M’s Place: Must-Try Snack Bar in Siquijor
I’ve been stranded for two days in Siquijor for two days as of this writing. This is all because of tropical depression Seniang which turned into a storm and now, a typhoon.
When I had nothing left to do in my 350-peso room near the port, I walked around the town, then I found this snack bar along Caridad Street. I am reluctant to try unfamiliar food houses, however, when I saw that they had plenty of patrons (judging on the number of customers), I checked the place.
I noticed that most of the guests ordered siopao so I thought that it was their specialty. It turned out that I wasn’t wrong. I tried one at first, but ordered for additional two when I found it tasty. Really! Filled with bola-bola made of meat and eggs, it was one of the most savory siopao I’d tasted with a local twist. And, it only costed ₱15 a piece – cheap right? Yet only the price was cheap.
I also tried their halo-halo which was sought-after by the locals. It also has interesting and fruit-filled flavors, and I liked it.
They don’t have the banner outside stating the name of the place. I asked the cashier and she said that it’s M’s Place.
I will definitely spend some snacks here whenever I return to Siquijor. You should try it too.
