Filipinos love Lumpia because it is a delicious dish that can be served as an appetizer, main course or snack.
It has a light and crunchy wrapper with savory meat filling inside. It’s best eaten fresh out of the pan with soy sauce mixed in, but some people like to eat it cold.
Lumpia is made of thin egg-roll wrappers stuffed with ground pork, shrimp or vegetables then deep fried.
I love the way it tastes when I eat it with vinegar, soy sauce, sugar, and chili peppers.
Some people love the versatility of the dish and how it can be used to celebrate different occasions. Others enjoy the textures and flavors of lumpia, while some simply enjoy the convenience of having a complete meal all in one bite.

An hors d'oeuvre (/ɔːr ˈdɜːrv(rə)/ or DURV(-rə); French: hors-d'œuvre [ɔʁ dœvʁ]), appetiser or starter is a small dish served before a meal in European cuisine. Some hors d'oeuvres are served cold, others hot.
Lumpia is typically an appetizer dish. People gravitate towards this savory snack, enjoying the happiness it gives them before the main dishes are served. It creates that initial excitement that the celebration has started.
Filipino lumpia can be differentiated from other Asian spring roll versions in that they use a paper-thin wrapper made from just flour, water, and salt.
Lumpia isn't just a dish; it's a story of cultural exchange and evolution. Originating from Chinese cooking and adapted by Filipinos, these rolls symbolize celebration.
Lumpia was introduced to the Philippines during the pre-colonial period by early Hokkien immigrants and traders from Fujian between 900 and 1565 AD. The name is derived from Hokkien, a language that originated in southeastern China: "lun" means wet, moist, or soft, and "pia" means cake or pastry.
