Lomi is a traditional Filipino dish that typically consists of thick egg noodles served in a savory, often rich broth, usually with a variety of ingredients such as chicken, pork, seafood, and vegetables. It is a popular comfort food in the Philippines, often enjoyed during cold weather or after long hours of work. The dish is known for its hearty, flavorful broth, which is thickened using cornstarch or flour, creating a creamy texture.
Lomi is often garnished with fried garlic, hard-boiled eggs, chicharrĂ³n (crispy pork skin), and green onions. It is usually served with a side of calamansi (Filipino lime) and soy sauce for added flavor. Though its exact origins are debated, Lomi has become a beloved dish in Filipino cuisine, with regional variations across the country. It is commonly found in eateries known as "lomi houses" or at roadside food stalls.
