WHat a husstler! Selling fruits on the streets of the phillipines to chefing for princes at UAE to owning a restaurant in NYC! All in one lifetime before she's even 40. Impressive! The food looks delicious.
I love hearing an authentic Filipino accent on this channel. And I like that they really know what they're saying, cause sometimes the other Fil-Am chefs say something inaccurate 😅
An actual pinoy chef! Who actually speaks our language! And knows how things are done in the philippines. Not some fil am who thinks they know the country. Very refreshing. Fruit jams on the street are no longer php5 :( Great video
@@Eftinyc Chef, kaya pa po 5 petot...pero sa baso na lang po ng scramble. Hehe. Congrats po sa feature! Nirecommend ko na po sa pinsan ko yung resto ninyo. Sabi ko itikim na lang nila ako. Sana po lumago po ang negosyo ninyo.
@@destinyfire8185 I've seen arrogant ones who have the wrong ideas about the Philippines because they're more American than they are Filipino since they didn't grow up in the Philippines. Nothing against them unless they misrepresent.
some pinoys are so insecure and narrow-minded that they have to spout underhanded comments while saying "proud to be pinoy." why focus on the accent, instead of this person's awesome abilities as a chef and food entrepreneur?? so embarrassed for these silly noypi commenters.
I'm Filipino and this woman reminds me of all my aunties and cousins and my mother combined. So awesome to see this energy behind fine dining. Need to eat here!
She needs her own show tbh. It’s so entertaining and witty! And the Tender Juicy hotdog pride and pronunciation. Lol It’s the same hotdog in Filipino spaghettis hahaha. But I wish you showed the course/meals.
The regional cuisines of The Philippines are massively underrated considering its sheer diversity and imaginativeness. Region to region, island to island all boast unique culinary pockets that make the best use of local ingredients.
She loves the job at hand, her passion and commitment is obvious, she's in one of the toughest businesses out there... I wish you the best chef. Keep your head up even at hard times. 🙏
She's so pinoy 😂 The vibe, the humour, the accent and of course her love and passion for cooking😃 thanks for featuring her BA.👏👏👏 Filipino cuisine is just so unique.
I've been watching bon appétit videos for a while now and to see for the first time a representation of my heritage alongside other restaurants in such a cutthroat industry feels very much inspiring for a Filipino like me in her early 20s, holding a dream and a great passion for cooking.. kudos to Tadhana and Chef Frances!
The personality and passion makes you want to root for her. As a Filipino, I agree that nothing is wrong going non traditional especially like balut that is a hard sell for foreign palate.
She deserves a Star. She's great and full of knowledge and skills. Nice to watch a vlog with at last...intelligence and brains. Love this and worth it.
So great to see Frances doing her thing and running her own show! She was a customer of mine at a bunch of spots and always was super professional but really fun.
thank you BA for featuring her on your channel...love her energy 🥰...this is the first time I really enjoyed a featured Filipino talk about our cuisine, she KNOWS Filipino cuisine
Kudos chef!! You’re one of the legit chefs!!! Not like trying to be chef like everybody else in Philippines… coz they graduated in known culinary school. They called themselves a chef! 🤦🏻♂️ ISA KANG TUNAY!!!! Mabuhay ka.
When he started to explain the details of the fish and how it’s respected as a quality ingredient as compared to how it’s done in America. I wasn’t even surprised. You can’t beat Japan and the prestige of how things are done. Not just with food and ingredients.
It’s always so refreshing and entertaining to see more SEA owner chefs on here! I love their energy and their passion, this is the type of content I’d love to see more of :)
🎉🇵🇭 I really appreciate the generosity in showing us some chef techniques and insider business stuff. Proud and happy to see the use of jackfruit, penoy, hotdog, and Pinoy names of dishes. More power to you, Frances 💙🤍❤️🔥
Wow! Chef Frances was so fun to watch. The dishes looked amazing. Now I can't wait to head to Tadhana and dive into some delicious Filipino cuisine ASAP!
What a Boss Lady !! Full of Love, Passion and Commitment for her project .. amazing food , made with heart & soul .. I wish her and her team and customers well .. 🙏
Omg I find this very motivating! I’m currently in school and we have food service courses where creativity is a must and this definitely screams innovation. This is so insightful and inspiring and I'll definitely be considering this route because of this! I pray Tadhana gets that Michelin star!!
I wanna see more of this restaurant and see how the makeover will turn out to. Hope BA will follow up on it. Like they did with the koreans and the crispy chicken wings thing.
Much respect for this food artist! She is fantastic and brilliant! To her respect for each and every member of her staff, to the care for the fresh food and unique preparation, and finally her guests - their enjoyment, their experience and their complete and utterly mind-blowing experience to her take on classic and modern Filipino food!
I find it interesting how she mentions she only uses 50% of the fish since the Filipino cuisine is usually very resourceful in utilizing every part of the animal, especially in an expensive fish.
