Taking a break from the action and drama in <a href="https://ent.abs-cbn.com/batangquiapo">FPJ’s Batang Quiapo</a>, actress Ivana Alawi recently flew to Bangkok, Thailand with her friends, wherein they tried some of the popular street food and exotic food.She was basically there for an endorsement shoot, but then decided to also take it as an opportunity for her to bond with her friends, just like what they did during their fun getaway in Baguio City in November 2022.<div><iframe allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" allowfullscreen="" frameBorder="0" height="387" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/SUPDAWQSl_A" title="STREET FOOD + EXOTIC FOOD IN BANGKOK! | IVANA ALAWI" width="688"></iframe></div>Their first stop was at a Michelin-starred humble eatery that serves authentic Thai cuisine, wherein they had to lineup for eight hours according to them. They feasted on the best-seller giant crab omelet, tom yum soup, drunken noodle, and crispy rice vermicelli, which were all okay for Ivana, but not perfect for her palate. Thus, she rated it 8 over 10. They spent 20,950 baht (or P32,155) for everything that they ordered.After filling their tummies with good, authentic Thai dishes, they headed to the Khaosan Road to look for street foods and shop for fashion pieces.The ultimate exotic food trip of Ivana and her friends began as soon as they arrived at the Jodd Fairs Night Market. They had servings of coconut ice cream, durian, tanghulu or candied strawberries, goong ten or jumping shrimp salad, crepe roll, freeze dried fruits, live squid shot, hon mhai or deep-fried silkworms, fried scorpions, takatanor grasshoppers, and chingrit or crickets.With how they found it challenging to eat the Thai version of pika-pika because of how they looked and tasted, the Kapamilya actress jested that it’s going to be the first time that she and her bestie Kim would fight in the long time that they’ve been friends. She also jokingly apologized to her Mama Fatima for everything that they had done during that food trip.When asked if there’s a possibility for her to be in a relationship with a Thai, she said that there isn’t because they will surely have communication problems.Catch Ivana as Bubbles in <a href="https://ent.abs-cbn.com/batangquiapo">FPJ’s Batang Quiapo</a>, weeknights after TV Patrol, on <a href="https://ent.abs-cbn.com/articles-news/kapamilya-channel-livestream-12685">Kapamilya</a><a href="https://ent.abs-cbn.com/articles-news/kapamilya-channel-livestream-12685"> Channel</a>, <a href="https://ent.abs-cbn.com/articles-news/kapamilya-channel-livestream-12685">Kapamilya Online Live</a>, and A2Z.
