Foot and Fire

A Visit in Davao city is never complete without dropping by the famous Lola Abon's candied durian... And now, they have durian ice cream aside from their durian ice candy! *** Who wants this? *** I love these!!! ***

ULTIMATE MYANMARESE STREET FOOD: Pig mask and other internal organs in sticks. One has to cook it by dipping it in a boiling liquid in the center. The containers on the side are the condiments and the red ones must be chili... *** Watermelon for 900 kyatts. *** The whitish green watermelon. *** Sayote or squash leaves. *** Melon. *** I'm holding a honeydew. *** Golden-orange Papaya. *** Some deep-fried stuff: crabs, shrimps and some floured food. *** Just like the Thai papaya pickle. The woman is using the mortar and pestle to mash the spices and then she adds this to the raw green papaya. *** Must be jelly sweets. *** Cold desserts to quench the sun-dried palates. *** Ice cream from Nylon Ice cream parlor.  Quite a following among the locals for this dirty a.k.a. home-made ice cream. *** Rainbow ice cream. Choices vary from tropical fruit like Durian to the classic ones  like chocolate and vanilla.  ***
