79 Jaro and Jackfruit Turon

One of the drivers suggested that I check out the Jaro Market and Plaza. So one sunny morning with about 42 Degree Celsius I made my way to this Part of Iloilo.

I rushed from shadow to shadow. There is a local market nearby with fresh fish laying in the sun and meat being butchered in front of your eyes. My mind was set on finding a coffee. Well, I went early so most coffee shops were closed.

Getting a bit peckish I found a supermarket where they sold deep-fried dough with jackfruit inside called turon langka. It is surprisingly hearty and less sweet than you might think. It was huge and I had trouble finishing it.
