Sometimes I just crave some of my favorite filipino dish. And today I really, really wanted to eat pancit bihon (rice noodle). So, when I got home today I immediately cook pancit bihon.
When I was in the Philippines I can eat this everyday and I don't get bored with it. But here in the states I don't know for some reason maybe because there are so many foods available here than in the Philippines so that's why I get bored eating this everyday now.. but like I said I really crave this food sometimes..
So, I called this "Spicy Bihon" because I add a spicy hotdog in it that makes the dish spicy, actually the pancit doesn't taste spicy at all, it just the hot dog. Some people add shrimps, bola-bola, fish balls etc....
