Lugawan sa Balubaran, Brgy. Malinta, Valenzuela City

One Valenzuela would usually ask friends and new acquaintances in Valenzuela City on where to find good food. Following some of these hearsays, she learned that there is this small lugawan in Balubaran which serves tasty porridge. And she was also told that the lechon there was a must try.

Comfort food on a cold morning.

She paid Php78 pesos for two hot bowls of lugaw (the other bowl for a friend), one order of tokwa (tofu), one order of lechon (much like chopped fried pork), and a softdrink. One Valenzuela would say that the porridge has a clean, gingery taste. Pair it with the lechon’s crispy skin dunked in vinegar. Ay, sarap.

She heard (and eventually tasted through friends) that a little bakery somewhere here also has wonderful tiny versions of Spanish bread, cheese bread, etc. And now the saga continues. Eatsplore, Valenzuela!
