Street Foods Around the World

The World Street Food Congress is in the Philippines! Yes, that is right. From April 20 to 24, 2016 people can taste the different street foods in Asia and other part of the world. Of course, it also offers some foods that one can taste in the Northern and Southern part of the Philippines.

Gear up with your most comfortable clothes and a lot of patience because the line can be really very long. 



One of the Filipino foods that is included on the food jamboree. This food came from the bicol region. Also a must try is their sili ice cream.


This is another food from the Philippines from Up North. It is called Kiniing Inapoy-Bingungen. Its concept is like the Sushi from Japan.


This is just a glimpse of Singapore Seafood platter.The seafood platter has softshell crab, calamari, eggplant and with three dip sauce - chili crab sauce, pepper sauce and salted egg yolk sauce.


Another food from Singapore is the Har Cheong Kai with potato fries. It is not just your ordinary chicken because the taste of it is different from the regular fastfood chickens.


A personal favorite of my friend is the carrot cake which is also from Singapore. This white radish cake is still handmade and steamed in aluminum bowls. 


This is Indonesia's Ayam Taliwang. This is the spiciest grilled chicken in Indonesia. It has a smoky aroma that can really make you hungry.


From Vietnam is Bahn Can & Banh Xeo which is a traditional Vietnamese snack. While on the line you can see how they cook this food and you'll see how interesting they made this delicious food.


Sticky Rice Banana is a popular food in the South of Vietnam. The banana is covered by the sticky rice, then it is wrapped in banana leaf then cooked in the grills.


 One of the foods with the longest line is Indonesia's Martabak Markobar. Its chocolate overload for this dessert. You can have Nutella, Tim Tam, Toblerone and Kit Kat but they also have cheese and green tea as toppings.


My personal favorite is the Churros Sundae from America. Waiting in the long line is worth it for this dessert. The crispy churros is served with Vanilla ice cream drizzled with chocolate, strawberry and caramel sauce. A really must-try!


I just hope that this would not be the first and last that we would be hosting the World Street Food Congress. I'm praying that they will come over to the Philippines again next year!
