One cannot satisfy a hungry stomach by rushing to the nearest resto while on the busy streets of Cebu. Instead, he stops, turns to his side and voila! Oh yes, no Cebuano could just pass a long line of street foods without consuming one.
Aside from the finest beaches and the historical landmarks of Cebu, one can indulge himself in a variety of street foods which are absolutely noticeable anywhere along the streets of the Metro City.
Not only that these foods are cheaper but also, these can provide enough nutrition one needs to stay on the go.
So here are the most common of the many street foods in Cebu which you want to try while skidding on the crowded street of the city.
Kwek-kwek. A hard boiled egg rolled in orange-colored flour. For only 10 pesos, you'll have three pieces of this egg which is a natural combatant against digestive tract disorders such as stomach ulcers. Best paired with sauce of your choice, sweet sauce, chili sauce, or you may mix the two.
Balut. Boiled partially developed duck embryos. Though it looks bizarre, it is tasty enough for Cebuanos who season it with salt, vinegar or soy sauce. It is popularly believed to be an aphrodisiac and considered a high-protein, hearty snack.
Taho. A childhood favorite for most of the Cebuanos. It used to be a morning snack like before or after breakfast but now, it is available the whole day ready to be consumed. Made of fresh silken tofu, brown sugar syrup and sago. A healty consumption of taho can aid in preventing pre-mature aging and can also increase bone-density in female spines.
Banana cue. Another all-time favorite of the Cebuanos. Fried banana on sticks coated in a caramelized brown sugar. Some say its best as an afternoon snack Health benefits of bananas are that they also have iron that promotes hemoglobin production for blood clotting, fibers that promote, restore and maintain regular bowel movement.
Saang (spider shell). A common source of protein. This street food is more attractive to men. A seafood's flesh taken out of its shell after being boiled and then dipped in vinegar. It is more delicious if it's freshly cooked.
Street foods offer a timely and economical alternative solution for one's crying stomach but there should be moderation in munching one.
What's proper is to wisely choose the food you eat, proper exercise and positive outlook in life. That makes a real fit.
