I sometimes still wonder how I managed to wake up so early during my pre-college years. For me, early is before 10 am and I could say the same for the rest of the family. There are only a few instances that could get us up at 5:30 in the morning and one of those is
Ling Nam Wanton Parlor & Noodle Factory.
This humble place along T. Alonzo Sta. Cruz has been my mom's favorite breakfast place since she was young. And, it's still her favorite place up until now.
As soon as you step in, you can already sniff the pleasant scent of their Lugao.
The place is small but it has a second floor. Upon, taking our order, we were given our complimentary hot tea.
Food
Lugao (Morning Only: 5:30 am to 8 am)
 |
| Halo-Halo Lugao (145 php) |
The Lugao are only available from 5:30 am to 8 am so be sure to come early for it. They may even ran out of it before 8 am. My brother's choice is the bountiful Halo-Halo Lugao. It has everything: bola-bola, liver, kidney, chicken and fish fillet.
 |
| Liver & Kidney Lugao (155 php) |
My favorite is the Liver & Kidney Lugao. This is not for everyone though, it has a hint of the fuzzy organ taste that some people dislike.
 |
| Chicken Lugao (155 php) |
The Chicken Lugao is a popular choice because chicken broth is always appealing.
 |
| Chicken Lugao (155 php) |
The broth is mild so mixing the egg before it's completely cooked together with the lugao is vital for me.
 |
| Fish with Bola (170 php) |
My mom loves the Fish with Bola which is another great choice.
Dimsum
 |
| Pork Siomai (70 php) |
We always order their Pork Siomai which is more chunky and porky than other commercialized ones.
Tsinoy Foodies Verdict
Ling Nam Wanton Parlor & Noodle Factory will always be our favorite lugao or congee place. I don't even like congee but this can get me off my comfty bed in a flash. We also buy their packed noodles and use it for cooking at home.
