Pancit palabok is a traditional dish consisting of thin rice noodles doused in a creamy shrimp-infused sauce and complemented with various toppings such as hard-boiled eggs, pork cracklings, shrimps, pork, fish flakes, and scallions. This classic is one of the most famous varieties of the traditional pancit dishes and it is considered to be an authentic Filipino invention, unlike other Chinese-influenced versions.

Even though it is commonly prepared at many Filipino households, this national favorite is typically prepared for special and festive occasions.
