- What food fuels the slum that never sleeps?
Pasil, home to the Philippines’ oldest port and an important fish market that the entire Cebu city revolves around, is buzzing 24 hours a day. Whether at midnight, pre-dawn or the morning rush, there are always people looking for a filling meal for cheap.
Around the clock, these food vendors are cooking up incredible dishes using offal and offcuts like brain and liver or cheaper fish to create belly-warming dips and soups. And these residents have each other’s back, providing freebies like a gravy that allows unlimited dips to a seafood grilling service at no extra charge. This slum’s food economy is out to help those with little to spare.

Honestly all the food that was shown here looks very good. Especially that last soup! Looks so good. And you can see they are honest and hard working people.
Just for clarification, pig brains is not a food for the poor people in the Philippines. Its price is actually close to pork meat , so you can't consider it for people . When I buy ( goto/ a variety of porridge) its a little bit pricey and not always available even though its always on the menu . Pig brains are usually eaten with those acquired taste , and not a lot of people like it . Rich or poor people it depends on their preference , so we don't eat it because we are poor but some of just like to eat it .
Exactly. Dinakdakan has pig brain but it'a not considered poverty food, but BEER food. You even start to see this in more "proper" restos
Singapore government propaganda so that Singaporeans will always say SG is always doing good and discourage to protest for PAP government that is running Singapore.
During my younger days in Cebu City. I used to go this place to purchase fresh seafoods and eat their famous cuisines. This is famous in my city. For me it is not a slum food. But it's a delicacy for us as a pure blooded Cebuano. And I tell you frankly, It's not dirty food. Even now in my forties, I still hang around and eat there.
It's amazing to get this prospective of life, livelihood and food.
Many thanks to the channel for bringing this kind of amazing stories.
I love this show,thank you CNA. Captivating !
showing different corners of our neighbours ❤ seeing them happy despite of the struggles. “ Some people are poor but so rich by heart” ..
to the Sir who didn't charge for grilling service I'll pray for you long time happiness and more profit come to you in future.
Philippine mums are tough, they work so hard for their family without complains.
Thank you so much for featuring my hometown and showing how amazing the people are 🥰
She is a typical Bisaya Pinay accommodating, simple and happy despite hardships in life.
hao u noe
People in Pasil seem to have a very loving and kind heart.
too bad it's infested by pickpockets and a den of criminals. the actions of the few gives that area a bad reputation.
they also have fats surrounding their kind hearts from all the nasty and oily food they consume
Nice to see CNA specializing in stories of poverty. Every Singaporean who has a rough time, business or school troubles, divorce, etc. should watch this series and regain hope in himself that yes, his personal failings are not the worst in the world.
So CNA must show poverty porn, to make other people feel better?
I often say that majority of Filipinos are like Diogenes, without them even knowing it. Outsiders try to box Filipinos to their concept of money.
A lot of Filipinos are happier (Quality of life) even with our current Standard of living. We are communal, we love to be surrounded by people. Even if you think that the area looks "poor", you will be surprise of how rich in happiness people are there.
Also most of these vendors might look poor to you, but they earn way more than average wage in Philippines. Some are just contented with their living condition. A crowded place like those means cheap rent for business and more customers. Also food business is really time and physically demanding, even there in SG.
@@snarveien1853 CNA is a Singaporean public service. Its first duty is to Singapore.
I'm not sure the average Singaporean will see things the way you describe them. As a first world nation, career and success comes first. Now, of course this entails pressures that may deal blows to one's self-esteem, and that is where Mediacorp comes in. You can't downplay how important this is for SGers.
This is somehow insulting. Where does it say that she is poor? Because she eat pig's brain? I hate this comment. It showed Singaporean arrogance. This is why Singaporean are racist.
In this Philippines we can buy land, can you common folk buy a land? Lol
@@Moepowerplant as rude as it may sound, there are other people out there who have it worse. I hate admitting things like this but it is what it is.
@@snarveien1853 very true! These vendors earn more. Haha anyways, infairness naloka ako sa comment nitong singaporean na to. Lowkey pasmado ang bibig. Ginawa pa tayong mga pinoy na motivation. binigyan tayo ng responsibilidad. sana pati ugali nila ma motivate din natin para mabawasan ng kaunti pagka hambog😂
My home province. Their lives are so inspiring ❤ People in Pasil are really friendly & hardworking people. Before it was a bit dangerous but now crime rates have dropped in that area.
Thank you so much CNA.
Once a week I tend to show atleast one video from your channel to my Year 9 Social Science students here in Fiji.
This people are truly amazing. They think more of their customers instead of earning more. They truly understand their customers are also like them trying to survive. God bless all of you.
The language of the people of the central Philippines is very similar to the regional languages of Indonesia, it feels familiar to hear it.
Yes we even have similarities when it comes to counting usa duha tulo upat
We are all brothers, hope we build ASEAN.
