Any tourist should never leave Cebu without bringing a pack of Danggit! The Danggit or Rabbitfish is a well-known fish delicacy that’s salted, sun-dried, and split-open. It’s a popular breakfast viand and is best paired with a sunny side up egg and ‘sinangag’ or garlic rice. Your sense of smell might need a little adjusting with the dried first at first, especially when you just bought them. But once you cook them, you can’t help but salivate at its tempting aroma.

Put-put / Kutchinta
There are several delicacies in Cebu and put-put is one of my favorite.

It looks simple yet very palatable and I’m sure you’ll never get enough of it too.
Usual Price: P5.00- P15.00 each
