My top 5 Filipino Street Food
Street foods comes from the word itself. A food in the street π There's a lot of street foods here in the Philippines. A different version in a different places. I have tasted some of the street foods here and I have my personal favorite. I will share it with you guys and let's check if its your favorite too. I will start at my top 5 Top 5 - Fishball, Kikiam and squid balls.
These street food is very common in the Philippines. You can see vendors of these street foods anywhere. Usually they have a cart so that they can switched places to get more customers. **Fishball, Squidball** and **Kikiam** are made of fish and squid paste then added a cornstarch to make it firm. They also added seasonings then they fry it as you can see in the image above. It is best serves with sweet and sour sauce ( for me). Fishball costs. 50cents per peice while the kikiam is 1php. The squid ball costs 2.50php per piece. How affordable isn't it? Top 4 - Roasted High Land Legumes ( Peanut )
**Roasted Peanut** or **Adobong Mani** is fried peanuts with garlic. There are two type of peanut that they offer, the one who has skin that looks like in the image and the one without skin. The one without skin is more bigger than with skin. You can also add chili on it if you want to. I love these street food because I can eat it when Im in the bus going home. There are also peanut vendor who sell inside the bus. Roasted peanut costs 5 to 10 pesos. It depends on how much do you want. Top 3 - Ihaw Ihaw
**Ihaw ihaw** comes from the English word " grilled ". Filipinos are resourceful. They discover a lot of body parts of chicken that can be eaten. Example of Ihaw ihaw is Chicken intestine, Chicken blood, Chicken Feet and Chicken head. They also had a barbeque and hotdogs. Other people doesn't want to try it but its actually taste good. It is best serves with vineagar sauce. Ihaw ihaw costs depends on the place but its actually range from 5 to 20pesos. Top 2 - Chicken Skin
Chicken Skin is from the word itself again π It a skin of a chicken breaded with flour and fried until it becomes crispy. I am addicted to these street food. Every other day I am craving for chicken skin. But unfortunately Philippines is under GCQ so I am not able to buy one. Chicken skin costs 10 to 20 pesos per cup. Top 1 - Egg waffle / Kwek kwek
My all time favorite **Kwek Kwek !** Egg waffle or kwek kwek is made of quail eggs coated with orange batter then fried. It is best serves while its hot and partner with sweet and sour sauce. Theres a place here in the Philippines that I will recommended to buy kwek kwek. Its located near Boni LRT station. I love their kwek kwek there. You can get a lot of cucumber to add on your kwek kwek. You can buy 1 stick of kwek kwek for only 15php. 1 stick has already 4 pcs. So thats all guys.

Neon balls πππ but gosh, i really missed eating all of those. I'm honestly settling for eating them in a homecooked style but the ones outside really hits different
I remember the student from La Salle with that neons balls hahaha.
Hey, it was a cute trend while it lasted
Yeah hehe
Street foods are delicious but consuming it regularly can harm our health, I prefer to cooked it at home, we can assure its cleanliness. Health is wealth, street foods can cause Hepa A.
Yeah. Everything that is too much is bad. Health is wealth padin.
Tama sis π kung ano kasi ang bawal yun ang masarap eh hahaha
hahaha. Filipino tayo e π
Hahaha bsta Filipino pasaway π
I miss eat hehehe...
Street food are always delicious. I think so. I eat so much street food always. And this street food looks so yummy. π
I love kwek kwek too! haha
Yes, it's delicious. Yet it can harm your health because of too much oil and it can cause sickness too. In your top 5 which i really love to eat are kikiam, fishball, barbeque and kwek kwek. In kikiam, fish ball and barbeque i can cook it at home but not the kwek kwek. I don't know how to cook it. Sometimes if you go to street vendors you don't know how they cook it, if it is clean right? That's why i prefer cooking at home. I remember kwek kwek from super inggo before when i was child. Inggo's favorite food is kwek kwek with his bestfriend. By the way, love your article.
Yeah. I also remember that. Pampalakas nila yon hahaha. Blentungan na hahaha.
I loved all those 5 but it's not my top favorite haha! On top of my list are liver and kalamares. But eating street food, too much can harm our body we can acquire hepatitis and other health issues so be careful.π
I dont eat liver π Hindi naman panay yung kain. Moderated padin dapat.
I love isaw, fishball and kikiam hehehe and also balot ππππ
Hindi ako nakain ng balot. Huhu
Bakit hahaha masarap un.
Hindi hahahaha.
Try mo ung masarap hahahaha
Appetizing. I miss them. Before pandemic starts, we go to the nearest place to buy them for a snack. Now, I don't know where to find them. especially the peanut. We can buy peanuts at the market but not roasted. And the garlic with it. Hmm. Makes me crave.
In our place there's a lot of online sellers that sell roasted peanut π
Yea but I miss the aroma that you can smell while walking when the vendor was still cooking it. Thats why you stop and buy some. And the garlic is still hot and crispy.
Nag crave ako tuloy bigla haha
Chicken skin and ihaw-ihaw. π Nakaka miss mag kutkot ng paa ng manok. π
I miss to eat them again. I wish there is no virus
Kaya nga. Wala pa kasi nagtitinda ngayon
All time favorite .kwek kwek, kikiam, squid ball.
Yes I love street foods but before buying it observe first if it is done in a safe and clean way .It is cheap amount but if you got sick in eating it you will regret it later
Just buy on the store that yoiu trusted.
Whoa! Nagutom ako bes.. Hahaha..π