Most filipinos back in ancient times migrated from Indonesia.
The subtitles even auto translates to indonesian
Swebwano or Cebuano language is a Austronesian language just like Indonesian.
May god bless the people of the Philippines. Thank you for sharing your lives with us.
Love this series. Hope CNA renews this for the next season.
nice
Glad they made another doc about this series. Have you watched the first one? I did made monok after watching it
Yup! CNA our go-to for poverty porn.
my experience with tuslob-buwa, I already ate about 6 or 7 puso, then I asked the vendor what the ingredients are, I was stunned when she said pig brain, no words came out of my mouth. Paid for my meal. Got to my room. Haven't eaten it again and that was about 6 years ago now. I do admit though, it tasted soooo good. watching this reminded me of the aroma of when it's cooking, mmmmm...
Filipino are optimistic people,even they are poor or having a hard life ,this make them keep going 👍
FYI: there are really 2 barangays that are close together Pasil & Suba.
WOW!!! remembering a lot of memories during childhood days.. God bless the people of CEBU & PASIL
Idk why it's being featured as poor man's meal but pig's brain and porcupine fish are staple food in asia.
Im asian but i never taste pig's brain and porcupine fish
@@Mango_10798 maybe it's time for you to at least drop by at a wet market and get those if you're curious.
In Vietnam, there are pig brain in the wet market. But there no way in hell are we selling porcupine fish.
Thank you, CNA, for documenting the lives of the marginalized sectors of Cebu and highlighting their everyday struggles and the culture they want to introduce to outsiders.
That porcupine soup looks so mouthwatering 😅. Made me wanna try someday. I've visited this city many years ago. But unfortunately i didn't know that you guys have this unique cuisine. Salam from indonesia
Lots for love from Southern Africa I love this cooking shows and stories from daily life In Asia 😊.
Misinformation! Porcupine fish is NOT poisonous like a puffer fish.... I know ,; because I cook and eat porcupine fish 🐟
The shot at the end was nice showing the contrast. The bridge shown is new. Made to bypass the area and connect two islands. A direct access to Cebu International Airport.
When I was young I thought we were poor. Then I started knowing first world people who only goes on vacation for a few days a year. Working sixteen hour days. Now I'm older i realize there are so many good things about my country. We'd go to the beach every weekend. Even everyday when we want to. Love doesn't require a big bank account. And food is great and cheap.
In first world countries everyone says "we should consider ourself lucky" or "we should be happy" but no one says "we are happy"
1:47 marites face to face session
Sorry if similar comment has been made before -- but the rice cake in woven pandan leaves, we have it too in Indonesia and Malaysia, we call it KETUPAT. I'm actually giggling to watch this eaten with a pork dish, because in Indonesia ketupat is normally associated with the Eid Fitr celebration!:)))
Hello. Here in the Ph, we don’t use pandan leaves to wrap the rice cakes. Instead, we use young coconut leaves.
Many ofw's like me abroad, we have been longing to have a good governance in the Philippines.... looks like it will take us so long 😢
I admire these people..... working hard to survive..... food looks delicious aswell...these programmes are interesting.... n i am fascinated with the filipino language... will learn it
I rode by this place when I was living in Cebu and never went in there. I think a good Sisig needs pigs brain. But I have no idea cuz I was just an expat. Cebu Lechon is also untouchable. I can't eat Hawaiian Imu pork anymore because I know what Cebu Lechon tastes like.
So proud of my culture. Proud Sugboanon. Viva Sugbo! 💐🌺🏝
Thank you CNA for featuring this.. pasil is just our neighborhood 😊 a few steps from our place
Great series, loved the stories of the people!
Great series!
Nice to see CNA specializing in stories of poverty. Every Singaporean who has a rough time, business or school difficulties, divorce, etc. should watch this series and regain hope in himself that yes, his personal failings are not the worst in the world.
yes.
I miss my hometown.
please show more video like this👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Pa-ihaw simply the best 😋🤤☺️❤️
Ay kalami ,pasugba pa more yummy
18:58 looks like a Rolex watch she’s wearing😅
I'm so happy my city got featured
Pig brain isn't necessarily "slum food". Pig brain is a core ingredient of Dinakdakan. No, it's not "poverty food", it is BEER food
Greetings from Thailand 🇹🇭 unfortunately my country does not eat animal brains it’s very rare but this looks amazing most of our food is just regular parts of the animal and curry’s 😊
wow, I remember the one from the Bajau people's cuisine. That porcupine fish.
*Pig's Brain and Liver gravy and Purcupinefish Soup seasoned with vegetables is a popular dish of Cebu not a slumfood, Singaporeans must learn how to research carefully.*
😏😏😏😏😏😏😏😏😏😏😏😏😏😏
Ate lou's Tuslob buwa in UC metc cebu is the most popular tuslob buwa in all cebu city....
