The Modern Mom

Hello foodies! It's been a long time since my last entry. I've been quite busy with the new work and projects so I have not been able to update my blog. Anyway, last January, I had a sudden midnight craving for "lugaw" or rice porridge. My friend, Nina, raved about a restaurant in Timog which specializes in this kind of food; so I dragged my brother, Jantzen, for a spur-of-the-moment midnight foodtrip! Lugawan Republic The ambiance of the place is very simple and very "masa". It's quite clean and the menus are straight forward. They're usually open until around 4:00AM. My staple drink, Coke Light. Jantzen ordered Fresh Lumpia, which is just like Singapore's Popiah. Fresh vegetables mixed with peanut sauce and wrapped in Spring Rolls Shells. I'm not really a big fan of this but I guess, it was okay. Jantzen, posing with his order. Pilugaw. This was a definite winner! It's like a mixture of "Palabok" and "Lugaw". Great w
