"So since I am on budget because I am afraid I can not go home due to over-spending with food, I have chosen to buy that 140-peso halo-halo which we shared with my bro. So that's 70 pesos per head since we have oh-so-good appetite."
No need to be rich with thousands in your pocket just to try to dine sosyal in a pa-sosyal restaurant in La Union called Halo-Halo de Iloko. You know, Palagutom Boy is very poor that he can only afford to eat cheap food with price from 100 pesos and below and he found what he is looking for in La Union. An affordable yet sulit halo-halo priced with only 140 pesos. It was big and it can be good for 3 (so it is about 45 pesos per head per share) unless if you have a huge appetite like Palagutom Boy.
Buko Halo-Halo Fiesta @ 140 pesos, about 45 pesos per head (Good for 2-3 persons)
So if you read my previous post, you will be aware why I am featuring these foods below. When I became gutom (that's the Tagalog for hungry, and so what?) in La Union, I looked for an affordable yet sulit food in Halo-Halo de Iloko and the first one that caught my attention is the Buko Halo-Halo Fiesta for 140 pesos which is good for 2-3 persons..
Copied from my travel blog, uh.
Copied from my travel blog again and why not coconut? | These are the prices. The chepaest is 55 pesos. It depends upon your appetite.
So since I am on budget because I am afraid I can not go home due to over-spending with food, I have chosen to buy that 140-peso halo-halo which we shared with my bro. So that's 70 pesos per head since we have oh-so-good appetite.
Ay nakalahati na agad?
Yun pala eh, kinuha ko na lahat. Hihi.
Yun oh! Mga palagutom boys! Hating kapatid lang! Note: Bawal ang magkapatid sa labas :0
So what else, else else? That what just our dessert, say? I told you this POOR food blogger became pasosyal here, but affordable naman :)
So this is what we ate for lunch with my palagutom buddy who happens to be oh-so poorer than me, and also happened to be my bro, my younger bro. I know I look younger :p
Bagnet! Yes, there is also Bagnet in La Union!
Sinigang | Halo-Halo de Iloko Style
Ayun! Don't worry these foods are both less than 100 pesos per single order with drinks and a good cup of rice. Don't ask me the taste because they are all excellent! No regrets!
That ends my La Union food trip. It was cheap but pa-sosyal ang peg. That's why Palagutom Boy, the poor food blogger felt like he was very rich dining here. In fact, he is poor!
Thank you for reading and we will be featuring more cheap food next time. This has been your poor food blogger, Palagutom Boy. Bye!
