These are the exact addresses of Netflix Street Food Philippines
After binge-watching Netflix’s Street Food in one go, I immediately started looking for plane tickets. Here. I. Must. Go. But where exactly is ‘here’? Netflix does mention the names and cities, but not the addresses. I looked them up for you, made a map and am sharing it here. Long live the internet.
Entoy’s Bakasihan
According to chef Tatung Sarthou, Entoy’s Bakasihan serves the very best nilarang, a fresh fish soup. Florencia Escabas – better known as Entoy – uses reef eels, which make the soup so special. Entoy used to work as a fisherman, mainly catching reef eels, but nobody wanted to buy them at the time. So he looked for a way to use them that would actually make him money. With his wife’s help, he came up with his recipe for spicy reef eel nilarang. With great success. These days, Entoy’s daughter, Beda Escabas, and his other children run the business, and they have expanded the menu with more fish dishes.

Leslie’s Lechon
In 1940, Leslie Enjambre’s grandmother started the first lechon business in Talisay. Leslie is now the third generation in her family to sell lechon – whole roasted pig. She stuffs the pigs with garlic, star anise and salt and bathes them in soy sauce before roasting them over an open fire made with coconut wood. The result: a juicy piece of pork with an irresistibly crispy exterior.

Azul Tuslob-Buwa
Tuslob-buwa literally means dipping into bubbles, which is almost exactly what the dish involves. It is rice dipped into a gravy made from fried onions, garlic and pork brains. At Azul, Ian Secong and the team take the dish to a new level by encouraging customers to cook their own version on hotplates at the table.

Rubilyn’s Carinderia
Rubilyn Diko Manayon makes 18 different dishes at her stall, but her bestseller is the Chinese-style spring rolls. She uses garlic, onion, bell pepper, a mix of other vegetables and a little oil to make her simple but delicious spring rolls.
Cordova, Cebu, Philippines (okay, admittedly: unfortunately, we couldn’t find a more exact address than this. So to find Rubilyn, you’ll have to ask around when you get there)
