Foodtrip: Asiong – My search of Cavite’s original dish “Pansit Pusit”
Iv’e been traveling a lot to places far from home, exploring attractions, trying out cuisines but I never really had a chance to look at what Cavite has to offer.
So for the past two weeks, I’ve been spending my spare time researching about the places and food its known for.
The very first thing that I found is the dish they call “Pansit Pusit”. It’s a noodle dish which main ingredients are pancit bihon or sotanghon and squid instead of pork or chicken meat.
In the search for a place for me to taste this dish, my best pal Google gave me the name Asiong.
The Place
Asiong originated from Cavite City but their restaurant is now located in Silang Cavite. They’ve been serving Caviteños since 1960s and guess what? They’re most popular dish? “Pansit Pusit”.
The Route
We got there by car, but I’ve seen tricycles around the place so I think it’s reachable for commuters though I’m not really sure.

Final Thoughts
I’m a man of few words, what can I say? the owner was very welcoming, great food, and by the way that Pansit Pusit rocks! I’ll definitely eat here again.
