Exotic Filipino Food Trip in Batangas! 🤩 | PABORITO in Lipa 

The first one was the classic and original, it has a slimy texture that's why toyo and calamansi goes well with the dish. the condiments also affects the consistency of the lomi since here in Lipa they mostly use cassava starch instead of flour or corn starch as thickening agents. Here in Lipa, every area has their taste of lomi. The last one you tried (Liam's) I can say develop the taste and consistency of the broth for food vloggers and others who tries lomi for the first time in lipa. Also a must try here in Lipa that you really missed is the bibingka of the D Lovers line just near the tustadong guisado you've tried.

I really love how Jessica's editor presents her videos in a way na ang catchy panuorin!! Keep it up, team!!! You deserve 2 million subscribers na❤

You came to the right places for lomi. Lipa Panciteria is where the lomi originated so basically you experienced eating the most authentic lomi. And for Liam's it is also my best choice of lomi anywhere in Batangas, it's just different the way you have eaten it. There is a certain way that Batanguenos eat lomi and we know how to enjoy it. You really need to put the toyomansi and dip in while the lomi is hot, in that way you can enjoy eating lomi. I can recommend that next time you visit Batangas, try to visit Batangas City there are a lot of good places for lomi and pansit guisado. There is this one place in Bryg. Sta. RIta Karsada, Batangas City who have one of the best pansit guisado in Batangas. It is called "Kampo Gwapo"'. You won't be disappointed.

Arthur's Bbq, Hapag Filipino, Aling Nene's Mami and Siopao, Tessie's Goto and Bulalo, Spice Bar and Bistro, Fat Grill, Conrado's all day breakfast, Dulcissima Bakeshop, Ramen Co and more... So much missed potential from Lipa, but hope you enjoyed your stay here Jessica!

In Batangas. The known foods are Bulalo. Tawilis. Tulingan. Lomi. Also try the ensaymada of Panaderia Pantoja. But still bulalo is a delicious dish. Try it at Rose and Grace. Or in Mahogany Market in Tagaytay which is part of Cavite. If you also want to explore more of Batangas and eat in different places. Try to contact the famous Batangueña vlogger Queenee Mercado. You will not only visit I guess known places in Batangas. Eat authentic Batangueño food. But also learn how to speak in their Batangueño/Batangueña accent. Kapeng Barako is the best in Batangas. Also try the Bagoong Balayan and tulingan. ❤

Being a Batangueño myself, I noticed a few things specially the way the Lomi was eaten. I kinda cringe a bit cause you can't really enjoy and max out the whole experience without eating Batangas Lomi the way it should be eaten ( together with toyomansi , sili, sibuyas and garlic) . Bulalo, calderetang batangas, pupor, the kakanin's , and many more. I wish Jessica tried these as well . I expected for her to have atleast one Paborito but can't blame her. Everybody has their own preference when it comes to food. Hope she comes back and explore Batangas a bit more, cause the town's got so much more to offer. 😊

taga-lipa po ako and yes, pumunta po kayo sa right places to eat lomi!! :))) don’t worry jessica haha I also view lomi as what you verdict it to be kasi nothing special talaga ang lomi pero we like it more with the sawsawan combination of toyo+calamansi+sibuyas+sili. siguro, that is what made it special to us, lipeños. we never eat lomi plain hehe. personally tho, mas like ko ang chami than lomi kasi mas may flavor and gulay skl haha. anw, thank you for visiting our municipality 🫶

the employees in the second place 😭😭😭 I’m crying theyre so funny

Authentic Batangas dishes are really plain and simple such as Sinaing na tulingan or other native fishes, Lomi and Goto. Even their vegetables are cooked that way such as bulanglang, kibal, etc. They don't have the culinary flare of the other provinces such as Pampanga and Iloilo. But they love it that way - plain and simple, not too much fuss, which is a reflection of the people, not too flashy and always direct to the point. Most of the known food places are not serving original Batangas cuisine and came from Manila and other provinces, even foreign dishes such as Chinese, Japanese, Korean and western dishes are the go to places nowadays.

