Trying street foods in the Philippines is very fun,
challenging and saves some of your budget. Street foods are mostly spotted on
schools, bus or jeep terminals, church, and parks. Prices of these street foods
cannot go beyond 20 pesos or approximately 0.50 US dollars. And although most
are best served hot, Filipinos can’t be stopped from eating these unhealthy yet
flavorful snacks.
Street food is ready-to-eat food or drink sold in a street
or other public place, such as a market or fair, by a hawker or vendor, often
from a portable stall. While some street foods are regional, many are not,
having spread beyond their region of origin. Most street foods are also classed
as both finger food and fast food, and are cheaper on average than restaurant
meals.

Summer days, many different kinds of street food – some old,
some newly-invented – rule the roads. And although most are best served hot,
