Notable Edibles #2 – Street Food (Bonifacio Street)

Street Food (Bonifacio Street)

Street food, it forms a huge part of the dining scene probably in every country and in every city in the world.  In the City of Pines, these little snackables are mostly found near schools.

Walking along Mabini Street just recently, I noticed that the area where the stall of Aquino’s used to be had been fenced off.  (Probably another “on this site will rise” a commercial building *sigh.)

(I hope Aquino’s wonderful store of tokeneng, mango halves that you “use” like a spoon for the shrimp paste and palamig/coolers just moved someplace nearby … if they did, UB people please give me a heads up about where I can find them . Thanks, guys! I really appreciate it. (“,))

The Weird, The Lovely and The Delicious at Ramos Kambingan (Slaughter Compound)

As I have mentioned before, there are quite a few eateries located out in Slaughter Compound (something like seven or eight stalls, not just five *hihi).  With one place tried and blogged about, it wouldn’t be fair if the others are left in the background. So let’s look closely at another place where to eat in Baguio that’s standing shoulder  to shoulder with Nico’s Restaurant.

Let’s give a warm welcome to Ramos Kambingan and Seafood House! =D

UPDATE: Kambingan sa Scout Barrio (formerly Tabligan’s)

Mission: Look for and dine at Crazy Chef.

That was Karla’s find which she told me about in December of last year.  She did mention in our Barn experience though that she wasn’t sure if they were still open (startup troubles, something or other. I’m keeping my fingers crossed that they work-ed things out.) To Loakan, Race and I rode, almost getting to PMA. We didn’t see Crazy Chef on either side of the street, both ways, coming and going.  (My bad for not rereading Karla’s directions before embarking on the journey. =b)

We were prepared enough, however, in that we had a backup plan.  We learned a little something about how to do proper recon, from my brother. *hee

Plan B:  Tabligan Kambingan sa Scout Barrio … and what a great fallback it was. (“,)
