Hot Monay (with Palaman)
Salvation.
I was standing by the fishball stall in UP feeling hungry, waiting for the lumpia vendor to walk by. The heavens parted and the monay guy biked up.
I much prefer salty or herby bread to the sweet type, but this monay vendor was just so personable. He pitched some homemade peanut butter too, which was quite close to perfection.
