Lumpia (Filipino Spring Rolls) in Winnipeg
Lumpia are the Filipino spring rolls that disappear from the table first. A savoury pork-and-vegetable filling is rolled thin, fried to a blistered golden crisp and served hot with a sweet-and-sour dipping sauce. They are on the buffet line every day at Kalan and they go out by the hundreds on our catering trays.
About Our Lumpia
Good lumpia is about the ratio: a thin wrapper, a well-seasoned filling and enough heat in the oil that the roll crisps before it can go greasy. We roll ours by hand and fry them through the day so the batch on the line is fresh rather than sitting. The shatter when you bite one is the whole point.
Alongside pancit, lumpia is the item local coverage keeps naming when it describes Kalan’s buffet and catering menus — the crowd-pleasing appetizer that works for a Filipino family gathering and for guests trying the cuisine for the first time.
What Makes Our Lumpia Special
We fry to order wherever we can, and for catering we time the trays so the rolls arrive hot and still crisp rather than steamed soft under foil. Ask for extra dipping sauce — nobody has ever regretted it.
Pairs Well With
Start with lumpia, then move on to pancit bihon and a plate of Filipino fried chicken. For a full spread, add kare-kare and steamed rice.
