Balut....yum

As for food, no two dishes are the same. Anywhere you go, there will always be a different culinary delight to please your palate. Seriously, the most wicked (but surprisingly delicious) thing I ever tasted was their renowned "balut" or duck egg with a nearly formed embryo of a duckling inside. Locals usually laugh when tourists try it and then hurl at the sight of what they're about to eat. Believe me, it's a culinary experience you wouldn't want to pass up, no matter how icky it looks! It's mostly sold on the streets where available, along with other local delicacies (all of which are within your prescribed budget). Apart from that, the rest of the Philippine cuisine is deliciously whacked!
