Let's talk about food
In the last day, my friend invited me for errand around province. I was about not to bring my cellphone due to its low battery. We roam around, and unexpectedly to happen we came across street foods. It's fascinating cause the smells caught us. We can't cease ourselves and bought on of those.
I'm sure majority of you here love street food. It's really fascinating when you saw these. Street food is one of my daily snacks before, way back highschool and college days. It's pretty awkward but I tend to paired this with rice. Especially tempura and "shomai". Well, it's sounds great. Filipino street food is one of popular here in our country. And one thing in common asians do really love about street food. So, let's enumerate some of the unknown and known Filipino street foods.
Tempura
It's one of the best food that we have. In fact many people walking around the street are getting hooked and try to buy this street food. Not even us who bought these, also foreigners. Well, in experience about this food I've always paired this with "puso". Many of you here know about that. First, let me just give you illustration about puso.
It's triangle in shape. A hanging rice wrapped and boiled in a triangular casing of woven coconut leaves. Cebuano people are the first who made this impressive idea. Also, it is an icon of Cebuano street food, for the reasons both delicious and practical. It's organic materials use to wrap the rice contributes the best taste of it.
Squid balls
Oh my, this is my favorite. "It's a squid." I love this street food. Like, it so good when paired with extreme hot sauce. That your lips will break. This one of the popular food we have. Other countries have this kind of unique food. They made different recipes. I saw videos, i think it's Korean. They cook squid balls not drown with oil rather they have pan with 10 round holes. Through that they'll just brush slight fish oil and lastly it cooked.
Isaw
This is one of my favorite. It's so delicious to eat. One of the most popular Filipino street foods is the "isaw " Philippines. It is pork or chicken intestines that are typically barbecued or deep fried. You know ever I've eat this I always paired with "puso". Don’t worry because the intestines are cleaned thoroughly before grilling it.
What will you do if someone gives you this?
Haha, of course we'll not just stares on that. If someone give this naku impas pasok talaga yan lahat sa aking belly. I really love this. I have already tried all of this. It taste so heaven. This bunch of street foods can make our day cost free.

It's offers you bunches of food you've love. However prices are slightly higher. It can guarantee you the best taste of all cause ingredients are few. More or less one food there is cost $5-$20, depends on the quality of food.
People love street food and that's why it is wherever you goes street food is always there. It's part of our culture and our way of boasting our own recipes of food. We might encounter rare street food and we came into conclusion that it's adorable or not. But to think of they're not tolerate what they receive feedback. The most important thing is that they give pleasure to there customers.
