Mr. Taho
In the Philippines, we say "ta-ho", referring to a sweet snack made with bean curd, caramelized sugar, and tapioca balls. It is a very popular street food and vendors were a common sight even on city streets. Carrying two aluminum containers suspended on a wooden rod, having taho for an afternoon snack was something my brothers, cousins and I often enjoyed.

Finally someone who knows about cuisine from the Philippines! Many of my stories lose their punch when I refer back to a culturally specific dishes and no one knows what I'm talking about.
Anyways, your illustration is delightful as always and very cute.
when i visited there for the first time 10 years ago... i remembered taho, halo-halo and balut vendors. all but one were pleasurable experiences :)
Heheh...that's great robert! Yes, I think you're talking about balut right? hehee...
This snack seems delicious, and your illustration is beautiful, with many souvenirs.
A meal, with his flavours, is often a great way to remember good moments ;o)
