Lomi King — Restaurant in Lipa

No longer the lomi we’ve experienced 5 years ago. We were looking forward to eat in Lomi King when we arrived in the Philippines. However, it was a disappointing experience.

The first few scoops were very enjoyable. You taste all of the toppings. The soup was very thick and rich in flavor. They fool you with the toppings, they only put ‘some’ toppings on top to make it look like it’s full. The bottom part if full of noodles no toppings whatsoever. The liver had a fishy taste, it was rotten. The servers seemed like they weren’t happy with their jobs. You say thank you and they walk away. Also, the server had some skin disease. Excuse me for sounding disrespectful but honestly if you were serving food that’s the last thing you’d want to see. There is no parking space. You will have to ask everyone inside who the owners of the car in front of the parking space.

The lomi si good also their kikiam but tapsilog serving is so little for 170 pesos and too oily. also the fish fillet dont taste good. It has after taste na malansa. Lechon kawali is ok. What's the good thing is the food attendant and server is very nice to us and...

I had the special Lomi just because it was recommended by the locals. To describe my experience eating it might hinder other people from trying it, so I suggest you don't take my word from it without trying it first. Your taste might be different from mine. Overall, the Lomi is like eating cup a noodles with Elmers glue-like sauce. It's really thick (due to starch) and slimy. A friend of mine with me described his bowl of Lomi as noodles in thick saliva which immediately made me stop eating it because it does resemble a thick plegm. I guess...
