Comments on: The Market in the Morning (An Essay in Photos) http://dessertcomesfirst.com/archives/465 An obsession with dessert and other unabashed opinions of a food writer Sat, 13 Mar 2010 16:21:32 +0800 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.9.1 hourly 1 By: Edita http://dessertcomesfirst.com/archives/465/comment-page-1#comment-18476 Edita Thu, 30 Jul 2009 05:32:42 +0000 http://www.dessertcomesfirst.com/?p=465#comment-18476 I grew up in Guadalupe and these pictures make me proud, not only of being a Guadalupenan but also for having such rich and exciting culture. Look at the photos: they are real, they are colorful. when I was a little girl, I used to go to the place where the market is now located, and wait with my grandma for the delivery of tuba (coconut wine). We carried the 5 gallon tuba (walking), to Jacinto St. (sa Kanto ng Guadalupe Nuevo), where my grandma operates a tubaan. We used to have a store sa talipapa sa malapit sa kanto (I used to mangoes from Divisoria).My grandpa owned a barber shop and my father owned a tailoring shop sa kanto ng Guadalupe. Thanks for posting the pictures; they are really unique to our culture. They bring back good memories.

Groceries offers no pressure, there's no unpleasant smell, or any other things that makes me not visit a market place. I hate sticky and dirty place. Anyway, thanks for posting I enjoyed reading your post and the pictueres are nice. I try to go there some other time. -krisha- I prefer to go to the groceries than in the market place in buying foods or my other needs.

You made a lot of effort to put this together. It's wonderful to see how the market looks like nowadays. I have lived here in US and I have travelled to most part of the states in this country. I have never seen this site in any of their market or grocery. I never been home since 1987 hopefully to come home this year. I am amazed how our people have really taken so much care and love for their source of living. I am very proud of their artistic way of making their "tinda" more pleasing to the eye. You should continue writing more and continue your photography you can send them to me and I would love to read them. I hope Lori liked your pictures.

I always wanted to go there but i usually end up at Farmer's market or at the Salcedo "Saturday Only" Market. Maybe i'll try to drop by and do my shopping there. thanks! love love it! hello lori!

Inspite of the abundance of pinoy groceries here in LA, nothing really beats the palengkes in the Phils. I miss the fresh seafood and of course our local mangoes!!! The top foods to eat when I go back to the Phils? Inihaw na pusit, kinilaw na tanigue and manggang hilaw!!! Thank you so much for the fond memories you brought back. I even showed your post to my korean husband... Your post about the palengkes would make any overseas Pinoy homesick.
