January 2025. Sta. Cruz, Manila. An overdue post from our last year’s Manila Chinatown Culinary and Heritage Tour hosted by Rence of Walk with Chan.
The group meets at at 9 AM along Sta. Cruz Plaza and took off on our breakfast stop at Kiampong Foodhaus, followed by a walk going to Ambos Mundos. By lunchtime, we spent it at Delicious Restaurant. We then proceed to the Divisoria area for a visit at the temple, and a refreshment stop at Ant Ice. Followed by another walk to Monte Land, then proceed to our final stop at Salazar Bakery in Ongpin.
What drink to try at Ant Ice Aling
Located Alvarado St., Ant Ice is making raves with their Chinese halo-halo, a refreshing twist of Filipino halo-halo without the milk/cream, instead the shaved ice dessert has tidbits of fresh fruit bites. - Milktea, fruit juice, starts at Php 95. The dessert store has Champoy (Php 150), Nougat candy (Php 150), Pure tablea chocolate, Dried sea cucumber (balatan in Filipino, harshen (Chinese), and peanuts (sung sung and honey peanut) per container at Php 150.
Ant Ice is under the Chinese franchise Aling. The young owner conceptualized the Chinese Halo-halo as a refreshing alternative to Pinoy’s creamy halo-halo.
Ant Ice Chinese halo-halo consists of watermelon, mango, peach, lyche, jelly, nata de coco, and sweetened syrup. They also have halo-halo milktea, both offered at Php 160 per order. The usual milktea flavor with pearls/grass jelly at Php 95. For healthier options, they offer Calamansi Crystals, Honey Crystals, all the same price of Php 95.
For snacks, you can try their dim sum, chicken cutlet/wings/poppers at a very affordable price.
