Aside from Bihon, lomi, mami, miki and palabok is just a handful of Chinese noodle recipe we Filipino truly like. Aside from noodles, there are other original Chinese recipes that become famous to average Filipino. Asado is one of the most popular for having a combination of sweetness and saltiness.
