This question is for non-filipinos. What is the best filipino food you have tried?!
Answers: My husband and children r Filipino, but I am white. So when I married I had no choice but 2 learn 2 cook the food. I can cook a pot of chicken/pork adobo and my kids will live on it 4 a week. If they had the choice they would eat it 4 the rest of their life. I think adobo is rather boring. My total fave is lechon with that sweet sauce it comes with, but I will have a heart attack after 2 peices so we only have it on the holidays. Ooh, I want some right now damn it. We live in the mid of nowhere. Every so often we take a drive 2 Vegas and raid the Filipino stores. I also love longanisa, if I spelled that right lol. I appreciate most of the traditional foods but they get boring really fast--curry chicken--punsit--lumpia--tilapia. But I can never get enough siomia, sometimes in the molo soup yum. But I bet I didn't spell any of these things right. I know how 2 cook it and eat it. U can't ask me 2 spell it right as well lol. Now I think I am gonna cook something, u made me hungry:) PS: I don't think I know any white person that like halo halo including myself. I dont like ube at all. But weird-- I do like pande ube or pande sol
lumpia-- the only filipino food I tried.
crispy pata.
can be greasy as hell, but it is a unique experience to eat deep fried, crispy pig's feet.
Lumpia. We eat it with sweet chili sauce and rice, and it is about as good a dish as I have ever eaten.
I am a former chef from Canada and have a number of Filipino friends and was invited to a gathering years ago and had "Lechon" with the liver sauce, I also used to live around the corner in Toronto Canada from a Filipino grocery and Hot table shop, I used to get Adobo w/rice and boiled bananas, washed it down with an ice cold "Sarsi"
OMG, Filipino isaw is the best!!
For non Filipinos, the most popular foods are adobo, lumpia & pancit.
