Halohalo of Tiwi

May 2nd, 2005

When we were at Legazpi, our team mates who were based in the area mentioned of going to Tiwi and try the halo-halo. This cold and sweet concoction, translating to “mix-mix” in English is a combination of shaved ice, milk, sugar, and various sweets like sweetened banana, leche flan, jalea de ube, kaong, jelly, and other sweet fruits/preserves, a wonderful treat especially during the hot summer months in the Philippines and is found nationwide.

The famed Tiwi halo-halo wherein what separates this one from the rest is that this is topped with grated cheese and the leche flan is very soft and blends well when mixed. Despite its fame, its ingredients are not as varied as those found in Chowking, a local Chinese fastfood restaurant. Nothing really earthshaking in this iced dessert.

The place to go to in Tiwi for the halo-halo.

When we went there, lots of people were coming, eating and going to this place.
