There is a diverse food culture called " Street Foods" .. These Veterans prepare anything from Manhattan Hot Dogs & Salty Pretzels, Cocas (Mallorcan Pizzas without cheese), Ceviche in Miraflores, Peru, In Hong Kong, Prawns in a Brown Paper Cone, & in Manhattan, there are loads of food trucks as well with Cotton Candy, Ice Creams, Sándwiches and Latin Chili, Tamales and other assorted quick savory snacks such as Empanadas for example ..
Do you believe it is safe to eat Street Food ? Which Street Foods do you have a penchant for ? Which Street Foods do you avoid ?
Here in Spain, it is not a common daily experience, however, on the Balearic Island of Mallorca, it is common place to have a traditional Coca ( a Mallorcan Pizza without cheese prepared with fresh vegetables) .. Never a doubt about the ingredients employed ..
I had been to Hong Kong and Peru and in both these two cities, I had some "Street Food" recommended by a Professional Contact .. The fish was quite amazing .. However, if I had not known the vendor, I might have been a bit hesitant .. Perhaps also not speaking Hong Kong Chinese, this could also raise a few questions for me, that I would of liked to ask ..
We had no problems in Peru as of course, we speak the same language.
I never eat anything deep fried on the Street in unknown oil varieties .. My delicate stomach would go into a psychotic state ..
The most interesting is the Michelin Star food stall of Singapore, owned and operated by Chan Hon Meng called: Hong Kong Soya Sauce Chicken, Rices & Noodles .. Congratulations Chef Chan Hon Meng .. This was written up in London´s Restaurant Magazine and The Guardian. If ever in Singapore, definitely shall check it out ..
On four trips we had taken to Manhattan to attend The World´s Travel Tourism Conventions, I had seen uncountable Hot Dog vendors and Salty Pretzel vendors. They are quite renowned there .. I am not a fan of neither .. My husband was curious & enjoyed an order of, a 100% Beef Kosher Hot Dog with Sauerkraut and a Chocolate covered Pretzel !
