I was expecting the dragon fruits from Burgos, Ilocos Norte but what greeted me were the ones imported from Thailand. Too expensive. So I went around . There were oranges, both the Kalinga green ones and the orange Sagada. I got three of the latter. Then I saw some persimmons that were locally grown. Very delicate as these were already ripe, I got three. While paying, I saw this strange little fruit that they labelled as Spanish tomato. Said to be sweet and sour, I got two.
I passed by some stalls selling strawberries guyabanos. Then just beside the bananas are Korean pears, big, green and just at P25 each. Got curious that I again got two. Within fifteen more minutes, I got a bunch of sweet passion fruit, a kilo of Cambodian atis (sugar apple), and to top these, I got tempted with the pomegranates that I just have to have some.
I’m all set to going back to Manila.
nice…looks like you’re coming home with quite a bunch. healthy!

yup! and still eating fruits today. hehehe
sugarapple looks like an american sugarapple (american atis-with pinkish covering), in terms of size. We had a tree (atis) before, when I was a kid.
ganahan kaayo ko ug atis bai. but what we usually have is better than this one.
oh my gulay, talagang hinahabol ako ng baguio! ilang araw na puro baguio na lang nakikita ko sa facebook, sa jeep, sa news at blogs! looks like i need to go back 🙂
you should bai 🙂
The last time I saw a roster of fruits lined up like that was when I was a child with relative kids in my lola’s garden playing pretend market and bus drivers.
