or even fried spam, the only thing extra we do in malaysia for that dish is pickled onions/cucumbers :drool:
but imho, alot of filipino dishes are a mish mash of everything, still good but just too much stuff sometimes.

TORTANG TALONG..
Ingredients :
· 2 to 4 talong (eggplants), average size
· 2 to 3 eggs, beaten
· salt and pepper, to taste
· oil, for frying
(Cooking Conversion Chart)
Cooking Procedures :
1. Broil eggplants until tender (the skins are charred and blister appears).
2. Once cool, peel off the skins of the eggplant and retain the crown and the stem. Gently flatten its meat by using the back of a fork. Set aside.
3. In a bowl, beat the eggs and season with salt and pepper.
4. In a skillet, heat oil over medium heat. Dip each eggplant, one at a time into the egg mixture. Gently bring the bowl near the skillet and tip, lowering the eggplant onto the heated oil.
5. Fry until golden brown on one side, then turn and brown the other. Drain on paper towels. Keep warm and serve.

And for breakfast, it's all about garlic fried rice, scrambled eggs, bacon and Longanisa....

It's actually Lolit's and that place is a reason why bad impressions last forever. The food is okay but here's a tip for restaurants: when customers place orders in advance, get it right the first time. We ordered pancit and they forgot to put the toppings in; we thought it was already mixed in but when we got home, we searched high and low and it was just noodles and cabbage.
Obviously, my mom was pissed and she made me drive back for the toppings. The drive back and forth from Taradale to their place was not worth what we ate.
Mistakes happen and we're only human but there's always another place to go to and for me, Lolit's is not of them.

I wouldn't recommend any Filipino restaurants in Calgary. My parents & family run Filipino restaurants in Winnipeg (Casa Bueno, Casa Delano, Aristocrat, Kalan) so I know what's good & fresh and what's not.
If you're curious as to what good Filipino food tastes like, your best bet is to ask your Filipino friend (if any) if you can come over when they have a big party going on.
I also make Filipino food for my friends every 2 weeks, LOL.

BTW, I just made this. Pancit Palabok with shrimp, imitation crab meat, eggs, pork rinds, lemon juice, garlic, and green onions.

+1, most of the dishes seem like a not as good variant of some other asian dish. I don't mind them, but never crave them.

It really depends if the family has a good cooking tradition. There are different variants and ways in cooking a filipino dish and its dependent where the family was located in the Philippines or if they are really good cooks.

Safe dishes for beef are:
- Bistek (fried beef with soy sauce marinade)
- Mechado/Menudo (beef stew with a tomato base with veggies; menudo is the pork equivalent)
- Nilaga (Beef stew with a clear beef broth base and veggies)
- Kare Kare (oxtail with a peanut butter stew base)
Chicken dish is chicken pork adobo (stew with soy sauce/vinegar base)
Pork dish is lechon (roast pig)
Garlic rice is bomb

if you are going for filipino style spaghetti, might as well go to Jollibee
never been to Lola's, curious to try it now.
my recommendation would be to try sisig, bicol express and pork adobo.
kare-kare or caldareta for beef.
pinakbet, chopsuey or laing if you want a traditional filipino vegetable dish
side note but our favorite filipino restaurant is Paolo's.
their chopsuey has crispy pork and their kare-kare with crispy pata is awesome and can feed 6-8 people easily.
they can also make dinuguan with crispy pork.
