (Philippine lime) is also included which the diner would squeezed to add the lemon’s juice into dish. (a.k.a. pansit luglug)
