It’s official. Mercato Centrale, the newest weekend market to hit Manila has recently become an all day and all night food haunt with the launch of Midnight Mercato, a late-night eating spot open from 10 p.m. to 3 a.m.. The newly-opened after-hours food bazaar was inspired by Asian night markets and hawker centers and is perfect for when you’re craving post-clubbing chow, taking a “lunch” break from your night shift, or just looking for a place to food trip. Home-style meals, gourmet dishes, organic products, and Pinoy street food fare all under one roof? That's our idea of a food haven. Here, SPOT.ph lists the best stalls to check out.
All-Natural Jams at Fresh Start Organics
Made from certified organic fruits and vegetables, these bottles of jam make the perfect take-home snack. This all-organic stall sells unique flavors like banana, calamansi, dalandan, jackfruit, passion fruit, pineapple, squash and bignay jelly. The banana jam (P195), which is sweetened with muscovado sugar, is best eaten with salty crackers—a perfect pairing and balance of flavors. They also have coffee and personal care products for sale.

Twister Potatoes from Chips to Go
Picture this: one whole potato, sliced, skewered and then deep-fried. Doesn’t it make eating potato chips more convenient and fun? No more messy, cheesy fingers and hands full of crumbs. Take your pick from three flavors: cheese, barbecue, and sour cream. Or, choose to have the taters plain and simple.
