P is for Pancit!

Pancit or "Pansit" is stir-fried noodle dish, common in the Philippines, though of Chinese origin. This food is second in popularity to rice in the country. It's similar to yakisoba and yakiudon, Japanese-style stir-fried noodles.The word pancit is derived from the Hokkien (Min Nan) word pian i sit, which literally means something conveniently cooked fast. (wikipedia.com)

For today's Food Tripping Thursdays, I introduce you one of the most popular Filipino dishes ever. If it's a Filipino party, then it's totally incomplete without some type of variation of pancit! I'm showing you different types that I have had here and back in the Philippines. It may seem that they all look the same, but they don't taste the same, I promise! Hit the labels if you're interested in knowing recipes of the dishes.

1. Pancit Palabok


2. Pancit Bihon


3. Pancit Canton


4. Pancit Lomi
If you know some other versions of Pancit, feel free to comment below.

Comment of the Day: --Sanam--
Aww,love the bear t-shirt :D and never tried sushi before,is it good?.Ox

Thanks, dear! You've never tried it? Well, I personally love it enough that I can eat it forever (yes, I'm serious, hahaha!). But it does take an acquired taste. Some people find the idea of eating something raw ickky, or some feel like they don't get full with eating bite size things like sushi.

P.S. I apologize for the slow down on outfit photos.. I've just been so lazy lately to dress up. A lot of times I just want to stay in the bath tub for hours. Either that or be in a beach somewhere getting a decent tan!

P.P.S. Jasmine added one of my outfits in her recent EIU article in chictopia. She featured chictopians wearing chic rewards they got from the site. I think it's a wonderful idea! Looking forward to more posts with this theme, dear!

    Hey, cool feature on Chictopia! I am jealous that you can probably retrieve your chic points easily.

    Palabok is my favorite :)
