fishballs, originally uploaded by gratitude.







What's your fancy?

Photo was taken during the December fair at the boys' school. We felt kinda brave enough to try the ambulant vendor's tempura. Half-worried about risking an infection, we dared to eat the ubiquitous street-food.

Perhaps seeing how we enjoyed the fare, soon the other students and parents followed. :D Heh...

  1. Before I had typhoid - I used to eat everything found on the street corners Manong's cart - from fishballs, to kwek kwek, to betamax and IUD. Ngayon, given the chance, I'm limited to dirty ice cream, pinya at skrambol...and of course - ang walang kamatayang BananaQ!

  2. HI JUNNIE!
    I never got to like betamax (blood). Is IUD the chicken intestine? This one Jerry and I craved for a while when we were still single, until we realized how much bad cholesterol and uric acid it gives.

    I also like kamote-cue and grilled corn. Oh and even taho (soya)! Those were the days....

  4. Happy new year!

    My fave street foods are: mangga with bagoong (for some odd reason mas masarap lagi ang bagoong na nilalako..must be the dust. LOL), fishball and taho. :)

  7. FISHBALLSSSSSSSSSS and TAHOOOOOOOOOOO! hehehe

    pag umuwi ako dyan, my cousins will find a vendor na para everyday pumunta sa haus... and for the time we're there(which is between 2wks-1mo) siguro i can spend a pretty good 200$ just for fishballs and taho! lol

  10. HI MEEYA!
    Hahahaha.... understandable. Pero you could actually rent squid ball and dirty ice cream carts for special events like kiddie parties... Yun mas safe kainin siguro. :D

  11. Hi Linnor! Bigla kong na-miss ang fishball with sweet and spicy sauce because of your entry! :) San ako maghahanap nyan dito sa Texas? Hahaha! Pero diba, ang fishball hindi kasing sarap pag sa bahay ginawa? I think it's really the sauce. Hee hee hee! :)

  12. well im fond of street foods.. you're treating street food as hitler :P they are not bad, i agree that infections can spread if they are not properly marinated but until our body gets a glimpse of various virus and bacterias we will remain weaker.. so street food have those joyous moments withing tht we cannot share wid our frnds n family in resturaunts and cafes so..
