Good advice, do not self medicate, seek professional help, Doctor. Spend thousands to get there, hotels, girls etc just to eat street vendor food? Not me.

I only eat in restaurants, food courts or home but if I get sick I never self medicate. Straight to the doctor.

Posts: 765Phillipine street food attcks
I tended to eat street food in just about every country I have visited without ay problems. But when I was in AC 3 years ago, towards the end of my trip there, I started having stomach problems. I only had Imodium AD (loperamide) and that tended to control it a bit but not cure it. I had to travel to Manila to flight to Cambodia for the second part of my trip and for two further weeks, my stomach was tender. I even went to a Pharmacy and took whatever they gave me but it would not go away. When I got back, my doctor gave me 1000 MG of Cipro and bang, I felt a weight off my shoulders and stomach felt good. Now, I always carry a bottle of Cipro with me together with Imodium AD (loperamide). I tend to stay away from street food but I had issues with restaurant food in Peru after that. It got to the point that I started cooking food myself in Peru as water may not be clean and they clean dishes with cold water. Now, I have to see the food cooked and must be hot to kill the bacteria.

Posts: 983There is a vaccine called Dukoral that will prevent cholera for 5 years but will prevent e. Coli infections for 3 months.
I have been taking it every 3 months for the last several years and seldom get sick even while eating in some pretty dodgy places.
That plus Cipro at first sign of any issues has helped me avoid any of the less pleasant issues discussed below.

Posts: 834I don't know what I had for 11 days earlier in the month, but it was definitely from restaurant food in Angeles. [CodeWord116] was nearly black or green and nearly all liquid. A very nasty infection.

Food safety is not a priority here at any resto or retailer, I'm not even certain any food health laws exist. Even if they do, I doubt they're enforced or, as is typical here, they're corrupt and are paid off for any violations. Business as usual. Cross contamination I think is quite common and if they didn't typically over cook / deep fry the majority their food, I think you'd see more people getting sick. Take a trip to a grocery store, like an SM or Metro, go to the fresh meat / poultry / fish section and you'll see that it's all displayed in open cases / bins; people use metal tongs to select their own cuts of meat, place them into thin plastic baggies and then hand them to the counter help for weighing / pricing. Customers often use the same tongs to select chicken, pork and / or beef and the same scales / butcher blocks are also commonly used for weighing / chopping the meats.
I've taken to using one of the plastic baggies to handle the tongs (I do occasionally see other people doing the same) and to carrying one of those small bottles of alcohol based hand disinfectant, which I use both before and after shopping / eating. Naturally I thoroughly wash all of the meat / fish I purchase (as well as any fresh produce) and cook my own food to recommend temps.
Despite the apparent lack of food safety regulation (s) / enforcement, this is the first time that I've gotten seriously ill from food here and I routinely eat at both street vendors. The last 10 years when I was working in the USA I used travel across the country extensively and I got "traveler's diarrhea" more often there then I did here; even got a few severe cases of E-Coli / Salmonella. My point is, it doesn't really matter where you eat, you always take a chance on picking up something and you can only really rely on the integrity of the resto and their desire to stay in business to maintain even a semblance of safe food handling practices. I wouldn't classify street vendors as being the sole culprit and I for one will continue to eat from them regardless of the country I'm in.

Just a few notes to get us back onto a more relevant topic.
Pony Tails continues to be an excellent afternoon choice. It has a nice setup, early hours, good looking and friendly women. I had a nice chat with the Scorpion girl the other day.
As usual, some guys throwing money from the upper levels at Crystal Palace. Oh wait, yesterday it was not only bills, but packages of hair care and other such things. One ended up in my drink.
On the same street is Tropix which I keep going back to because of some wonderful memories. LOL. It's seems pretty dead these days. Some old guy went up to the stage and placed a pile of coins in a row on the stage for all seven gals on the stage. Most walked up and took a pile. A few hung back with a "wtf" look on their faces, but eventually stepped forward and took their pile. The gals all made eye contact with the old gent and said thank you. I'm wondering if he thought this was more respectful and organized than the wild free for all when bills start falling from the rafters. Both might be somehow demeaning, but the free for all seems a bit less awkward than what I saw at Tropix.
The old Genesis, which became the oddly named Nemesis when Koreans took over, remains one of my favorites. A virtual army of young ladies who rotate on the stage quite regularly allowing you to get a good look at the entire lineup.
On thing I noticed is that Crystal Palace tends to employ the full bodied gals, while Nemesis has quite a few who are extremely petite.
Brass Knob. The stage is a bit high in this place. If you sit in the stools at the stage you'll be facing the dancer's knees. I'm afraid you'd end up with a stiff neck if you actually tried to make eye contact.
I don't know when it happened, but the street salesmen now start their sales pitch with "Cialis" rather than "viagra".

The one places I will vouch for taste wise is the Andok Litson roasted chicken places. The whole chicken is greasy as hell but at least its tender. Its very un Filipino like in its overall meatiness. I am sure its loaded with US Perdue style hormones to make it so. If I lived there I probably wouldn't touch it but its a good alternative to the mystery meats stewing in the steam plates. Also of the fast food places Mang Inasal specializing in Barbecued chicken is the only one I let the girls take me where I actually eat.
I end up at Jollibee a couple of times each trip because I learned that's the place they most want to go and its cheap so I get off lightly feeding the kids especially --its a treat for them. I don't order anything but they enjoy it. Usually they eat only 2/3 of the food they order.

Sure it's your own way not to eat any from street vendors. Food sensitivity could be different man to man. We will not push in someone what they cannot do.
So far you had seen in the cities in China, after dark what happening in open air eatery places. The food vendors appearing one by one; the foot covers with portable chairs and tables. The night darker and darker and the places get more crowded by the peoples for drinking and eating.
Since they are living alive and doing all the things what we do, then why not me?
If once I can get my own time, sure I love to join with them, sitting in a corner of the crowd with couple of drinks and some bites. I love to watch of the locals, the way of their talking, the moving and what they prefer to eat. I had taken a risk but in return I got a lot what I love.

Have to agree that street food from reputable vendors is the freshest, tastiest and most convenient. Never got sick from street food in all my years in RP. But I have gotten sick in well known restos with Hep A via seafood (squid). Avoid seafood (shellfish and squid) unless you know it is fresh!
