The first one was the classic and original, it has a slimy texture that's why toyo and calamansi goes well with the dish. the condiments also affects the consistency of the lomi since here in Lipa they mostly use cassava starch instead of flour or corn starch as thickening agents. Here in Lipa, every area has their taste of lomi. The last one you tried (Liam's) I can say develop the taste and consistency of the broth for food vloggers and others who tries lomi for the first time in lipa. Also a must try here in Lipa that you really missed is the bibingka of the D Lovers line just near the tustadong guisado you've tried.

You came to the right places for lomi. Lipa Panciteria is where the lomi originated so basically you experienced eating the most authentic lomi. And for Liam's it is also my best choice of lomi anywhere in Batangas, it's just different the way you have eaten it. There is a certain way that Batanguenos eat lomi and we know how to enjoy it. You really need to put the toyomansi and dip in while the lomi is hot, in that way you can enjoy eating lomi. I can recommend that next time you visit Batangas, try to visit Batangas City there are a lot of good places for lomi and pansit guisado. There is this one place in Bryg. Sta. RIta Karsada, Batangas City who have one of the best pansit guisado in Batangas. It is called "Kampo Gwapo"'. You won't be disappointed.

Arthur's Bbq, Hapag Filipino, Aling Nene's Mami and Siopao, Tessie's Goto and Bulalo, Spice Bar and Bistro, Fat Grill, Conrado's all day breakfast, Dulcissima Bakeshop, Ramen Co and more...

So much missed potential from Lipa, but hope you enjoyed your stay here Jessica! <3

Being a Batangueño myself, I noticed a few things specially the way the Lomi was eaten. I kinda cringe a bit cause you can't really enjoy and max out the whole experience without eating Batangas Lomi the way it should be eaten ( together with toyomansi, sili, sibuyas and garlic) .

Bulalo, calderetang batangas, pupor, the kakanin's, and many more. I wish Jessica tried these as well .

I expected for her to have atleast one Paborito but can't blame her. Everybody has their own preference when it comes to food.

Hope she comes back and explore Batangas a bit more, cause the town's got so much more to offer. 😊

In Batangas. The known foods are Bulalo. Tawilis. Tulingan. Lomi. Also try the ensaymada of Panaderia Pantoja. But still bulalo is a delicious dish. Try it at Rose and Grace. Or in Mahogany Market in Tagaytay which is part of Cavite. If you also want to explore more of Batangas and eat in different places. Try to contact the famous Batangueña vlogger Queenee Mercado. You will not only visit I guess known places in Batangas. Eat authentic Batangueño food. But also learn how to speak in their Batangueño/Batangueña accent. Kapeng Barako is the best in Batangas. Also try the Bagoong Balayan and tulingan. ❤

taga-lipa po ako and yes, pumunta po kayo sa right places to eat lomi!! :))) don’t worry jessica haha I also view lomi as what you verdict it to be kasi nothing special talaga ang lomi pero we like it more with the sawsawan combination of toyo+calamansi+sibuyas+sili. siguro, that is what made it special to us, lipeños. we never eat lomi plain hehe. personally tho, mas like ko ang chami than lomi kasi mas may flavor and gulay skl haha. anw, thank you for visiting our municipality 🫶

Gotta love the jelly-ish slimy texture of Batangas Lomi. Unbeatable texture and almost sinful with the mouthfeel. We replicate that at home using tapioca/cassava or potato starch as cornstarch does not make it slippy (almost chewy if that is possible) slimy.

Also handmade miki noodles is quite interesting to make; I think Batangas nailed it, but there are other good places outside that can do it well too. It's an alkalised process noodle, so it's kinda closer to ramen noodles than say, pancit canton noodles. It has this sort of 'lihiya'/lye taste that is signature for alkaline noodles and it has a distinct chew, but some tend to overdo it that the noodles kinda taste 'soapy' due to probably excess alkali or insufficient rinsing of the noodles. XD

Also pork brain might be jarring at first glance, but it is really unctuous and tastes indulgent you might feel the high blood pressure from miles away hahaha. I quite like it in dinakdakan, an a dish from north of the Philippines; best way I could describe it is it's as if sisig and kilawin had a lovechild. Pork mask, ears, jowls and snout grilled and coarsely chopped, then seasoned with cane vinegar, red onions/shallots, garlic, ginger, peppercorns and bay, and sometimes tossed with mayonnaise nowadays (as a stand-in for pork brain which is traditional).

