Lasa Sandwiches And Pearls - Review - Lynnwood - Seattle - The Infatuation
"This all-day Lynnwood sandwich shop serves classics with a Filipino twist. Case in point: Philadelphia-style cheesesteaks with soy-marinated bistek, or subs containing decsontructed lumpia ingredients (crispy wrapper and all). But don’t miss Lasa’s finest contribution to society: their breakfast sandwich, loaded with soft scrambled egg, a longanisa patty, and creamy sauce accented by roasted jalapeño, all on sweet brioche. Pair it all with peppery beef lumpia or hand-cut fries for a lunch that'll sail you through to dinner. Food Rundown photo credit: Chona Kasinger Breakfast Longanisa This sweet-salty-spicy behemoth is a Lasa staple, whether it's 11am or 6:30pm. photo credit: Chona Kasinger Lumpia Sub It's a noble idea—lumpia dissected for parts to make a sandwich, featuring lots of pickled vegetables and a crackly wrapper insert. By all means go forth if you're a meatball sub person, but actual lumpia is the better deal. Also, if you have the mouth anatomy to take a clean bite of this thing, get the Guinness Book Of World Records on the phone. Lumpia Chopped into bite-size pieces, we wish Lasa's lumpia was available by the bucket. Fries You know how "hand-cut fries" is often code for "floppy soggy debacle?" Not here. These spuds are golden, snappy, and even hold up well during a car ride—provided you don't slam on the brakes and send them flying at the mercy of strong g-forces." - Aimee Rizzo
