When it comes to local cuisine, there is always something for everyone
On-the-go delights
Nothing is more comforting to a Filipino palate than lutong bahay. An assortment of savory variants carefully prepared by loving parents and grandparents can definitely give a sense of home with every flavorful bite. While having those every day on the table is a dream, prepping is quite time-consuming, which doesn’t much fit the on-the-go lifestyle of many urban Filipinos. Luckily, with 7-Eleven’s HottaUlam!, they can now have it fast and easy. Now available in its 2,000 stores, HottaUlam! offers Rico’s Lechon Binagoongan, Sisig, and Pork Laing, as well as two sticks of Pork BBQ, Chicken BBQ, Fried Bangus, Pinakbet, and Ginataang Langka at P55 to P79 per pack. Ready-to-heat lutong bahay viands such as Pork Steak, Chicken Curry, and Beef Caldereta are priced at P159 each and are good for two to three pax. Baliwag Liempo (P165) or Lechon Manok (P115) are also available for larger servings for families and barkada.