Gotta love the jelly-ish slimy texture of Batangas Lomi. Unbeatable texture and almost sinful with the mouthfeel. We replicate that at home using tapioca/cassava or potato starch as cornstarch does not make it slippy (almost chewy if that is possible) slimy. Also handmade miki noodles is quite interesting to make; I think Batangas nailed it, but there are other good places outside that can do it well too. It's an alkalised process noodle, so it's kinda closer to ramen noodles than say, pancit canton noodles. It has this sort of 'lihiya'/lye taste that is signature for alkaline noodles and it has a distinct chew, but some tend to overdo it that the noodles kinda taste 'soapy' due to probably excess alkali or insufficient rinsing of the noodles. XD Also pork brain might be jarring at first glance, but it is really unctuous and tastes indulgent you might feel the high blood pressure from miles away hahaha. I quite like it in dinakdakan, an a dish from north of the Philippines; best way I could describe it is it's as if sisig and kilawin had a lovechild. Pork mask, ears, jowls and snout grilled and coarsely chopped, then seasoned with cane vinegar, red onions/shallots, garlic, ginger, peppercorns and bay, and sometimes tossed with mayonnaise nowadays (as a stand-in for pork brain which is traditional). Caramel (kinda like a really dark soy sauce, but it's mostly caramelised sugars than soy) has that distinct deep, almost close to burnt flavour that is used in some Chinese cookery. Lee Kum Kee has that cooking caramel that could be similar to the one Tustado ni Ka Rico uses. Would have recommended Goto Batangas (tripe/intestines in a soup - very sinful haha, but great as a pre- or post-hangover dish lol). Kinda missing the days when the family goes to Batangas for a bit of vacation. XD Great video btw. Keep it up!

Lipa has grown exponentially throughout the years. Food has become more and more diverse with introduction to new cultures. Japanese, Indian, Korean, American, you name it. I would recommend bread/pastries and coffee here. Tons of places as such has been popping all over the place. There used to be a night market in palengke before where you can binge eat tho. Thelomi, chami, etc. is never eaten as is. The sauce is not a side but part of the dish. Trust me, there are MANY good places in lipa for food. Maybe you can collab with the legend kuya Jayzar Recinto next time as you go back to Lipa.

My dear Jessica - From Batangas here, i wish they taught you that Batangueno's cannot eat their lomi without these toyomansi combo/ Most of the lomis are bland/sakto lang sa taste kaya nandun yung mga toyomansi combo na yun. I believe when it comes to lomi or any of those noodle dishes you ate , you have the full control kung gaano mo kagusto yung saltiness ng overall dish. I wish they also recommended Kulawo / Gotong Batangas. And if ever Lomi lang din naman pag uusapan, i'd recommend the Corcolon Lomi - loaded pero hindi nakakaumay. The gimmicks of these newly built Lomi Houses is that they offer these crazy loaded lomi with lots of toppings pero hindi naman masarap overall. But it's different with Corcolon Lomi - gracious sila sa servings at sulit na sulit. Since you're in LIPA, sana nakapunta ka na rin sa Padre Garcia which is the Cattle Capital of the Philippines . Try the papaitan. Or if you have time go to Talisay Batangas where i live. I suggest going to Milan's and try the Sinigang na Maliputo and Crispy Tawilis (if it's in season) Batangas is not just about lomi and kapeng barako. Di lang kayo nakaswerte sa mga nainterview kasi yun at yung lang nairecommend nila.

The transitions are now way better compares to before wherein after the interviews it go straight to the food which made more sense compare to all interviews, then food. This called, “Adjustment” in business. I like that you corporate it in your vlogs. Good job to the editor and the whole team! 👏

Naalala ko tuloy ung niluto mong lomi na Tiffany brand ung noodles. Heheheh. Bicol foods Naman next, Jess😊

Hi Jessica, if you want different meal in Batangas that's saturated with lomi, try their "kapeng barako" with adobo sa dilaw. Yes, yellow adobo. There are many more like the gotong Batangas, sinaing na Tulingan (steamed tuna fish) and there's this exotic dish which is called "Taghilaw" but I know you don't go with animal innards so you may skip this but worth a try. Salamat!

