Banancue: Human's Greatest Invention
April 8, 2015
This majestic wonder of beauty definitely deserved it's own article.
Looking back on our six months in Asia, the one food that keeps my mouth watering when I think about it is the Philippines' bananacue.
The Philippines - the country home to my favourite view and snack.
Yes, I am just as surprised that the least-vegan-friendly country we have ever visited has the one snack I loved most, but seriously...bananacue is amazing.
Banancue from the streets of El Nido on Palawan island.
Bananacue is an entire banana deep fried in oil and brown sugar. I know what you're thinking - it sounds awful for you, and trust me, it absolutely is. But the taste...it's so...indescribably delicious.
It is typically found as street food in the Philippines. I luckily found it in El Nido, Port Barton, and Puerto Princessa during our three weeks in Palawan, so I frequented these stalls at least once a day!

The cost (for tourists, at least) was around $1 for 5 pieces (around 10 peso per piece) - very inexpensive.
So if you're travelling the Philippines...you must try banancue!
