The Philippines Lumpia Shanghai 💚with the sweet and sour Sauce- A Gastronomic Delight
Yesterday's afternoon THD Cocktail Hour featuring Filipino appetizers was a gastronomic success. San Miguel beer, lumpia Shanghai and pot stickers were served along with the standard, cheese, fruit and vegetable platter. The Lumpia ( Philippines spring rolls) were purchased from Seafood City in Concord according to Agustin. With the sweet and sour sauce, it was a gastronomic delight. I HAD also the Philippines San Miguel beer ordered for the occasion. I enjoyed the beer very much. I had seconds of the appetizers ( Lumpia and pot sticker only) and I lost my appetite for the Dinner that follows. I took pictures during the cocktail hour and happy to share it with you.

The Cocktail Hour also celebrated not only the Filipino American History Month, but Residents born in October. The birthday celebrants were given special birthday cup cake to honor their birthday. Among the Birthday Celebrants present were Marsha Kefer and Anne Long. Patty Healy did not attend.
Thank You, THD for this Special Cocktail Hour featuring lumpia Shanghai or Filipino spring rolls. It was a well-attended event. The music was great, but not Philippine music as advertised.
💚 Lumpiang Shanghai (also known as Filipino spring rolls, or simply lumpia or lumpiya) is a Filipino deep-fried appetizer consisting of a mixture of giniling (ground pork) with vegetables like carrots, chopped scallions or red onions and garlic, wrapped in a thin egg crêpe. Lumpiang Shanghai is regarded as the most basic type of lumpia in Filipino cuisine, and it is usually smaller and thinner than other lumpia variants.
