Lumpia and pancit Filipino-Chinese pre-colonial fusion

Based on the provided sources, only one LA Filipino restaurant explicitly mentions serving a specific regional variant of lumpia or pancit. Manila Inasal in Silver Lake lists ‘crispy Lumpiang Shanghai’ on its menu [2]. No other lumpia or pancit variants (such as pancit canton, pancit malabon, pancit palabok, lumpiang sariwa, or lumpiang ubod) are mentioned in the sources for any LA restaurant. Kuya Lord [1] is described as serving regional Filipino dishes from Lucena City, Quezon Province, but the source does not list specific lumpia or pancit offerings. Therefore, the only confirmed restaurant-variant pairing from the given sources is Manila Inasal serving Lumpiang Shanghai.
