Always present on the menu at any party, Pancit Palabok is more of an appetizer than real food. But in fact, a bigon (starch noodles), topped with a thick orange seasoning, ground pork, annatto powder and shrimp. The dish is also sprinkled with small pieces of shrimp or chicharon, grated hard-boiled egg and onion. It is best to mix everything together with fish sauce and kalamansi to look like a sign of radioactive danger (because of its bright orange color).
