You can also eat at most of the markets in the Philippines. There are these small closed restaurants, but often they are just open stalls similar to the so-called carinderias. Cooking here is usually done on site on gas stoves and rarely still on an open wood fire.

The hungry market visitor also chooses his dishes here by ‘pot peeking’. We were at the public market in Dumaguete in one of the closed Carinderias.

Choose, carry to the table, also the staff gladly brings the food to the table, enjoy it and pay at the end at the counter.
