Balut is a 14 to 21-day old fertilized duck egg depending on how developed one wants the duck embryo is. Balut is a common street food that has its origins in China. Pateros is the balut-capital of the Philippines. Balut is boiled and then eaten with salt or some spiced vinegar. The way to eat balut: crack the shell, peel it bit by bit, slurp the soup (cooked amniotic fluid of the chick) before eating the egg and embryo. It is a favorite street food in the Philippines as it is cheap and nutritious. Another version for the less squimish is Penoy. It is an unfertized duck egg that is boiled. Depending on one's preference, it is just egg boiled with the consistency from runny to hard boiled - definitely no duck embryo on this one.

"So the location and property itself is really convenient. The SM mall is within walking distance and theres a convenience store just at ground level. The room itself was well stocked with modern amenities and wifi. However theres roaches, small ones but enough for my wife to find them in our clothing and such. When i brought up my concerns to the point of contact for the property he made a few valid points regarding the roaches, he clearly puts alot of effort into mainting a high level of...

"Close to everything, with a pool and basketball court - perfect for families. Has AC in each room too. Very responsive host!"

"This property is a scam and should be removed. I booked it and got debited right away. When we got to the unit I called the host so many times and never responded. We had to find another place to rest and spend more money. This listing should be removed and we should get our money back."

"Due to a major power loss that was conveyed and the property not having a generator I was moved to get a hotel instead. I was informed that the power was returned but I could not chance going without power so continued with my plans."

"Finding a place to stay for a month can be hard. Mostly are expensive and the response time is ridiculous. But with my family’s entire stay on her property, it was nothing but a pleasant experience that we will surely never forget. Hannah was very responsive in everything we needed and we loved the location, the surroundings and how the place is kept clean. Wifi was reliable and it exceeded our expectations. We will definitely go back and Stay there again, given the chance. Thanks again for a...

"Love the high floor location and the view is priceless! We had the best fireworks show view facing Rockwell and the entire manila sky lit up with tons of amazing firework to see. However, the unit can use some TLC. It’s not well maintained. They have old AC units that should’ve been replaced/removed. Also, we didn't get any instructions during check in so we didn’t have wifi for the first day. The lobby doesn’t let you use their wifi. Apparently, you have to be a gold member to use their wifi....