Hi Jessica, I really like your paborito series. I just wish you improve on approaching people and phrasing your questions better so you can get better answers from people. More paborito episodes to come!

You can also try Gotong Batangas and kapeng Barako next time. 😊

We want to see Lia without H in paborito

Asking the establishment na "Pweding mag vlog" Wooahh HIGH RESPECT TO JESSICA AND THE CREW❤

the city of rizz ..lipa. nag i love you si kuya agad. hahaha

mali ka lang ng mga natanungan Jessica! HAHAHAHA but I'm glad you enjoyed all of it!

We love your honesty Jessica! Kudos to the team! Galing tlaga ng edit! ❤

I'm binge watching your vlogs!!! My friend recommends your channel and now it's my go-to vlog when I'm about to eat something (I love watching vlogs while eating haha) Kudos to the whole team! Stay safe!! 🥰

As someone from Batangas, i suggest you go to small town instead of Cities. Batangas have so much to offer not just Lomi. Like Champayne (goat dish) kalamay na mais (very rare now) and a lot more. Lipa is already like a modernised place but if you're looking for some AUTHENTIC AND UNIQUE Batangas feels, go to small towns. They have the bestest food ever.

Lipa has the very commercialized version of Batangas favorites. It really caters to city people palates. Wish you could have tried Batangas goto and sinaing na isda for a very authentic Batangas experience.

Loved this video!!! I hope Jessica could come to other parts of PH too for Paborito 😢😢 we have Native Chicken Surol here in Camiguin that Im sure she’ll love! And many more around here down in Mindanao ❤

Love how jessica is really open to tasting more crazy unique filipino dishes! Also lord have mercy on her tastebuds after the makasalanan dishes 😭🙏

OMGG! I SAW YOU WHILE YOU WERE EATING AT THE PANCITERIA BUT I GOT TOO SHY TO SAY HI 😭 i'm currently studying at the same La Salle where you asked around! true Lasallian talaga! HAHAHAHA

OH my gosh!!! ❤ I love lomi! It’s my fav food in the Philippines am so happy to see Jessica try it. Love your videos 💗

im not from batanggas, but everytime na nagbabakasyon kami jan LOMI and Chami talaga hinahanap hanap ko. i think patok sya sa local tourist like me.

1st time ko mapanood. Ang galing nang vlog na to, di sumasabay dahil lang sa hype. Parang ramdam ko pang lasa nya since mahilig din siya sa pinoy food. Worth it panoorin lalo na kung pupunta ka sa lugar na gusto ma sulit specially sa local known food nila. 👌 subscribed ❤️✅😊

You should also try the lomi here in "Kakang Emong's Place here in Tinga Itaas, Batangas City. It is so good and dinadayo talaga ng madaming tao and some influencers din. sending love and support from batangas, city

JESSICA IM 100% BATANGUEÑO & IM ONE OF THOSE SUBSCRIBER THAT SUPPORT YOU SINCE YOU MADE MURAL PAINTING IN STA ROSA, THEY R NOT RECOMMENDED BEST COFFEE SHOPS BECAUSE THE QUESTION OF YOURS IS "WHAT IS THE BEST FOOD PLACE" . BTW HERE IN BATANGAS TRY & ASK ABOUT THE BEST COFFEE HERE, ALSO TRY TAPSILOG HERE IN BATANGAS, PARES FOOD ALSO, ELLA'S PIZZA & THE HIGHEST PRICE BATANGAS PIZZA(SPECIAL). ENJOY THERE IN LIPA, I LIVE THERE BEFORE IN THAT CITY & IT WAS MUCH COLDER THERE THAN THE BATANGAS MAIN CITY & MUCH BEAUTIFUL ALSO. THE BATANGAS MAIN CITY WAS NOT THAT BEAUTIFUL ANYMORE WHEN EVENING COMES BECAUSE OF THE BATS HANGING AROUND AT THE WIRES AT THE TOP OF THE STREETS, THEY MAKE THE BATANGAS CITY MAIN DIRTY AT NIGHTS 7-9PM. ALSO LIPA MALLS & GROCERY MALL(South Supermsrket) ARE GREAT. Try Kerrimo it's like Potato Corner there & also Keogi Foods Stalls

