Since the Sinulog fiesta kick started last week, street food vendors nearby has emerged. Maybe because they knew that there's a need of food supply for the mass attendees.
I was able to try some street foods during one of the novenas. And I tell you, their supplies are almost always sold out. I even saw a vendor buying from other vendors a wholesale of kwekwek just so he could resell some. Although the question of sanitary remains unanswered. That's the culture of this place.
We found this mini food hall nearby the Cathedral that sells all kinds of snacks. Since my friend was craving for corn dogs, we decided to give it a try. Plus, they sold their corn dogs at 3 for 100 pesos, much cheaper compared to other stalls.
I ordered their avocado shake since I was more thirsty than hungry. Normally, I don't order drinks on street foods as I know that the probability of contamination is high, but I got tempted. Besides, it's a made to order drink, anyway. Atleast I can see with my eyes how they made my shake.
The taste was more milky than there is avocado, sadly. So I didn't finish my drink.
My friends bought dirty ice cream nearby too.
After all the food trips we had that day, I went home and went straight to bed. But then, I got stomach ache in the middle of the night. I suspected the avocado shake as the culprit since it's made out of evaporated milk.
The next day, I got sick so I wasn't able to go to the Novena. And that's how the snowball effect of not completing the Novena started.
But what's done is done. I still had fun in our food trip.
That's it for today's blog. See you in my next one!
Sending some love and light
With love, Jane
