Read on to know where to get the best snacks in Metro Manila for food on the go or places to get pasalubong for your loved ones!
Poco Deli
Similar to delicatessens in America, Poco Deli should be your go-to spot for cured meats in sandwiches. We recommend trying the NY wagyu pastrami that’s based on the world-famous Katz Deli. The US steak sandwich, kielbasa sandwich, and wagyu corned beef are also great for food on the go!
The Barbarians Cheesesteak
If you’re a fan of anything cheesy, go to Barbarian’s Cheesesteak for different cheesy sandwiches, burgers, and more! We recommend trying the pepper mushroom steak, jalapeno steak, the classic barbarian sandwich, and many more.