Caramel (kinda like a really dark soy sauce, but it's mostly caramelised sugars than soy) has that distinct deep, almost close to burnt flavour that is used in some Chinese cookery. Lee Kum Kee has that cooking caramel that could be similar to the one Tustado ni Ka Rico uses.

Would have recommended Goto Batangas (tripe/intestines in a soup - very sinful haha, but great as a pre- or post-hangover dish lol).

Kinda missing the days when the family goes to Batangas for a bit of vacation. XD Great video btw. Keep it up! <3

Authentic Batangas dishes are really plain and simple such as Sinaing na tulingan or other native fishes, Lomi and Goto. Even their vegetables are cooked that way such as bulanglang, kibal, etc. They don't have the culinary flare of the other provinces such as Pampanga and Iloilo. But they love it that way - plain and simple, not too much fuss, which is a reflection of the people, not too flashy and always direct to the point. Most of the known food places are not serving original Batangas cuisine and came from Manila and other provinces, even foreign dishes such as Chinese, Japanese, Korean and western dishes are the go to places nowadays.

The transitions are now way better compares to before wherein after the interviews it go straight to the food which made more sense compare to all interviews, then food. This called, “Adjustment” in business. I like that you corporate it in your vlogs. Good job to the editor and the whole team! 👏

[lumiereco]

Lipa has grown exponentially throughout the years. Food has become more and more diverse with introduction to new cultures. Japanese, Indian, Korean, American, you name it. I would recommend bread/pastries and coffee here. Tons of places as such has been popping all over the place. There used to be a night market in palengke before where you can binge eat tho. Thelomi, chami, etc. is never eaten as is. The sauce is not a side but part of the dish. Trust me, there are MANY good places in lipa for food. Maybe you can collab with the legend kuya Jayzar Recinto next time as you go back to Lipa.

[angelotimonera]

Hi Jessica, if you want different meal in Batangas that's saturated with lomi, try their "kapeng barako" with adobo sa dilaw. Yes, yellow adobo. There are many more like the gotong Batangas, sinaing na Tulingan (steamed tuna fish) and there's this exotic dish which is called "Taghilaw" but I know you don't go with animal innards so you may skip this but worth a try. Salamat!

[aejoymamotosfermin]

Naalala ko tuloy ung niluto mong lomi na Tiffany brand ung noodles. Heheheh.
Bicol foods Naman next, Jess😊

[lunebb]

the employees in the second place 😭😭😭 I’m crying theyre so funny

[hamsterpoppy]

You can also try Gotong Batangas and kapeng Barako next time. 😊

[VinJay-cqjb]

Asking the establishment na "Pweding mag vlog" Wooahh HIGH RESPECT TO JESSICA AND THE CREW❤

[juliusalvinbalba]

My dear Jessica - From Batangas here, i wish they taught you that Batangueno's cannot eat their lomi without these toyomansi combo/

Most of the lomis are bland/sakto lang sa taste kaya nandun yung mga toyomansi combo na yun.

I believe when it comes to lomi or any of those noodle dishes you ate, you have the full control kung gaano mo kagusto yung saltiness ng overall dish.

I wish they also recommended Kulawo / Gotong Batangas.

And if ever Lomi lang din naman pag uusapan, i'd recommend the Corcolon Lomi - loaded pero hindi nakakaumay. The gimmicks of these newly built Lomi Houses is that they offer these crazy loaded lomi with lots of toppings pero hindi naman masarap overall. But it's different with Corcolon Lomi - gracious sila sa servings at sulit na sulit.

Since you're in LIPA, sana nakapunta ka na rin sa Padre Garcia which is the Cattle Capital of the Philippines . Try the papaitan.

Or if you have time go to Talisay Batangas where i live. I suggest going to Milan's and try the Sinigang na Maliputo and Crispy Tawilis (if it's in season)

Batangas is not just about lomi and kapeng barako. Di lang kayo nakaswerte sa mga nainterview kasi yun at yung lang nairecommend nila.

[anthonyvalencia]

We want to see Lia without H in paborito

[jeymsy]

I'm binge watching your vlogs!!! My friend recommends your channel and now it's my go–to vlog when I'm about to eat something (I love watching vlogs while eating haha)

Kudos to the whole team! Stay safe!! 🥰

Hi Jessica, I really like your paborito series. I just wish you improve on approaching people and phrasing your questions better so you can get better answers from people. More paborito episodes to come!
