The Tofu Store


Vicky usually goes to the Tofu Store along J. Abad Santos St. in Little Baguio, San Juan, in order to buy freshly made tokwa, a bean curd cake that she cuts uip, fries and dips into an insanely addicting mix of soy sauce, sugar, crushed garlic and a little water.  This time, she came back with some Tofu Chips (in various flavors like cheese, BBQ and sour cream).  Now, compared to your off-the-shelf chicherya (junk food), this invention is packed with a lot of protein, and Monique just loves the taste.  I, however, have a mixed reaction--the crunch was just right, but why is it tinged with sweetness?  I don't know if that's inherent in the tofu, or if some sugar was added.  Anyway, the packs are less than P50 each--go ahead, try it and be the judge!
