Filipino-inspired sandwiches, lumpia, and halo halo desserts
"This Lynnwood sandwich shop focuses on classics with a Filipino twist. (We see you, Philadelphia-style cheesesteak with soy-marinated bistek.) But their all-day breakfast sandwich is the best of the lot. It has the necessary prerequisites—scrambled eggs with impeccable balance between set curds and runny yolk, sharp yellow cheddar, and sweet brioche. Then they go and add a tangy longanisa patty, snipped chives, and creamy jalapeño sauce. The result is a sweet-salty-spicy behemoth that’ll sail you through to dinner." - aimee rizzo, kayla sager riley
"Lasa is a Filipino sandwich shop that riffs on many classics—like cubanos and meatball hoagies—but their “Fili-Bistek” is just as exciting. The top sirloin has a soy-forward marinade that seeps into the French roll like fresh rain on planting soil, and then there are the usual suspects like onions, peppers, and a healthy blanket of provolone." - aimee rizzo, gabe guarente, kayla sager riley
"Here you'll find many Filipino flavors in the form of 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. As for Lasa’s shiny tapioca pearls, the flavors keep coming with halo halo, Purple Paradise (ube), and the Boracay Breeze, named after the famed beach in the Philippines." - terrence jeffrey santos, kayla sager riley, aimee rizzo
"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 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. photo credit: Chona Kasinger 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
"I love the gorgeous lechon kawali roll they serve at Lasa in Lynnwood." - Adam H. Callaghan
