Lumpia vs. Pansit

United States

Okay for all of those Filipinos out there or people who enjoy Filipino food. Which do you think is better the delicious lumpia or pansit? To be honest I rather have pansit because it fills me up and is easier to make than lumpia. Because with lumpia you have to individually roll then take the time to fry. (Not saying it ISN'T good because I love it with some sweet and sour sauce!(:..) So what do you think? && for those who don't know. Lumpia: Like a chinese eggroll but thinner 1/2 inch in diameter and can be filled with ground beef and vegetables. The way it is cooked is FRIED(: Pansit: This dish uses angel and has bits of meat in it plus vegetables. Usually sprinkle lemon juice for flavoring.

Hi! I want them both on my plate. I enjoy preparing lumpiang shanghai. As for pancit, I love them too but I seldom cook them. :D Nevertheless, I love them both!

That depends on what kind. I like both, equally, depending on what is on the table. If it's pancit palabok, that is my favorite but it can't have squid in it. As for lumpia, I like the bigger size, about 1 inch in diameter, with more vegies than meat. Even the fresh lumpia is good.

Thank you for the response(: YES! I love fresh lumpia but that's the downside you can't just have some later you would have to fry it to get best quality.

Well I like to eat both, quite hard to choose lol. Usually serve in birthdays or gatherings. I could cook pansit yet lumphis is quite hard to prepare. Nevetheless, I like eating the both of them.
