Cheap, heavy rice eats from the nearby palengke.
A neat little suman with glutinous or malagkit rice cooked in a bit of coconut milk. Banana leaf opened up, sprinkled with grated coconut and a chunk of raw sugar.
Malagkit rice with copious amounts of coconut milk and tied in a banana leaf like a little coin pouch. Unopened one on the left, wide open on the right. Super moist!
