Cebu is not only known for it's famous Sinulog Festival, white sand beaches and it's historic buildings. It is also known for its great food.
Everybody loves food, and the Cebuano's are one of them. Cebu has a wide range of restaurants, may it be local and international. If you're in the area, you shouldn't miss the chance to try the mouthwatering food the Queen City of the South has to offer.
Today we're not going to talk about the fancy restaurants you should try in Cebu but instead we'll talk about these sidewalk delicacies found all around Cebu, pungko-pungko.
What is Pungko-pungko?
Pungko-pungko are food stalls which sells a wide choice fried food, they are usually found along the busy streets of Cebu.
Pungko is the Cebuano term for squatting, which is what you do when going to a pungko-pungko. Given the low benches and small tables you will have to slump over while eating. For that reason it is called "pungko-pungko".
Pungko-pungko is great for people who are on a budget, wants to save time and for students like me. Also the food is delicious and affordable.
Nowadays there are lots of pungko-pungko stalls everywhere but the one I went to was the one in Labangon, people say the popular hotspots for pungko-pungko are the ones in Fuente, Redemptorist Church, and in Cebu Doctor's University beside McDonalds.
Foods you can enjoy in pungko-pungko
The food you find in a pungko-pungko vary from stall to stall but they typically consist of lumpia, ngohiong, bola-bola, hotdog, longganisa, ginabot, crab meat, eggs, okoy (shrimp cake) and many more assortments of fried food which are all best paired with vinegar and puso (hanging rice).
Although pungko-pungko may not be for everyone and it may not be the healthiest, it will still have a place for those who grew up in Cebu.
