Banana cue (Camote-cue), street foods in Manila, Philippines
The street sweets in Manila
In Manila, there were various snacks sold on the street.
Sometimes, the foreign tourists might be far from the local rural area. I am
writing about the banana cue as the streets sweet in Manila.

Banana is the most major agricultural products in
Philippines. Banana from Philippines were very common fruits in Japan.
The banana cue is popular street food to Filipino but un-familiar
to foreigners. These sweets were normally sold at the stands on the local
streets.

The lady at the stand has made the cue. She fried the banana
and sprinkled it with brown sugar. The recipe was very simple.
Frying the Bananas
The taste is unsophisticated, sweet and a little bit oily, real
fried banana. But we can briefly see the local street life.

Bingzan, Datong qu, Taipei (冰讃, 台北), Taiwan
The Mangos
cultivated in Taiwan were very nice. The colour, flavour and taste, all factors
remind me where I am. The apple mango has yellow orange, soft and low fibber
texture, sweet and great flavour. The ripped raw mango has sticky texture with
strong sweet flavour.
We can enjoy
bowls of shaved ice in this shop. The middle aged lady shaved a large ice. The
desert was soft ice like snow powder. This shop had two types of the ice: normal
water ice and condensed milk. 芒果雪花冰is the condensed milk type and 芒果牛奶冰
is normal water type. Once I brought the ice and mango
into my mouth, I had enjoy the harmony of sweet taste snow and sticky tropical
fruits.

This desert
stand opened from May to November which is just the season they can get the
delicious mango.
