As you can see, the plantains are sliced to form a fan-like shape, dipped in a thick batter, then dunked into boiling hot oil โ™จ๏ธ and then served up in a bag with some sugar. Imagine them though with a dollop of cream, honey and some cinnamon sprinkled on top ๐Ÿ˜‹ Heaven! . . . #pinaypay #pinaypaysaging #filipino #filipinofood #cebu #cebucity #banana #bananafritters #dessert #streetfood #food #pinoy #pinoyfood #philippines #eat #eatsogood #eats #eatsogoodinthephilippines #itsmorefuninthephilippines #thebureauasia #experiences #picoftheday #instagood #yum #yummy #wheretoeatCebu #wheretotravelPhilippines #plantains #foodporn
