Salcedo Weekend Market


Last week, we tried to go into one of the famous weekend markets in the metro and that is in Salcedo Market in Makati City. Its my first time to be here and I find it as if its the expensive side of Banchetto. It has a very spacious place that lets visitors walk around to their hearts content. Also, aside from food, they also merchandise other things like kitchenwares, potted plants, and wooden specialties.
Anyway, we came here for food and alas we found the best. We purchased the Paella Negra and Paella Seafood at P280 each. We also went ahead and purchase the takoyaki balls and Tortang Giniling.

The yummiest of them all - Paella Negra

Seafood Paella

Japanese Takoyaki
 The Paella Negra was my favorite of all. It was actually referred to me by one of my workmates as a must try in Salcedo Market and good thing I tried. Altough, it comes with a hefty price, it is still worth it. Its made basically of mixed rice with squid ink, sliced squids and shrimp. The seafood paella then is also a very tasty dish. It is a mixture of rice, seafood, pork and chicken. It is very loaded so its really heavy on the belly, anyway, it was really worth it. I was really full but we went ahead and ate the takoyaki balls and saved the Tortang giniling for lunch afterwards. There are more things/food to try out there and I am pretty sure that we will be back soon.
