Philippines: Oslob Food Stall

The drive from Panagsama Beach to Oslob took about two and a half hours.  We arrived in the late afternoon and with nothing planned until the following morning, we set out to explore the town center.  After taking way too many photos at the Cuartel Ruins, we redirected our attention towards finding food.

We didn't have to look very far.  Right in front of the Oslob Tourism Office was a bunch of food stalls offering a variety of skewers.  We picked this one because the lady was super nice:


We made our selection and then sat at a table to wait.  Before long, our skewers were ready.

We got an order of grilled squid:


There were a bunch of different kinds of pork skewers.  Without really knowing the difference between each, we just randomly picked a few:


All of them came glazed in this sweet sauce.

For CL, we also got a grilled fish:


My one request was to get grilled eggplant:


It came smothered in tomatoes and red onion and ended up being this really refreshing salad of sorts.

From the stall next door, we bought a bag of lechon:


In typical street food fashion, the sauce came packaged in this plastic bag:


Super cheap, super simple, and super delicious.  The sound of cars rumbling down the road paired with the feel of the wet nose of a dog begging for scraps under the table...there's nothing better than eating at a street stall.
