Given its well-known specialties that include hand-made Beef wonton noodles, dim sum, and congee, Ling Nam is a brand that is well-known among people in the Philippines who love Chinese cuisine. The following is a list of some of the most popular foods that can be found on the renowned Ling Nam menu.

Ling Nam Best Sellers

Below are some of the crowd-favorites on Ling Nam’s menu.

Beef, Wanton, and Asado Noodles

The braised beef and noodles are both generously portioned, with the former almost covering the whole of the bowl’s base. Fewer pieces of asado or Chinese barbecued pork and fewer wonton dumplings are included. Ling Nam’s famed firm, chewy noodles, along with a larger-than-average serving size for noodle shops, will always leave me impressed.

Both the beef and the pork were tender, but the meat was the better value. The crisp kick and zip of some tabletop hot sauce complement the chewy noodles in this soup.

Spinach Garlic

This one is quite delicious but can be quite misleading — Ling Nam’s Spinach Garlic is made with kangkong, not spinach leaves. Although they can be let off the hook on the technicality that kangkong is indeed called ‘water spinach’ in English.

It’s still similar in taste and texture, so it won’t be too big of a difference. While garlicky and crisp-watery, it might not match your noodle orders best. The Spinach Garlic shines better alongside drier dishes and steamy rice.

Chami

In essence, chami is just thick pancit canton. The toppings, which were liberally spread among the noodles and sauce, were delicious and generous. Those who like different textures will be pleased by the abundance of juicy meat, tasty fish, and fresh produce. The dish has a fairly straightforward flavor, but the thick, chewy noodles make it a hit with diners of all palates. I shared this with my partner, which is a good thing since it was heavier a meal than I thought.

Seafood Roll

Although Ling Nam’s Seafood Roll is often prepared fresh to order, it may take a little longer than expected to get to your table. This meal, however, is definitely worth the wait.

White fish filets (perhaps cream dory), kani, shrimp, and a broccoli floret are artfully rolled up in a Chinese cabbage leaf to make the delicious seafood roll. This flavorful package is served over a hearty plate of bird’s nest soup called nido soup. If you want to appreciate all the different textures and tastes of a Seafood Roll, it’s better to consume it in one mouthful.

Eggplant Ala King

When you first look at it, you may think it’s simply a standard eggplant meal, but when you take a mouthful, you’ll realize that it has a shrimp ball inside and is tempered with sautéed garlic and red chilies, and you’ll completely forget that you’re eating an eggplant. Mayonnaise, which is served with the meal, contributes significantly to the dish’s overall deliciousness.

Ling Nam favorites can be sent to your doorstep via third-party delivery apps, like foodpanda and GrabFood.

About Ling Nam in the Philippines

Ling Nam Restaurant 2
Ling Nam Restaurant

After World War II, Ling Nam began operation in the 1950s, providing Filipinos with beef wanton noodles and siopao. Tomas Fung, the man behind Ling Nam, built up one of the first noodle businesses in Manila to introduce Filipinos to the deliciousness of Chinese cuisine. In 1950, he established the original Ling Nam Noodle Restaurant on Zacateros St. in Sta. Cruz. He relocated the shop to its current location at 616 T. Alonzo St. in 1965, and to this day, it still operates successfully. Their flagship restaurant is in Binondo, but they now have many nationwide locations where you can also have their mouthwatering fare.
