Lomi - Where Served

Where Served

Lomi haus or lomian, panciteria, eatery, carinderia, restaurant or their combination (e.g. lomi haus and eatery) are the most common terms used in Batangas to refer to a food establishment where lomi is served or eaten.

A lomi haus specializes in lomi and other pancit dishes made of fresh egg noodles called mike. It may also serve other pancit dishes, such as pancit guisado, bihon, mike-bihon, chami, pancit canton, sotanghon and others if available.

A panciteria has a more extensive menu of pancit dishes. It serves lomi and other pancit dishes such as pancit guisado, bihon, mike-bihon, chami, pancit canton, sotanghon and others. Rice meals, viands and other made-to-order dishes may also be served here if available.

An eatery or carinderia or restaurant principally serves rice meals, viands and other made-to-order dishes that may or may not include lomi. In eastern Batangas, lomi will always be included in the menu, however.

Other names used, though infrequently, for food establishments where lomi may be served are luncheonette and fast food center.