Hi Jessica. I'm a local of Lipa Batangas. You missed so much from Lipa, please come back and visit the following: -- Kaiju -- Ijo Bakery -- Ramen Co -- Aling Nene's Mami and Siopao -- D' Lover's Bibingka

You missed Darwin's and/or Chibong's. They basically serve all the food that you tried but way better IMO. Can't believe that no one recommended Gotong Batangas though. 😂

Uhm maam jessica if you want the authentic CHAMI. I recommend that you go to Lucena City. We celebrate chami festival there during May. Lucena City, Quezon Province. Have the original Chami there. Can't wait to see you there ☺️

Im early! Also jessica ilysm you are so kind and so humorous. I love your videos they always make me smile💖💖

Pleass come to Bulacannnnnnnnn!!!!!

Hi Jessica. I always watched your video from your high school days. Hopefully, matour mo rin kami sa Paborito Series - Visayas edition. Mga masasarap na pagkain sa Visayas or South Luzon muna (like Bicol) 😊

If you want something like "hidden" (22:20), you should try Yahno's Food House. They're kinda lowkey but their noodle dishes are so much better than other known lomi houses in Lipa. 👌

Very true. I really want to go to Batangas because we always go to Laguna and Tagaytay but not much food variety and notoriety. Yung Goto and Lomi nila are overrated. Goto is just porridge and damn in my house alone you can taste the best lugaw, Arroz Aldo or goto. Yung mga toppings nila na masyadong marami like meatballs, lumpia, squid balls, etc, doesn't really enhance the flavor. Adding them adds volume in the stomach but doesn't add value to the dish. Step it up Batangas!

I love this kind of authentic reaction :)

Awww, so sad the recommendations doesn’t meet your expectations. Pero can’t blame you puro naman kasi lomi and pancit recipe ang naipa-try sayo, kahit ako parang naumay din tuloy sa lomi. Huhu But lomi din talaga kasi pinaka authentic dito. HAHAA Anyway there’s so many delicacies we have here in Batangas. I hope you visit Taal, nako when you go to the market you’ll find the empanada, longanisa, panutsa, suman, and tapa. Something you should really try!!! Here in Batangas one of the best din talaga ang sinaing na tulingan, goto and bulalo. omygoodness taste authentic.🫶Bwhahahaha but what I think you’ll really love and appreciate the most ay ang Brewed Kapeng Barako na perfect match sa suman. 👏👏 NAKO JESSICA PLEASE COMEBACK, HINDI KAMI PAPAYAG NA GANYAN ANG IMPRESSION MO SA BATANGAS. HAHAHAHAHAHHA CHAROT!

Im from Lucena City, Quezon. Though one of our specialty food here is tamis anghang chami, I actually liked Lipa's tamis anghang chami more than ours, we also tried it at Benok's and their fried chicken is the best

i was taken aback with lipa panceteria! that's our go to since we were a child ahhh

jjajangmyeon 👍

Hi, Jessica!! Are you gonna stay here in the Philippines for Christmas???

Chami is from Quezon Province though. But most Lomi House serve Both, and even here in Quezon specially the town bordering Batangas also serve Lomi.

Liam’s!!! Sobrang sarap din ng Chicken fried rice nila! 😁

I noticed that Jessica is very nutrition conscious person. She knows her macros. I love it. 😂

Recommendations from a batangueño Madalunot lomi house of Calaca AA lomi house of taal Kuya oliver's goto house of san juan Enjoy batangas!

