Английская Википедия:Carinderia
Carinderia (sometimes spelled as Karinderya) is a common type of eatery in the Philippines that serves affordable and locally-inspired dishes.[1] These food establishments, also known as turo-turo (meaning "point-point" in Filipino),[2] play a significant role in Filipino cuisine and provide a convenient and economical dining option for people from all walks of life.
Carinderias are known for their affordability, making them accessible to a wide range of customers, from students and office workers to taxi drivers and construction workers. The low cost of meals is one of the main reasons why carinderias are popular among Filipinos.
History and evolution
The concept of the carinderia can be traced back to the early 1800s when it emerged as a native food shop and a convenient stop for travelers. Prior to 1764, there was no specific Filipino term to describe a commercial establishment selling cooked food. However, with the growth of busy crossroads, carinderias developed into a quick food service option for locals and travelers in need of sustenance. Over time, carinderias have adapted and evolved to meet the needs and preferences of Filipinos. Today, variations of carinderias can be found, including traveling carinderias and high-class carinderias, each offering its own unique dining experience and menu options.[3]
Influence of British Sepoys
According to Filipino food historian Felice Prudente-Sta. Maria, carinderias and "karihans" (a term used interchangeably with carinderias) in the Philippines were influenced by the presence of British Sepoys. British Sepoys were Indian natives who deserted British General William Draper's fleet around 1764 during the British occupation of Manila. These Sepoys integrated into the local community, marrying Filipina wives and settling in towns such as Taytay and Cainta, which were located along the Maytime Pilgrimage route to Antipolo Church.[3][4]
Role in pilgrimage routes and tourism
Carinderias played a crucial role in providing sustenance to travelers and pilgrims along pilgrimage routes. As tourist transportation options emerged, such as the inauguration of the Philippine railway in 1892, towns like Cainta and Taytay became important stops for pilgrims embarking on the trek to the Antipolo town shrine. These towns witnessed an increase in the number of carinderias, offering a diverse menu that often included dishes like curry. The term "carinderia" has been linked by Spanish authority Wenceslao E. Retana to the Tagalog word for curry, "kari," which is also the root word for the native dish called Kare-kare.[3][4]
Cuisine
Carinderias offer a wide range of Filipino dishes, including traditional home-cooked meals and popular local favorites. The menu can vary from day to day, depending on the availability of ingredients and the cook's expertise. Common offerings may include adobo (marinated meat stew), sinigang (sour soup), tinola (chicken stew), kare-kare (oxtail stew in peanut sauce), and a variety of vegetable and seafood dishes. Rice, the staple food of Filipinos, is usually included or available as a side dish.
Some carinderias may display raw meats, such as chicken neck, chicken livers, chicken gizzards, strips of marinated pork or chicken meat, pork belly or other foods, which the customer can purchase and they will grill the meat over charcoal while the customer waits. They are typically basted in some type of sauce. The raw food are usually displayed and served on a bamboo stick, which makes the handling easier.
