A dish that tells its story — Lumpia reviewed

You can taste history in Lumpia if you know what to look for. kamayan feasts eaten with hands from banana leaves are experiencing a cultural revival. The deeply umami character reflects those layers — calamansi lime doesn't appear by accident; it came from a specific tradition.

The a beach seafood restaurant setting made sense of it. You understand the food differently when the context is right. lambanog coconut spirit alongside is part of that story. Some food is just fuel. Lumpia, properly made, is something more. This version told the story well.
