MANILA -- More and more Filipinos are discovering the joy of street food, which was once frowned upon as "dirty." For foodies, these humble dishes are a window through which one could experience and see the real culture of a place.

Thankfully, local food enthusiasts no longer need to leave the country just to experience the world's most famous street food with the Philippines' hosting of the World Street Food Congress 2016, which opened Wednesday at the Bonifacio Global City.

Apart from the different talks and demos of world-renowned chefs, perhaps the most exciting part of this culinary event is the Street Food Jamboree, which runs until April 24. This is where you can experience all the fun and try all the food.

Located at the corner McKinley Parkway and 9th Avenue, the Street Food Jamboree is open to the public and has 25 different food stalls catering to all types of cravings. Entrance is free and dishes cost an average of P200 to P300.

Here are 10 stalls you must try at the World Street Food Jamboree.
