    Yeah, I believe it's called "pancit lomi" and I've tasted it too at a Filipino friend's party. It's quite good. Here is a recipe for it:

    INGREDIENTS:

    1/2 k. of lomi noodles

    1 c. of diced cooked chicken meat, squid and shrimp

    1 carrot, julienned

    1 c. of diced leeks (white and light green parts only)

    7 c. of chicken broth (unsalted)

    2 eggs, beaten

    1 tbsp. of cooking oil

    1 tbsp. of finely minced garlic

    1 onion, halved and sliced thinly

    1/2 tsp. of sesame seed oil

    salt and pepper to taste

    DIRECTIONS:

    Heat a casserole. Pour in the cooking oil. Saute the garlic and onion until fragrant. Add the julienned carrot and stir for 30 seconds. Add the chopped chicken meat, squid and shrimp and continue cooking over high heat for another 30 seconds. Pour in the chicken broth and bring to a boil. Add the egg noodles and simmer for 10 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Add the leeks. Pour in the beaten eggs in a thin stream, stirring continuously. Turn off the heat and stir in the sesame seed oil. Serve hot.
