Dynamite Roll and Potato Roll Craze!!!

When you hear the name "Dynamite Roll", what comes into your mind? Is it a Japanese food? Is it some kind of a sushi with a spicy sauce? Then your answer is right! BUT, when it comes to UST (University of Santo Tomas), a different dynamite roll will be served to you.

(It's blurry because it's a busy street)

This is the dynamite roll, UST's newest snack!!!

It is made with chili peppers (the green long ones that are not so spicy) but the seeds are taken out so it will not be too spicy, replaced the seeds with ground pork and bacon! Then it will be wrapped in a Lumpia wrapper or spring roll wrapper. Deep fried it until golden brown.

Then a thick layer of mayonnaise and cheese sauce will be drizzled on top of those delicious dynamite rolls. Voila!!!! A perfect snack. Dynamite rolls are common in UST but I recommend that you go to this particular store (Rosarito Street Corner Dapitan Street, in front of UST). A dynamite roll would cost you about 12 pesos but you couldn't just eat one. I usually order 2 rolls because 1 isn't enough.

Next stop: Potato Rolls

When you type the words "Potato Rolls" in Google, results will show a type of bread that has potato incorporated in it. But the one I'm talking about is this.....

AAAHHHHH!!!! POTATO ROLLS!!!! Just merely thinking of it makes me drool!!!!

How do you make one of these delicious creations? Well, basically it's easy. It's just mashed potatoes wrapped in a Lumpia wrapper or spring roll wrapper then deep fried until golden brown. Then drizzled with mayonnaise and cheese sauce. It's that easy. What makes it unique is the taste ... and maybe their concept. It's quite delicious, and heavy in the stomach. One roll will satisfy your craving and hunger. When I'm on-the-go, too busy to sit down and eat, I usually go for these babies because primarily it's cheap. A roll would cost you 15 pesos. Secondarily because it satisfies my hunger.

A friend of mine taught me this place, there are lots of stalls in Dapitan that would offer you dynamite and potato rolls, but this place truly delivers the best (so far). I don't know the name of the store, because the sign says that they're selling hamburgers but they're not.

If you want to taste these snacks, just go to UST, Dapitan Street, Then Rosarito Street (if you don't know that street just ask.. or if not, just look for a sea of people eating this stuff).

Dynamite Rolls and Potato Rolls.... Another Excuse For You To Eat A LOT!!!
