Razon's Halo-halo

Every time we go on shopping at Mall of Asia we never neglected to have a snack at Razon’s. We just love the taste of their food. We noticed such families and office workers flock to Razon’s for a filling snack of Pancit luglug and Halo-halo. Pancit is a simple noodle dish with thick, chunky orange sauce and Razon’s winning taste is the distinctly bold seafood flavor, livened by the crunchy chicharon, baby shrimps and egg slice toppings. Instead of a dozen halo-halo ingredients, Razon’s has only three: saging na saba (plantain), leche flan, (crème caramel) made with dayap (citrus) rind, and macapuno (sweetened coconut meat): simple and refreshing. Halo-halo is one of my favorite here.

Credit goes to Apung Sersia Juan who created these recipes in 1908 in her home in Pampanga. And as customers continue streaming into the stores from afternoon to late at night, it looks like this almost 90-year tradition is definitely here to stay.
