Disneyland is all about NEW these days!

Welcome, BigBoi Lumpia Co!

The theme park is wrapping up its big 70th anniversary celebrations and planning BIG things for the future. While we made our way through the resort hunting for all of the big updates and new changes, we noticed we were a little peckish! What better way to satisfy our hunger than to check out the brand-new BigBoi Lumpia Co. snack stand in Downtown Disney?

Welcome to Downtown Disney, BigBoi Lumpia! This is a Los Angeles-based company that focuses on Filipino comfort food, specifically lumpia. This new snack stand offers up three savory lumpia and two sweet lumpia. During our stop by, they also had a sign for a limited-time apple pie flavor.

The menu

During our stop by, we tested out 3 of the new flavors, starting with the Pork Lumpia for $14. This snack comes with a sweet chili sauce and 12 lumpia in each box.

Two of our items together!

While they might look small and simple from the outside, the inside packs a punch of flavor. The seasoning on the pork was very apparent and perfectly savory. Every bite into the snack came with a perfect crunch thanks to the deep-fried thin pastry that serves as the outside. These were filled with pork, veggies, and more for balance in every bite.

A look inside the Pork Lumpia

The sauce that comes with it pairs wonderfully with the pork. It was slightly sweet with a nice kick of subtle heat from the chilis. This could be sharable, but we didn/’t want to share it!

Be sure to dip it!

We also tried the Chicken Lumpia for $14. They are also served 12 in a box with sweet chili sauce on the side. Don’t be fooled, from the outside they look just like the pork, but there is a difference!

The chicken and the pork lumpia are side by side.

In our opinion, the chicken isn’t as flavorful as the pork, but we still really enjoyed them. The chicken flavor is milder than the pork, with less savory seasoning. The chicken also seems to have more veggies in each bite, but that could also be that the vegetable flavor stands out more with the milder chicken. The sauce has the same sweet and spicy balance that made each bite a bit more dynamic and exciting. If you’re looking to try the snack but want something with more familiar flavors, this might be a good option for you!

Finally, we grabbed the Ube Lumpia for $13.50. This was the sweet option of the bunch, and it was quite a bit bigger than the savory ones. These come with a vanilla icing sauce.

The Ube compared to the Chicken Lumpia

For those unfamiliar, ube is a purple yam that is native to the Philippines and offers a sweet and almost nutty flavor. In our experience, Ube can be a difficult flavor to master because it can often times come across as artificial. Luckily, that was not the case with this dessert! This snack had a natural sweetness that we really appreciated, and the texture was a bit thicker.

Inside the Ube!

The sauce was a real standout here. It was similar to a thick vanilla pudding that paired beautifully with the crunchy lumpia. This was a big hit for us!

How tasty!

Honestly, you can’t go wrong with any of these items based on our experience, and they’re perfectly shareable for your entire group. Be warned, you might need to go back for more if you really love them! We can’t wait to see more changes as they come to Disneyland, but for now, you can find us over at BigBoi Lumpia.
