A family panciteria on J.P. Rizal Street in Marikina, run by the de Guzman family for about 20 years, on a spot where a Chinese owned noodle kitchen operated from the 1930s. The order is bihon canton con litson: rice and egg noodles stir fried and topped with crispy pork, enough for two or three. Downstairs is mostly the order counter; eat at the seven tables upstairs.
