Isaw

Well it had to happen - the girls from work have been very excited that I have been trying the local Philippino delicancies. Fortunately for me, so far these have consisted of things like monggo bread (mung bean bread), sweets, different types of rice cakes (buko, puto and babinka), fried fish balls and things that are definitely edible. Yesterday however, I had the honour of being treated to a popular Philippino delicacy at the University of the Philipinnes after a UNIFEM workshop meeting in Quezon City with my workmates - isaw.

Isaw baboy and isaw manok - pig intestines and chicken intestines on a stick. Yum yum! Wasn't too bad actually - a little chewy!

I was able to find a picture of the same isaw stall at UP on the internet!
