The Best Lugaw in the City with Erwan Heussaff

Arroz Caldo or is a universal comfort food and Erwan Heussaff is here to share his go-to “Lugawan” in Manila! Lugawan sa Tejeros is a local institution when it comes to making this well-loved rice porridge where the lines get really long during peak hours which speaks volumes about the quality of their food. Erwan is back to try his favorite bowl of lugaw and he’s trying his hand at his own arroz caldo recipes back in the studio.

This video was made with the help of the new Samsung Galaxy Tab S9, it has a huge Dynamic AMOLED 2X Screen, a powerful S Pen, the blazing fast speeds of the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 and I think my favorite part is that it’s durable and water resistant. We use it for Storyboarding, work on the go, editing social media videos and as a monitor during my shoots.
