Pancit Miki. Abramazing Goodness in a Bowl

 

Updated for 2024

​What is Pancit Miki

After the long overnight bus or van ride to Abra the first thing you need is a good Abrenian breakfast. Pancit Miki is the Abrenians breakfast of choice and is unique to the province. Unlike the dry pancit found in most places in the Philippines, the Abra version is a soup based one.

Homemade noodles, called “linaddit”, are boiled in a pork broth, and served with a hard boiled egg (I usually have two ), topped with chicharon, bits of chopped pork and garnished with fresh green spring onion. Add some chilli paste and/or vinegar and you have a nourishing and filling breakfast, that will keep you going until lunchtime.

The red/orange colour of Pancit Miki comes from Annato seeds, also known as Asuete which is used as a natural food colouring in many parts of the world. Each panciteria makes its own noodles. There are wide flat ones, thick round ones, and narrow flat ones.

Each panciteria also has its own recipe, so no two Pancit Mikis will ever taste or look the same. Panciterias open early every morning and begin to serve Pancit Miki usually between 05.00 and 05.30.

The traditional ones still use a wood burner to cook the broth. Piles of chopped wood can be seen outside, and an open fire on the inside. These establishments are very popular and one of them has a “when its gone its gone” policy, which means they often close shop at around 11.00.

So where are these Panciterias?

Let’s go find out…………………… Listed in no particular order are some of the ones that I have personally eaten in and recommend. 

They are from all over Abra. From Danglas to Bucay and Lagangilang to Dolores and San Juan.

Anyone can cook a Miki but not everyone can cook a good one !!!!!

Let me know in the comments below which Pancit Miki you have tried  and which was your favourite ?

Acostas Panciteria is one of the most popular in town sometimes with what seems like a long queue. Don’t be put off though, take your bowl and cutlery and join the multitudes who come here for one of the best Pancit Miki that Bangued has to offer. A wood burning open fire cooker adds to the atmosphere. For P51 you can have two hard boiled eggs, crispy chicharon, unli spring onions and your bowl topped up with homemade noodles and soup. Add some chilli paste or vinegar to suit your taste.

MikeeGo Pancitan can be found at the Abaquid junction on the road to Nagaparan and Ilocos Norte about 200m after Tuday Bridge.

Open from 6am till 7pm with inside and outside seating. There’s plenty of parking space too.

I’ve eaten here a few times and have always found their Miki to be tasty. Nice thin soft noodles, a thickish orange colour soup with an ample serving of meat garnished with a sprinkling of green onions.

.If you’re heading up to Ilocos Norte, MikeeGo is your last chance for refreshments for the next 50km or so.

Baldera’s Pancitan

PATUCANNAY, BANGUED

CLICK HERE FOR GOOGLE MAPS DIRECTIONS

Balderas (or Domeng’s as it is also known)  Panciteria is quite hard to find. It is tucked away in Brgy Patucannay, Bangued in what looks like an ordinary house.
Venture inside the gate though and you will find it full of people enjoying some Pancit Miki for their breakfast.

There is a large eating area at the front and more tables inside at the back where you need to go to order your Miki.

You need to be an early bird if you want to try Baldera’s fare, as they only make a limited quantity of noodles everyday and once they are gone, they are gone – usually around 11.00.

Most tricycle drivers know how to get there.

Sis Pancitan

ABRA-KALINGA ROAD, BRGY MACRAY, BANGUED

CLICK HERE FOR GOOGLE MAPS DIRECTIONS

Sis Pancitan can be found on the main Abra- Kalinga road in Barangay Macray, Bangued.
It’s set back from the road a few metres on the left as you are heading to Tayum, and not very obvious so you need to look out for it

Parking is limited and only roadside. The interior is simply decoratd, but clean and tidy.

The Miki is tasty and service very good. I ordered their special Miki, which came with a side dish of chopped liver and  green onions and another of chilli oil.

Sis Pancitan is only open from 6 to 11am and can get busy during those hours

​Belaras Pancitan and Sinanglawan

BRGY MADALIPAY, BUCAY

CLICK HERE FOR GOOGLE MAPS DIRECTIONS

Belaras Pancitan and Sinanglawan is my favourite spot to stop for breakfast when heading to Manabo and Luba.

It’s the first and last Pancitan in Bucay. Coming from Bucay it is on the right side just a few hundred metres before the Manabo Welcome Arch, making it the last Pancitan in Bucay, and of course the first when coming from Manabo!!!

A big bowl of their rich, tasty Abra miki will set you up for the day. Prices (Feb 2024) range from P25 to P50 depending on your choice of serving.

A bowl of Sinanglaw is P50 and rice P10. 

There is seating inside and also a few tables outside.

There’s plenty of parking for motorbikes in front of the Pancitan, while cars and trucks can park along the road.

T-Booms Pancitan

POBLACION, DOLORES

CLICK HERE FOR GOOGLE MAPS DIRECTIONS

An hours jeepney ride from Bangued is the small historical town of Dolores. As you enter the Poblacion, slightly set back on the left side of the road a small non-descript Bahay Kubo is the home of T-Booms Pancit Miki.

Named after the owners daughter, T-Booms is made from local bamboo and has a real authentic Provincial feel that compliments the goodness of their Pancit Miki.

Prices start at P20 for a bowl of “Ordinary”, with a “Super Special”  priced at P35.

There is plenty of parking in the car park or you can just park up along the roadside.

ArcAngel’s serves a really good Pancit Miki. Condiments are available to enhance the taste to your preferences.

Abra Miki Republic

POBLACION, LAGANGILANG

CLICK HERE FOR GOOGLE MAPS DIRECTIONS

Abra Miki Republic makes for a great Stopover along Route 204, the Abra Kalinga road, especially early morning when heading up to Licuan-Baay, Malibcong and Kalinga.

It’s on the left hand side of the road, just after entering Poblacion Lagangilang, 50 metres or so before the University gate.

There’s a small car park but it’s probably better to park roadside on the hard shoulder.

There are not many places to eat in the uplands of Abra, so Abra Miki Republic is probably your last chance to satisfy your cravings.

They have an extensive menu besides our favourite Abra Miki, which is very good by the way. The Miki is full of flavour with nice soft noodles and plenty of toppings.

Try their Miki Guisado for a really filling meal, or just a club sandwich and brewed coffee if you’re not too hungry.
