Can you get Filipino food where you live? For the longest time I wondered why there were so few Filipino restaurants, but I just recently made a discovery. They exist, and they are hiding in plain sight. It turns out that a lot of Filipino places style themselves as teriyaki/rice bowl/Chinese/generic “oriental” food places on the outside, with nondescript names like, “teribowl paradise” or “rice mart” or whatever. But if you look closely, you might see the letters “atbp” after the name. Atbp is the Tagalog equivalent of “etc.”, and means that, while you can get your generic teriyaki salmon over rice, it’s actually a Filipino restaurant, run by Filipinos, and selling Filipino food.

The dinuguan was very good, but it's just a little too much for me to eat as the main dish with how rich it is. Apparently it's traditionally made with all kinds of different offal, which would be interesting since the sauce is so dark it's hard to tell what you're even getting a bite of until it's in your mouth. Lumpia is pretty basic pork/cabbage/carrot/etc. with garlic/ginger/soy sauce. What makes them a little different is how thin and crispy the wrappers are.

I am glad that there are no Filipino restaurants where I live. You just know the neighbourhood has gone to shit when someone is trying to serve you pagpag or balut, even just a Jolibee franchise would be enough for me to get the fuck outta dodge. For anything like this to happen there would have to be such a monumental decline in standards and a severe demand for eating the lowest of the low filth, it'd be the culinary equivalent of being fine with hearing daily gunshots in your neighbourhood. Maybe I am a snob, but I simply just want to live with people who are better than that.

The irony in this post lmao. There are spring rolls sometimes called summer rolls depending on where you are wrapped.in rice paper, and there are the fried spring rolls wrapped.in pastry you find in most western Asian restaurants that lumpia are a direct ripoff of. Maybe you should get a passport yourself you wannabe loser. No shit there are different lumpia, just like there are different spring rolls. I said I prefer them because they are generally much smaller and have a higher ratio of filling to pastry.

Kek. Now if you said balut you would have had an argument. Sure there are some "original" dishes I'll concede to that, but they are so basic and foul that nobody ever mentions them seriously and not even most Filipinos will endorse them.

But nobody is making comparisons or value judgements, and acting like food is a zero sum game - as though there's so much food out there that you can't possibly eat some things unless you never give up a meal on certain other things - is just silly. Obviously Filipino food isn't world class, and often has some strong flavors many people might find off-putting, without having anywhere near the depth of flavors and variety of some of it's SE Asian neighbors. But like, why would you just decide to never try it? Most people here like variety and trying new things (lol).
