Daily Quickie: Lucky Me! Special Instant Pancit Palabok

Daily Quickie is a short tag on the title which I use for blog entries about food I'm snacking at home, work or anywhere.

Earlier this month, I received a special bilao from Lucky Me!. Our helper thought that it's palabok, and she was actually right. What I got was a bilao of Lucky Me! Special Instant Pancit Palabok which is one of the newest dry noodle products from Monde Nissin.
Lucky Me Special Pancit Palabok

Since my sister and I are fans of both Lucky Me! and palabok, we didn't waste a second and went straight to the kitchen to cook a few packs of the Instant Pancit Palabok. Each packet has a block of dehydrated rice noodles, a sachet of palabok sauce, and a pack of dried toppings. Preparation is super easy too as you only need to follow a few steps.

Lucky Me! Special Instant Pancit Palabok Cooking Instructions
  1. Add boiling water to the dehydrated noodles, and cover for 4 minutes.
  2. Carefully drain the water from the noodles.
  3. Mix the noodles with the palabok sauce, and add the toppings.
  4. You can also add optional ingredients like slices of boiled egg.

For about P12 to P14 a pack, Lucky Me! Special Instant Pancit Palabok is actually quite good for a light afternoon snack. The sauce was quite savory and the toppings added saltiness and texture to the noodles. However, I think the palabok sauce included in a pack of the Instant Pancit Palabok is bitin. Sure, it can coat the rice noodles nicely, but it isn't as flavorful as I would've wanted. I actually ended up using 2 sachets of the palabok sauce to make my Lucky Me! Special Instant Pancit Palabok tastier.

Have you tried the new Lucky Me! Special Instant Pancit Palabok already? As for me, I think I'll give the new Curly Spaghetti Korean Style Spicy BibimMyun a taste too!

    Awww too bad it's been years since I started avoiding instant anything for health purposes. But this sure made me drool. :)

    The first instant pancit palabok I saw in the grocery was from Quickchow, I think. I'd love to try Lucky Me!'s version sometime. :)

    Haven't seen this yet at the grocery but I'll keep in mind to buy it once it's available. I'm a palabok lover and so far Lucky Me has been very consistent with their products in terms of taste. :)

    I've tried this since I was craving for some palabok a couple of weeks ago. It's not legitimately the same as the home cooked palabok however, it does satisfy ones craving. In short, masarap siya :D

      I don't think anything can beat the real palabok. Sahog pa lang mahirap nang pantayan.. But yes, instant palabok is good for quick fix :D Mura pa!

    Tried this Lucky Me! Instant Palabok before. It was actually good and inexpensive, but I have to agree with you that the sauce is not quite enough to make it tastier. I hope they come up with a "bigger" portion. :D

    The Lucky Me! Pancit canton is always a favorite in the family so I'm really excited to try the new Lucky Me! Instant Palabok. I agree with you about the sauce. I always like my palabok with a lot of sauce, hope they would add more sauce to the pack.

    I actually had the opportunity to taste this through a free taste in a grocery. At first, I thought it wouldn't be really good because I'm not really a fan of Palabok. But Lucky Me! proved me wrong because it really tastes well! Actually, the taste of it is similar to the Palabok of Jollibee (which I really like). :) So, 2 thumbs up for this instant Palabok. Not only good for merienda but also for any given time of the day. ;)

    I haven't tried these yet but I'd like to try to. I don't eat so much of the instant stuff unless there's really nothing to eat here at home. But it's kind of expensive--I mean it's still cheap but expensive compared to its counterparts but we'll see if the flavor is worth it. I mean, switching to this from pancit canton.

    I got a chance to taste this when Ayala Malls Cinemas gave them for free when you watch a movie. It was nice and I agree with you on the palabok sauce - BITIN! I hope Lucky Me recognizes this and will make some adjustments.
