I just had my first Tuslob Buwa today!
My fiance and some of our friends just decided to eat tuslob buwa, I don't even know if I spelled it right. Well, anyway it's a street food, I'm not sure if it is that common here in Cebu. But for that area where we went to have this experience it was a familiar and ordinary thing, Pasil is the place. Yeah.. it was an amazing sight for it was also my first time to really go deep into the place. Lots of little stalls on the streets selling various foods, there's banana-ques, sandwiches stand where you get to choose what kind of spread you want, food carts where puso is a recognizable sight and of course street foods- tempura, saang, fish balls, balot and all, trycicles, and kids playing and running on the street. The place is a busy street where orinary life and social economics is in sync.
Going back to what ate, so what is tuslob buwa? They say, I'm not really sure if it's right.... I'm kinda afraid to ask what really makes out of it because I may not eat it, so I settled to what I first heard.... it's a dish made out of a pig's brain and liver. The dish is eaten with puso, (hanging rice). The fun side of eating tuslob buwa is that, you have to wait for the dish to boil and when it starts to bubble you scoop it out with the puso and on to your mouth. So it's eating straight from the cooking pan. You have to be careful not to burn your finger nor your tongue. :)
