Thank you so much for visiting our country Philippines!👍💓 and I just want you to know that Pampanga is the food capital of the Philippines. Hope you can visit when you comeback here. Thank you! God bless!💓👍
My wife and I only started watching you last week and it didn't take many episodes for us to subscribe. You are an adorable family and strike a good balance in content and focusing on adults and Malia. She brightens every episode and makes me think of when our daughter (now 31) was that age.
Have fun visiting our country! Can’t wait to go back also this month. We are going to Boracay and El Nido also. Pls try also Mang Inasal I love the chicken there. Have fun again you guys! 😊
if you're going to baguio way, there's a vegetarian/vegan restaurant called 'oh my gulay' (literally translates to 'oh my vegetable'😅. check it out, if you can. take care guys.
I've never been in Marikina but when I saw this vid I definitely must go to this place! Thank you for sharing this awesome vid! Can't wait to taste their foods!!!
This promotes the best dishes the local City of Marikini has to offer. It offers tourism as well. The place is very nostalgic and affordable to everyone
Welcome to my country. Halo Halo is my favorite and please try other places b/c certain places makes it better such as Milky Way Cafe in Makati. One of the best in Manila. Enjoy your travels in the Philippines.
Love that you guys tried a more authentic food experience in the Philippines! Some of the night markets in the city are geared more for tourists. I used to live in Marikina, and you made me miss the place 😢 Anyway, great videos, and more power to your family!!
Thank you! Yes we started to understand that what we were seeing and eating was not authentic, so we reached out to Khee for her to show us REAL Filipino foods 😊❤️
@@WhereNextFamily if you're still in the area and you can find a food guide in the Quiapo area, they have a large variety of amazing "street food" there. Also try Binondo, the largest Chinatown in the world.
the first family who doesn't like HALO HALO, and thank you for that, maybe because you haven't prepared a better one, because HALO HALO is varied. still, I'm glad that you've tried it.
Hehe its not that we didn't like it 🙈 it was just very different from what we're used to 😊 According to others in the comments apparently we didn't get a great Halo Halo so we're definitely up for trying it again 😊
Adam, you have a gift of attracting attention with your voice. You should think of collab'ing with the other famous brit travel vlogger "Bald and Bankrupt" for a video or 2. You will get more subs quickly.
not all halo2x are created equal, depending on the region AND depending on the how powdery the ice is, if there's chunk of ice then it is not good. Aling Foping's Halo-Halo (unfortunately it is in Davao City it is very far from where you at) the best halo2x I've tasted in the PH so far (the powdery ice and all) not to mention you can customize the halo2x - if you don't like the beans then you check it in the paper that they will give you before you can order the halo2x 😎😎👍👍
Jollibee halo halo is the worst one better go the Mang Inasal never had it there but Everyone Said it’s Good ….. The Best one is in MANILA HOTEL Expensive But it’s Worth The Trip …. ✌️🙌👌💕🇺🇸
Local guides need to have the attitude of travelers who are not ignorant of the food culture of other countries, so they can be more chilled. They should also know what is exotic and what is mundane to foreigners who have been to so many other places. Guide is good enough. But could be more chilled.
Yes us as well, but seeing as we were filming a food vlog it didn't quite fit. It was also the second vlog of the day and I'm not sure our brains could handle it 🤣🤣🤣
going to a foreign country, expect a different flavor/taste you're use to at UK??? Plus the way you would eat a dish,,, using kalamansi, vinegar and so on.
Absolutely of course we expect a different flavour 🙂 We were giving our instant reaction to trying things for the first time so sometimes it's a shock to the taste buds when you're not used to it. Doesn't mean we didn't enjoy though 🙂
It was a big deal for us because prior to this we had been eating a "polished" and inauthentic version, so it was really nice getting out of the big city and into a local area to eat more authentic Filipino food
Palabo, okoi, halo halo, banana ponyelo, hotsio.... 😋 😂 😂 I swear the names sounds like names of bugs, frogs and slags in swahili.... I'd be lie no thanks until I see what exactly it is
Hehe yes for sure. I think for us it was the ingredients that confused us. Beans are very much a savoury thing in our minds so we had to get over our conception of certain foods 😊 It was nice though 🙌
Your tour guide didn't teach you the right way of eating pancit palabok and other dishes like lumpiang toge she said it's okoy and it's wrong. Don't know where she got the way and name call of some foods you ordered. The right way of eating palabok is you have mix all ingredients like orange sauce and toppings. Mix it all together before squeeze of citrus calamansi. Lumpiang toge have a dip sauce a combination of soy sauce and vinegar raw garlic and raw onion. Rice goto eats with tofu pork. Halo-halo means mix mix. You have to mix it's all ingredients from top to bottom. That's the way of eating those Filipino foods.
I know nobody is perfect but seems happens several times buy this lady tour guide. I watched her many times in some video with a foreign vlogger like you, don't know why she never learns to their previous vlogs. One times I watched on foreign food vlogger together with a Filipino tour guides ordering kare-kare dish, the kare-kare is serve with a shrimp paste. Because the tour guide never teach how to eat the kare-kare the foreigner put all the shrimp paste in kare-kare so the entire kare-kare is being salty and I can see the face reaction of the foreign vlogger I know he is disappointed to the saltiness and overpowering of shrimp paste. Kare-kare is being eaten by pinch of shrimp paste not to much. Shrimp paste balance the sweetness of the kare-kare.
@@davemendoza681 Interesting. Well we had a wonderful time none-the-less and she took us places we likely wouldn't have done without her guidance so we're very appreciative of her time. I totally appreciate your comment though, so thanks for letting us know the information was incorrect! We love PH and can't wait to come back and explore more
Hi Dave, thanks for watching and commenting. The lumpiang togue we ate was actually "okoy" at the gotohan's menu. They called it that way because it had small shrimps in it just like okoy but in a form of a lumpia. I've only seen and heard of it in this food establishment too. As for the palabok, I believe there's no right or wrong way of eating it.🙂
@@foodiemommaph the establishment should correct it coz it's actually lumpiang togue..okoy was made from flour and egg and round shape..as per Dave comment their is always a room for improvement
Halo halo is supposed to be a delicious treat if all the ingredients are there. Im amazed that they don't liked it, but why? I can only sense that you've not tasted the real halo halo mixture, like right ingredients are missing so that you can only taste just a sweetened milk with those beans and some gelatins and sometimes ice cream... Not enough and not original.... I guess they didn't serve ube, langka, sweetened banana, lecheflan, cruchy pinipig which are the main flavours of halohalo... So next time try to ask for these ingredients, it will give you a different experience in a better sense..
I'm not sure. We didn't say we didn't like it, but just that it was unusual for us so weren't sure about it. Sometimes when you try something for the first time you spend more time figuring out all the flavours than you do actually just enjoying it 😊
@@WhereNextFamily yes, it is not your usual drink or food, and you're not sure what it really tastes.. Normally vendors would display in glass containers those ingredients so you can see all the sweet stuffs.. and I see it's too white, just milky flavour with those bite pieces, and too watery, too bland, I guess... it should be oozing with colours.. if it is topped with a big scoop of purple yam (ube), a good chunk of flan, a sweetened jackfruit, then you're in for a nice & better taste, you'll see that the full mix will not be white, but purply, and thicker... Me, before I mix them up, I try to taste some bits of these just to savor those different sweetness... 👌🏼
@@WhereNextFamily can't wait for your next adventure.. I enjoy watching these foreign vlogs of my local place, cause I'm an expat in a different country, and I miss my own city.. nice to see them and what happening this time.. so enjoy guys!
