Discover our famous Lumpia Shanghai, the Filipino spring roll that's become a party favorite and beloved appetizer. These delicate, thin-wrapped rolls are filled with a savory mixture of seasoned ground pork and finely chopped vegetables, each one carefully hand-rolled to ensure the perfect crispy-to-filling ratio. Fried to a beautiful golden brown, these lumpia feature an ultra-thin, shatteringly crisp wrapper that gives way to a hot, juicy, and flavorful pork and vegetable filling. Served piping hot with our house-made sweet and sour dipping sauce that perfectly complements the savory filling, these addictive rolls are impossible to resist. Whether you're hosting a party or just looking for the perfect appetizer, our Lumpia Shanghai at ChowKeni Restaurant and Catering Services will not disappoint.
Lumpia Shanghai is one of the most popular and recognizable Filipino dishes, and at ChowKeni, we've perfected the art of making these delicious spring rolls. Our Lumpia Shanghai starts with premium ground pork that we season with a carefully balanced blend of Filipino spices, soy sauce, and aromatics. This is mixed with finely diced carrots, onions, and other vegetables to create a filling that's both flavorful and has great texture. What makes our lumpia special is the wrapper – we use the thinnest spring roll wrappers available, which creates that signature ultra-crispy texture when fried.
Each Lumpia Shanghai is hand-rolled with care, ensuring the perfect amount of filling in each piece. The tightly wrapped rolls are then fried in hot oil until they turn a beautiful golden brown color and achieve that irresistible crispy texture. The key is maintaining the right oil temperature so the wrapper crisps up perfectly while the filling cooks through, staying juicy and flavorful. We serve them fresh from the fryer with our house-made sweet and sour sauce, which adds a tangy sweetness that cuts through the richness of the fried pork. These are a must-have at Filipino parties and celebrations, but you don't need a special occasion to enjoy them!
Lumpia Shanghai pairs wonderfully with our other Filipino dishes like Pancit or Adobo for a complete Filipino feast. They're also perfect as a standalone appetizer or party snack. Try them with our sweet and sour sauce, or for a more traditional pairing, dip them in banana ketchup or spiced vinegar. Order a larger portion for your next gathering – they'll disappear quickly!
