This is my first time in The Philippines! Im so happy to be here in Manila for the first time to discover so much about this beautiful country.
In this video, we fly from Singapore, Changi Airport into Clark International Airport, before catching a 3 hour taxi to Manila. We check into our hotel, fall asleep, and get ready to explore!
We’re staying in the Makati City area of Manila, so we set out on foot to see what the city has to offer - whilst searching for some local food, particularly Banana Cue and Banana Turon!
We met so many nice and lovely people - Manila gave us the best Welcome to the Philippines we could ask for!

Oh my! I left Manila in '89..been here in the US for so long & if I ever go back home to visit, i'd be so lost with all the new buildings & also the crazy traffic. Filipinos are naturally hospitable & friendly. English is our 2nd language & at first you will stand out because you're a foreigner but if they know that you are there to visit, they will help you if you have questions. Go island hopping, taste diff. food from different provinces & have fun. I truly enjoyed your video. Greetings from Orlando, Florida.

PH is made of thousands of islands, so you have hundreds of options to choose your next adventure. I recommend Coron, Bantayan Isaland, El Nido, Bohol tour, Sagada and Baguio. But while you're in Manila, you can check their museums if you're into history. You can choose either urban or nature adventures depending what your vibe on the day or week is.

Wow! I love your positivity and enthusiasm! You arrived in the Philippines with 19.5K subscribers. Keep up with this and watch your subscribership soar! Filipinos love it when foreign vloggers look at the positive aspects of our country. We're so tired of foreign vloggers who focus so much on the abject poverty and the scary-looking dishes. That's not all what the Philippines is all about, you know. Many of your vloggers will also be Filipinos breaking their backs working in the Middle East, North America, Asia, etc. just to send money home to their families. They're homesick. They are watching vicariously their home country through your eyes. TIP: Please get to know some local terms (don't butcher the pronunciation; you wouldn't want us butchering yours; ask around about the correct pronunciation ... Filipinos are a helpful and patient lot) and interact with the locals. Good luck, stay safe, and enjoy the Philippines. Oh, sorry about the rainy season ... we don't plan these things. Hahaha! :)

You'll probably going to the south of the Philippines to see the beaches and islands but if you ever have the time, try visiting the northern part of the country. I'd recommend the ilocos region, Cordillera (mountainous) region, and batanes which is considered the most beautiful province in the Philippines. They also have islands and beaches there specifically in the Ilocos region. While the Cordillera region is known for its cold climate in a tropical country. You should also try looking up las casas Filipinas de Acuzar in bagac bataan, which is pretty much a town full of hundreds of years old Filipino houses. It's pretty close to manila so it's an easy travel.

On a side note, the banana you ate that was on the Turon and Banana-Q is a variety called Saba. There is a tartness to it so that is why it isn't usually eaten fresh. But when cooked, it becomes sweet. That's why you will usually find that variety of bananas in Filipino cooking and deserts, which both of those things are considered as. The place where you ate at, generally is called turo-turo, literal translation is point-point. Its a type of store where you come in and point at what you want. Also, the thing what you thought was peanut butter, is in fact Bagoong (Shrimp paste) and is the accompany dipping sauce of the Kare-Kare (beef peanut stew). The shrimp paste is salty which gives balance o the sweetness of the Kare-Kare. Typical Filipino foods likes to play around with contrasting flavors. Salt/sweet, Salt/sour, ect. Also as a general rule, a majority of filipino dishes will come with a dipping sauce, its is again there to play around with taste. whether it be soy sauce with kalamansi, or fish sauce, or soy with vinegar, the list goes on.

Welcome to the Philippines! Definitely on Team Turon, next time you have to have it with Langka (also known as Jackfruit, another fruit wrapped with the banana), hands down the best!!

You exude sunshine and positivity so yes, I pressed the like and subscribe buttons, hoping to see more of your vlogs. Enjoy your stay! The Philippines has a lot to offer in terms of food, culture and traditions, as well as the arts. We’ve been under Spain for 400 years in the past, the US also has a strong impact in who we are. I’ve been to Melbourne twice before and enjoyed my stay each time. I like your food too! :-)

I like both your enthusiasm for eating street and local foods. That Beef Kare Kare sauce is made with peanut as one of the ingredients and the one on the dipping sauce bowl is a shrimp paste.

Pinays (Filipino Ladies) always say that the best tasting banana is still the Pinoy banana, a bit shorter, but yummy :). Check out BGC for the best modern vibe in Metro Manila. All the best from Team Turon!

@timPalmeri 2 года назад

Welcome guys to the Philippines…4:55 we have many variety of banana to try…even with banana que, the riper the banana is the better…Turon (Banana wrap) varries too some vendor put jack fruit in it that adds different flavour…and we have what we call Kamote Que as well same way of cooking but instead of banana they use sweet potatoe…16:30 thats shrimp paste goes with the dish kare-kare…instead of using salt we use shrimp paste for additional flavor…this dish varies depends which region or part of the country you are…most of our dishes have many version as I have said depends which part of the country you are…try Sisig most tourist love it…love your enthusiasm josie…enjoy exploring guys…
