Pancit Palabok at Little Quiapo
Little Quiapo’s Pancit Palabok

A family friend invited us yesterday to try Little Quiapo’s Pancit Palabok.

For the uninformed, palabok is basically noodles “smothered with a thick, golden shrimp sauce or other flavored sauce, and topped with: Shrimp, (the size and shell-on or shell-off depending on preference), crushed or ground pork rind (chicharron) for toppings, hard-boiled egg (sliced into disc or quartered lengthwise or chopped), tinapa flakes (smoked fish), freshly minced green onion.”

Little Quiapo’s serving is huge, and it’s good for two people. Amazingly, I finished mine without any help. If you want to try their palabok, make sure to bring some friends, as they are running a promotion: if you buy 3 palabok, you get the fourth one free.

Sounds like a good deal, right?

Casa Dante - Meatballs, bread, salad

Laryssa, a 23-year old blogger, stopped by Casa Dante yesterday and ordered meatballs and salad to go. She said the place was totally different from the outside — “the interior of the restaurant is rather comforting and warm, despite the fact that the furnishings are so gilded and spotless” to quote her.

She ordered Sicilian meatball appetizer (Italian sausage meatballs with pine nuts and raisins in a light marinara sauce, $9) and Insalata con Arugula(arugula with freshly shaved fennel and oranges lightly tossed with extra virgin olive oil and finished with thin slices of parmigiano reggiano, $10). Casa Dante threw in a warm Italian bread to her take-out bag.

Overall, she wrote that she enjoyed the food even though it was quite expensive, and she would definitely go back to try their pasta. Read her full review of the meatballs, which she described as marvelous. (Trackback to her post)
