Lutong Bahay at Pinggan

Pinggan is a turo-turo style eatery that has a homey atmosphere, tasty food, and very cheap price range. Their fresh lumpiang ubod is very good - so good that almost always, it's immediately gone as soon as they bring it out. If we want to "pig" out a little but don't want to spend too much, we go to Pinggan.

At lunch today, Andy and I visited it once again. For the two of us (with Julia), we ordered 1 fried tilapia (medium, priced at P30/ pc), long beans (sitaw) and squash in coconut milk (P30 per serving), igado (pork meat and liver cooked in soy sauce with green peas and raisins) (P50 per serving), fried lumpia (mongo sprouts wrapped in rice-wrapper and fried) (P20/pc), and 2 cups of rice. (Half orders for rice or viand are allowed!!!) They also serve free sopas (shell pasta in chicken/ pork soup stock) and free sago-gulaman for drinks. A lot of employees from (QC) City Hall and nearby NGOs frequent the place.
It's located at Mapagkawanggawa St., Teachers' Village, Quezon City, Tel. No. 922-2759

In my last visit at Pinggan (July 19, 2010) the prices increased by about P5.00 for vegetable dishes to P10.00 for the meat dishes. Still they offer free sopas (real soup with macaroni and chicken) but no more free gulaman drink. The cooking is still good. If you really want to eat lutong bahay which is not expensive, go to Pinggan.
