I Tried My Friends Special Ginabot or Pig Viscera Street Food Cart
(Edited)
Hello and Good Day Foodies!
I wanna share my simple food experience when I bought a Special Chicharon Bulaklak or Ginabot in my local dialect or also known as a Pig Viscera in English. Basically a part of a pig's intestine is cooked to make this wonderful dish.
During lunch time earlier I was so hungry and was looking at my Facebook news feed when I saw one of my friends posted their new street food cart business. So I thought to myself I want to give it a try and see how it tastes.
I went to their street food cart which was located adjacent to our Barangay Hall and saw that their food cart was empty. So I asked my friend there the one wearing the grey jacket and long pants how much does each cost. Each one costs 25 pesos or $0.5 and apparently they have run out of cooked Ginabot at the moment but they are gonna cook some more. So I waited there patiently while taking photos and drooling over it 🤣 just kidding 😂
They are still preparing the dish right now by coating the pig viscera with pre-seasoned flour.
As you can see, even though they are selling food just beside the street, they still didn't forget proper hygiene when preparing food and used some sort of a plastic glove which for me is a really good sign, which means that the food they are selling is clean.
After coating all of the pig viscera with the pre-seasoned flour it is time to pour it into the big pan of boiling oil 😍. Looking at the oil boiling and the frying bubbles really looks amazing. I'm not new to this kind of stuff but I just find it fascinating, amusing and fun to watch 😎
The food was sitting in the hot oil and being fried for almost 5 minutes I guess, I didn't keep track of the time so I'm not quite sure but it was long since I was just staring directly at it while holding my phone watching for an opportunity to take a picture of it. After that sitting time the cook stirred it well for another 5 minutes or so after moving on the next procedure.
What the cook did next was he used a scissor to slice the middle part of each pig viscera. I'm guessing he did this so that the middle part will be well cooked as well. Since if you don't do that then the result would be only the outer part of it will be crispy leaving the middle part a little bit hard to chew. Doing this will ensure the middle part will be as crispy as the outer layer of it.
After that the cook have stirred it yet again for another 10 minutes and ensuring the crispiness is there without burning it.
And now it's cooked at last 🤤. He just put it in a strainer making sure to let the excess oil fall of before putting it inside their display glass container.
Now that looks delicious 🤩. I ordered 4 pcs for me and my son. This will be our lunch and dinner for later 😅
The taste didn't disappoint me, it was just the right crispiness and saltiness. The sauce that came with it is also good, it has the right blend of sweetness and sourness which compliments with the crispiness of the Ginabot.

We are Southeast Asians and street food are a part of our daily life style since we were kids. That’s why everytime I travel to other Asian countries, I always find street foods and night markets to visit and eat 😂
That is so true @alexbb9700 it's like we would not be Asians if we haven't even tried eating street foods 😂. And to be honest street foods is my go to place when I'm hungry, not only are they cheap but most of the time it's also delicious 😋