Day 13 of requesting jessica to introduce her team to the viewers and give them hard af challenges❤

oh noo, lomi and chami is so incomplete without the toyomansi with sili. i myself would not like the plain dishes also hahah. fun fact: i remembered being taught to use the plate when eating lomi, cutting the noodles a bit to cool the heat then add the sauce

Glad to hear and see na nndyan ka sa lugar namin sobrang happy to watch you ,,,, i wish nandyan ako that time but sad naman nandito ako sa dubai 😮

Try going to Batangas City mismo next time. The culture and food recipes are way more preserved ❤

Hi I’m from Lipa Batangas. You should try also Gotong Batangas. Kapeng Barako with Suman you will love it 🥰

As a local in Batangas and someone who considers themself as a Lipeño, I'm kinda upset but not offended with how you ate the local dishes from Lipa. I think if you want to experience and have your hopes be proven, of what and where is their best dish in town, then ask locals how they eat their food and not eat them in the wrong way. Chami is best paired with the 'kaldo' is mixed up with the noodles. Lomi is prefferably eaten not directly from the bowl but use the other plate they serve and use the sibuyas and toyomansi to add flavor because Batangas Lomi is is really bland and has that unique slimy texture. But I understand that as a tourist and a first-timer in Lipa, you have your expectations and experience is different from one another. But to say that, you're starting to feel "You came all they way to Batangas and you guys need to show a little more", maybe, try eating our food the way we eat them and that way you'll have the same experience as locals. Lastly, you should've tried Batangas Goto, but please "don't expect too much" since our Goto is very different from the ones in Manila which has rice in it.

calling GMA 7 or other tv networks..please give JLee her own segment for your news or special documentaries..

Hey Jessica been watching you since your Bacolod episode...taga Batangas ako ....maraming pagkain pa ang masusubukan mo sa Batangas kaso NASA mga Tago o specific na lugar ito na HND Gaya sa manila...ask your fellow Korean RU-vidr juwonee....she's our batanguena koreana

damn jessica's tagalog is getting better and better. keep it up!!!

Hi Jessica!! you can try the Pancit Habhab in Lucban Quezon :) and their Longanisang Lucban.... at Hardinera :) at madami pang iba HAHA!!!

Hindi naka abot sa Batangas city😅 come here naman Jessica haha and I recomend our Batangas caldereta, sinaing na tulingan and food that serves on baysanan

You're getting better and better at your Tagalog :3

I like the authenticity and her honesty. Totoong review talaga not just for the views

Pls go to Bulacan, malolos or calumpit 🙏🏻✨

lipa resident here 🙋‍♀️ even I umay na umay na sa lomi but it's part of lipa's identity. If I were to suggest, you should try kakanin like tamales and suman+kapeng barako 👌

Come back to Batangas, Jessica! You can try Merrylane Cafe and Bet’oven in Lipa Batangas. 🎉

There’s so much paborito food here only in Batangas.. Goto, Lomi, Kapeng Barako, kakanin.. You can visit Ka Nestor Gotohan in San Juan, Batangas. You also try the Best Kalderetang Kambing

you went po sa lahat ng mga pinupuntahan nmin na lomian, pero sana may nagturo po sa inyo na you put the lomi sa plate po, d sya kinakain directly from the bowl. Then ung sawsawan po imimix, that way din po mababawasan ung pagkaslimy. :)

I would highly recommend, Tessies Goto and Bulalo. I am a batangueno and I know Lomi is a food staple in Lipa, but as an adult, I would highly recommend Gotong batangas

When I first came to Lipa hindi ko rin nagustuhan yung Lomi and Chami haha pero nung dito na ako tumira, I've grown to love it. Totally understandable for someone who isn't from Lipa or Batangas to not appreciate Lomi in their first try. ❤

Please Try Chicken Chami at Kwatogs Darasa Tanauan Batangas and, Tostadong Tamis Anghang at JRK San Poquinto Malvar, Batangas The Best, more than 20x been there.

Hi Jessica, please visit "CAFEñO" in San Juan, Batangas and order Tapa, Sinaing na tulingan, chocolate cake, and coffee there!!!

I think someone should recommend you Bulalong Batangas and gotong Batangas its different from other places. Also kapeng barako at kalderatang batangas ❤ best of the best ❤❤❤

Very informative. I liked how the batangueño just said no when comparing manila and batangas lomi. Very honest and candid!

So many other food choices in Batangas though. Like Batangas Kaldereta, different from Manila. Sinaing na tulingan. Pinais na dulong. Pritong tawilis. Batangas Goto. Batangas bulalo. Tsokolate and kapeng barako. Atbp...

