I remember I and my cousin used to visit the Carbon market for lunch since it was really just across the street of the school we went to ...the USJR. We would buy the rice packed in the palm leaves and we would eat the famous chorizo or tocino of Cebu, all cooked and ready for lunch. The most that I always visited were the stores that sell handicrafts, bayong, baskets and natural fiber made boxes, etc... I was born in Banawa, Guadalupe but my parents went to Manila when I was a baby and grew up there. My Dad was assigned to build the Pink Sister Monastery in `71, I had to change school and that was how I landed at USJR for the 4th year HS. "Nagkanga kanga ko" speaking in Cebuano because I understand the dialect but it was hard to speak it. All in all, it was one of the most hilarious and really fun times I had to have experienced living there . Fond memories indeed! Thank you for sharing this market.
