Steph Curry gets sweet Manila welcome, tries ‘halo-halo’

It’s always been customary for Filipinos to treat their visitors to their local food and there is nothing more quintessential than a bowl, or two, of halo-halo.

The cold sweet treat composed of shaved ice, milk, jelly, ice cream, purple yam, and various sweetened fruits is a dessert loved by many— even NBA superstar Stephen Curry.

Halo-halo was served to Curry after he finished his workout Friday at Shangri-La in Bonifacio Global City before his scheduled press conference.

“I have a sweet tooth, and I like it a lot,” said the NBA champion

Curry is in the Philippines as part of his UnderArmour tour, where he is also launching a new colorway of Curry 5s in bright yellow, which he wore on Friday.

“This is the best post workout meal,” said Curry.