It's the province servings, Jessica. After a while of being in Manila, I was surprised when I ordered a large lomi in Batangas and realized it's double of what I expected. XD

I was born and raised in Lipa City and you have hit the go to lomihans. The pioneer of lomi is Lipa City Panciteria, but the last time I visited my brothers took me to Liam's and I gave it a 2 thumbs-up.

I wanna try the Liam's Lomi soon too. Also, idk if this is a really a Batangueño thing in way of eating lomi where we use another plate to eat lomi and put toyomansi on it, not eating it directly from the bowl.

From Lipa Batangas here. Recently subscribed to your channel. You should have tried other Batangas Authentic Dishes like Gotong Batangas which is different from Goto Manila which is basically Lugaw with Ox Tripe. Goto Batangas is a combination of beef internal organs.

Ang masarap na lomi sa batangas matatagpuan lang sa mga liblib na lugar😁 pag diyan sa kabayanan hindi sadya masarap 😂😂✌️✌️

go to taal, get some tapa, embotido, nilupak, empanada and taghilaw from the market

jessica try to come here in Batangas City, madami ding food na masasarap dito.

Huhuhu should’ve suggestes Goto Batangas, Lipa Grill, and other good cafes in Lipa bc of the famous kapeng barako

You should try Aling Nene's Mami and Siopao 🍜 also Tessie's Goto and Bulalo 🍲 Quintessential Lipa City Food Gems

Finally you've come in Batangas! Been commenting this to your other vids to try next and it happened before 2023 ends.

The effects on the video gives the whole show a new thrill But i think its done too many times na gusto mo lang naman manood ng tuloy tuloy HAHAHA

I'm from Lipa and the guy u interviewed in 12:06 is Kuya Clyde anak ng Bishop ng church namin hehe

we all have our preference when it comes to food tastes. after all it's her vlog and we are watching her reaction and opinion.

i'm from lipa and i'm sad that everyone recommended just the lomi and noodles stuff. lipa has many good food/restaus and cafes na wala sa ibang lugar. jessica might have asked the wrong people, it lacked variety as she just stayed around dlsl area, where students would recommend the easy go to food na cheap and affordable. nothing wrong with lomi, i love it. pero puro noodles na lang nireco. sana bumalik kayo and ask different people from different area or demographics.

Try not to compare it with any Korean dish. It unconsciously gives you a different perspective of those food.

I hope you go to Batangas City. Try our caldereta, tamales-ibaan, kapeng barako and many more!

the famous Lomi originated from Batangas, but there are several cuisine that Batangas offers... Lipa is definitely one that offers unique touch in Filipino cuisine.

OMGGG finally u came to Batangas but im here in Tanauan City🤧 but im happy that u came here hope u enjoyed all the foodsss

Im batangueño the food here is good pero for me yung lomu is comfort food sya wala syang wow factor para iba pero kung lyung kinalakihan mo masarap sya, instead of lomi i will recommend gotong batangas or sinaing na isda or yung kapeng barako

puro lomi at chami din kasi pinag rerecommend nila, favorite ko ang chami don't get me wrong pero sana talaga may variations. I agree with Jessica sa verdict nya.

You should try famous GOTO in San Juan Batangas. Talagang dinadayo at pinipilahan.

I am new here, I've been watching new content because I am dating a girl from South Korea, and I am really enjoying to know more about Asian culture or Philippines. This is channel is great, I liked !!!

For the cafe and pastries in Lipa City, I can recommend Ijo Bakery (!!) and also the Lipa Cafe not far from there. And if I remember correctly, in Laguna you wasnt in the Santa Cruz area, they have some nice stuff also including seafood and it is the heart of filipino cheese (kesong puti) production. Also, please some "vacation editions" in some places more far away, like Cebu and Iloilo.. (Bacolod you did already, diba?) And holiday food editions like Xmas foods and so on

damn your super CUTE Jessica Lee 🤩😚😍😊😘💕❤️💞 Still watching 💪💪💪 December 3, 2o23
