Lomi or pancit lomi (Hokkien Chinese: 滷麵 / 扁食滷麵; Pe̍h-ōe-jī: ló͘-mī / pán-si̍t ló͘-mī) is a Filipino dish made with a variety of thick fresh egg noodles of about a quarter of an inch in diameter, soaked in lye water to give it more texture.[1] Because of its popularity at least in the eastern part of Batangas,[2] there are as many styles of cooking lomi as there are eateries, panciterias or restaurants offering the dish. Variations in recipes and quality are therefore very common.
