Hello lovely Hivers and hello Foodies Bee Hive Community. It's a gloomy day today here in our place and it's really good to eat something with soup 🌸
For today's blog I will share to you one of my comfort food.
Theres a food here in the Philippines that I liked, I called it one of my comfort food because I am a fan of fresh crunchy veggies with mix of flavors that's melts on my mouth. I have this kind of taste bud since then. I really love a different combinations of taste like sweet , sour , spicy and salty in one dish. I also love different texture of the ingredients in one.
When I am still working in Manila I always choose to eat fresh lumpia everytime I am stress. I have a favorite fresh lumpia stall which is located at Starmall Alabang named Katie's fresh lumpia. I always go there after my shift and eating alone. I enjoyed eating alone sometimes with my favorite food 😊 Sometimes I am eating in the food court and sometimes I just take out the fresh lumpia and ate it in my room.

Fresh lumpia is a Filipino dish that is made by mixed vegetables like carrots , chayote, sweet potato, potato and Mexican turnips , a soft egg wrapper and a garlic peanut sauce. You can also add some shredded chicken and other meat depends on your like but as for me I preffered the pure mixed vegetables.
I also have a favorite store aside from Katie's . It is located in our provice and the Fresh Lumpia there is so delicious and affordable.
These photos where taken while we visited Chef's G Kitchen in our province. They offered combo meal. When you buy a Fresh Lumpia and a Halo Halo ( Shaved Ice Parfait ) it only costs 105 pesos and if you buy a single order of fresh lumpia , you will pay 70PHP. Its so affordable right? All there food were delicious but Fresh Lumpia is the best for me.
Why I love Fresh Lumpia?
I love vegetables. I love the crunchiness of the vegetables while I am eating Fresh Lumpia. I am also a fan of peanut sauce that's why I am so inlove with that dish. The crunchiness of vegetables and a soft egg wrapper and a touch of peanut and garlic sauce is actually a perfect combination for me. Every time I ordered Fresh Lumpia I always bought an extra sauce.
Yesterday I ordered fresh lumpia with one of the online sellers on Facebook. Two fresh lumpia cost 60 pesos which is really affordable. I am satisfied with the sauce because it's plenty and I really enjoyed eating yesterday. The wrapper is not so good as it's not made of egg. I knew it because the color of the wrapper is white but despite of that I enjoyed it.
I always preffered to eat this kind of food instead of eating pizza or burgers as snacks.
That's all for today.
