My number one choice is Balut. Sort of like a crunchy boiled egg. You can find it with street vendors.   :thumbsup:

Mine too, but I like it with a dash of spicy vinegar. Also, Balut is said to be an aphrodisiac :)

Well! If someone is recommending Balut, I might as well mention Dinuguan. That's coagulated pig's blood cooked with vinegar.

If you are looking for something more international with a local flavor, try Jollibee. Tastes like burgers with a local barbecue flavor.

Lechon baboy or lechon manok (whole roasted pig or chicken)

BBQ skewers from the street vendors

Mung bean soup

Fresh bread (pan) from any of the local bakers - I like the pan de letche great for breakfast

That's a number 16 Balut. My asawa gets them and I always get nauseous. Not too fond of duck embryo [emoji40]

Pancit Bihon - Rice noodles, chicken, veges stirfried

Kinilaw - Tuna, Tanigue or Shrimp in Vinegar, Onion, Garlic, Ginger, Hot Peppers and Cucumbers

Chicharon Manok - Deep fried Chicken Skins with beer is most excellent http://reelandgrill.blogspot.com/2011/08/chicharon-balat-ng-manok-or-tsitsarong.html
