Amber

Becca decided to get some Amber's Pancit Malabon for Kenny's birthday.  Since we discovered this store along Filmore St. near Cash and Carry Supermarket in the late nineties, their pancit has been a regular household favorite.  Nowadays business must be booming, and their branches have begun to mushroom all over town.  The pairing dish is almost always lumpia shanghai, which is bite size and crispy (I'm not too fond of the sweet-sour sauce though, but the kids just love it).   Dessert?  Necessarily pichi-pichi, which is a gel-like cassava treat sprinkled with lots of cheese gratings.  Becca ordered such a big bilao that we had enough to last till dinner.  Yum yum!
