Cheap Merienda Fare

Tuesday Aug 22, 2006

food stalls
Merienda (Snacks) for budget conscious shoppers can be found at food stalls in shopping centers. This food stall is at Harrison Shopping Plaza in Manila. From Left to right :Kikiam, squid balls, pritong lumpia and other fried foods. Behind is pancit canton and pancit bihon . Each serving costs less than 20 pesos ( or half a dollar). I’ve never so many food stalls in a mall. I think Harrison Plaza ’s target market are the middle class crowd of Manila. I remember Harrison Plaza Mall as such an elite mall in the mid 1970’s. Those were the days when SM supermalls were not the latest trend.
