"Tuslob Buwa" - Cebu's rising exotic food fever

Here is the stuff that has been hitting the social media sites of our # Cebuano netizens recently, something that we can say is, truly from Cebu, the "

Yep I am very sure one of your more than 10 or a thousand friends had posted something about "Tuslob buwa  ", or even already made ​​a # tuslobbuwaexperience, And so what really is this stuff?

The first time I heard about this was when i was still a reporter of the oldest newspaper in Cebu,  The Freeman . I was actually able to pass thru the site in barangay Pasil, where the actual prolapsed uterus being flocked tuslob thingy was like there was a celebration!

Knowing Barangay Pasil, are priority is famous for its exotic dishes other "linarang" and etcetera, you see different kinds of people, mostly shirtless, others trisikad, jeepney drivers, students and also those executives looking hunks, gather around one mighty big couldron/pan or in the dialect, kaha, kawa, kalaha.

You see them opening up a puso (hanging rice) and then just dip a portion of it into the cauldron. The boiling mixture in the kawa include beef or pig's brains, internal organs and other's insides and dunno .. whatsoever the cook can think off  I guess, .. but it was so yummy!

And so here I am years later and then suddenly very near my  Infocen Cebu Philippine Information Agency office in Gorordo, a quite busy and vibrant sight always catches my attention, daytime and early evening.

I just thought these were just hanging out with young people who are tattoo enthusiasts, as the place is beside the  Inkin Ian Tattoos of Ian Cabrido .. but then I saw small couldrons ... and so it was really tuslob Adv.

I went there for snacks 4:30 pm, since after 6pm I know its gonna be very busy and crowded there.

I just asked how much and they said one whole set is P99. 

The P99 Includes this 

The Set (lr) minced onions, pork bits, hipon (salty shrimp), a bowl of pig's brain mixture and the 12 pieces of puso/ hanging rice .. and since I like spicy, some chili powder.

Then we were ushered to the table with a small butane run burner with the small pan / couldron or kawa.

You just have to mix one after the other in exact order and then wait until it boils and dip yourself away!

How does it tastes? It is very delicious! Indeed you can consume almost all the 12 pieces puso! It takes like marinated bone marrow or something ....

Here are some of the pics of the other tables ... In just five minutes the place was really packed! You can see some of them with beers and juices ...

Here you can see mostly students from different schools and then workers, office personnel, policemen ....  

But unlike Pasil, this one here is cleaner since you are given Separate couldrons.  

But the bigger BUT is of course, health, having .. Often this MIGHT lead to a sudden eruption gall bladder hehehe specially for those with gall stones ... so beware!

And one reminder, please do not take the kawas with you ... the tattooed bouncers are very hospitable.

So that's the latest exotic sizzle here in # Cebu.
