Balut is a 14 to 21-day old fertilized duck egg depending on how developed one wants the duck embryo is. Balut is a common street food that has its origins in China. Pateros is the balut-capital of the Philippines. Balut is boiled and then eaten with salt or some spiced vinegar. The way to eat balut: crack the shell, peel it bit by bit, slurp the soup (cooked amniotic fluid of the chick) before eating the egg and embryo. It is a favorite street food in the Philippines as it is cheap and nutritious. Another version for the less squimish is Penoy. It is an unfertized duck egg that is boiled. Depending on one's preference, it is just egg boiled with the consistency from runny to hard boiled - definitely no duck embryo on this one.

"Lauren’s Crib was a cute and cozy studio. The room was complete with a TV, microwave, AC, Wi-Fi and fan. The host was also wonderful with communication and provided clear and timely check in instructions. The area itself seemed quite safe. There were security guards who let us in. The building was quiet and peaceful. Also the location seemed convenient as it was right next to a SM Hypermarket. My only issues were the leaking sinks and the poor bathroom design. There was no separation between the...

"Condo was well kept. Basic needs are available including wifi, plates and utensils. Host was responsive even if it was a last-minute booking. Although there was a bit of delay in the pool registration, host was able to resolve right away. Check-in registration and parking pre-registration was a breeze. Host even allowed us to get in the unit a bit earlier. There were some board games and stuff that entertained us during our quick stop to this place as our original travel plans got redirected...
