Aloha, Mark
You forgot tadun-tadun. Tried it once. Raw beef in pork blood. Halo halo is good. For those who don't know, its just fruit cocktail with crushed ice and cream, poured as a drink."Longaniza" is a sort of Philippines version of sausage. And yes, it's also onolicious too. If you're ever in Hawaii (Oahu) stop at Golden Coin for some cheap Filipino foods.
Aloha, Mark
PS...other favorites are the pancit, lumpia, kare-kare, pork gisuntis or pinakbit or lechon, chicharrons or chicken/pork adobo (all with rice of course). I usually stay away from the dinaguan and balut.
For dessert try the halo-halo.![]()
I'll eat sticky rice and nuoc man/nam pla/fish sauce for a meal anytime. Weeks of it would get old.So.....
I was thinking about a minimalist "iron ration".
OK....how about the VC diet? Rice and whatever edible food stuff(s) that is found along the Ho Chi Min trail.
My GF has told me that during hard times (i.e. when her father was a guest in a Communist Re-Education Camp, after the VN War) their family sometimes ate just rice and nuc mam sauce for a meal.
Aloha, Mark
Cheap.
Easy to prepare.
Lasts forever.
Lightweight.
Nutritious.
What do you have that meets those criteria?
The L&L here has a house omelet that is kalua pork, sausage and ham, fried up and then covered in gravy and put in an omelet covered in cheese and then on a big pile of rice. You can literally feel your life expectancy drop while you eat it but it is sooo good.Hamburger patty, on top of rice with brown gravy over all of it..... is called "LocoMoco". And, that's also ono stuff. But, I usually reserve that for lunch.

Erbswurst looks like instant split pea soup.
