For me it’s the Fresh Lumpia of POLLAND in Mayon Street Quezon City, you will seldom see it because it literally runs out in the afternoon because of its awesome taste! Chinese and Filipino patrons adore it… I only take out the cilantro because I hate that part =)

@wysgal – this brings back memories! Same for me since high school, except I usually have the strawberry sundae in Mcdo, too bad they don’t have it anymore :’(

I love the Goldilock’s brownies. But my fave cheapskate snack is warm, soft monay from UP Diliman (it’s in boxes on bikes driven by the manongs with horns to catch the students’ attention). It used to be only 5 pesos for a large piece (about 6-7 inches diameter circle) and can be ordered with a slice of Kraft cheese (+ 2 pesos).

My dad is a Goldilocks Polvoron addict. Never a day in the house without polvoron. I’m now married and live at another house. When I go home to visit, his pabaon will be a bag (or box) of Goldilocks polvoron.

My own cheap eat would be cloud9.mmm…

i’m a cheap date- a McDo cheeseburger meal will keep me smiling for 6 hours.

I only discovered the goldilocks brownies recently. And yes, THEY ARE GOOD! Try storing them in the ref for a couple of days. They turn out a bit hard, but still gooooooey!

haha..my cheap eats escape would have to be Cakes & Bakes at Cherry, and my all time fave, Happy Cream Puff in Makati. Hehe.

And a plain misua soup (P40) and fresh lumpia (P70) at Little Store.