I can catch some cognates word : utok, baboy, atay, asin, suka, anak In bahasa Indonesia: otak, babi, hati, asin, cuka, anak = brain, pig, liver, salty, vinegar, child and even their rice cake in coconut leaves is just the same with Idul Fitri celebration delicacy in Indonesia: ketupat #Austronesianbrothers
Nice story CNA 👏 #ProudBisaya
Ahhhh, the famous "Larang" soup. Jeez, I haven't had one of that for a long time. Best eaten between 4-5 am when the fish is still fresh from the port (you can actually still smell the sea from the fish), also when you are heading home after a night out drinking. haha. Doesn't cure hangover though but will lessen the headache the morning after.
Craving for all those food! Ughhh
The Japanese chef must be screaming when the porcupine fish is being gutted.
Jokes aside, I love this series. Managed to try a few dishes in the other episodes.
Oh please,they've been cooking this kinds of fish since pre colonial era,the Japanese only did it pre/post world war.
I’m from Cebu, puso in English is a hanging rice not a rice cake.
katawa man kos "naa na ako utok? " ahhahha
Duha ra man ang iyang utok, mangita kog tulo ka utok haha
@@kushilabisto3771 haha
Mingaw nuon kos Pasil dah.
What is rice cake called in Philippines? In Indonesia it called ketupat
They call it PUSO. Cebuano ancestors come from Sumatra under Srivijayan Empire that's why they also have Babi Guling.
In South Carolina it's called hash and its delicious
Busog ko dihaa kadtong ni bakasyon ku salamat boss 😂😂😂😂😂
miss sinugba so much 😭
The sour fish soup looks good
wow
that lenikiko banner tho❤❤❤❤
Tuslob Buwa. And do you know what’s the best thing about this dish? That is…that you can double dip
😂. I Can wait to experience or even make this dish, although I’m not sure what’s the exact ingredients in that palm leaf baggie. And I just searched it and it’s called pusô. Great I now have the ingredients, but don’t have any palm leaf to cover it with, more so how to make a baggie out of it 😅
Our maid used to make it and it's nice
Double dip m yung laway🤣🤣🤣
The double dipping is crazy with strangers..
ឃ្លានឆ្ងាញ់ស្រឡាញ់ស្អាត!😂
Hi..
I’m from Malaysia..The rice cakes at here Malaysia we call it ‘Ketupat’ it’s Malay dishes..We eat with Rendang Chicken,Rendang Meat..It’s look nice to see Ketupat at there 😁
I was born In cebu not to far from pasil.
Next time I fly home for a holiday im definitely going to visit these food places.
Pasil was known as a very bad & dangerous place back in the days.
in samar sinugba
Isn't that Fugu? Why are there no precautions taken in preparing them?
*Porcupinefish and Pufferfish (Fugu) is different.*
Lucio, ftw!
Unsay rice cakes ba uie ?? Taka lang mo hap...hanging rice intawn na uie
Walay specific English term sa puso. Naay uban hanging rice, heart rice etc.
Wow nice 👏.
4:45 asa man diay ang utok sa baboy naa sa lubot? Utok pana HAHAHAHAHA
In Spain we eat pig´s brain. Not very common, but we do. We call it "sesos". Maybe the origin is spanish...
Ofcourse a European would assume they invented it , people have been eating pigs brain since ancient times.
naglaway ko nagtanaw hahaha
how the heck is porcupine fish a poor people's food when in Japan only rich people can afford it, we're just lucky we're able to get it for a lesser price infact in our province we get it for free in the sea. It's meaty and kind of sweet 😋
Tuslob luwa 😅
Yeah those aren't cheap 😂 Porcupine fish requires skill and preparation. Tuslob buwa is exotic food.
Healthy, probably not. but taste awesome though..
60 peso for a pig brain, can be equal to RM 5 or 6.
Is it considered mahal? Would people lives in manila think this is affordable?
That would be considered affordable in Manila.
Porcupine Fish what
6:33 patis is fish sauce not soy sauce.
Many central provinces, and even some places in northern mindanao, refer to soy sauce as "patis" for some reason. Fish sauce, the real patis, is not very popular as most people prefer the salted fish called ginamos.
@@ReyLamurin That's weird. Patis literally means sauce from fermented fish. I'm a Mindanaoan myself and have not encountered anyone referring soy sauce as patis. Toyo is a known condiment that we barely mistook as patis.
@@ramosity Yes. Their hipon also isn't shrimp but a kind of tiny fish 😁
rice cakes???? im triggered
*PORCUPINEFISH - NOT POISONOUS*
*PUFFERFISH (FUGU) - POISONOUS*
😏😏😏😏😏😏😏😏😏😏😏😏😏😏
Correction, the exchange rate of peso and dollar is 54=💲1
Huge failure of our government that the people of Pasil and numerous other slum communities in our country can't be rehoused into proper housing and live with all their basic needs met.
Cebu government is very elitist just like NCR.
It's not that. Proper housing aka gov housing won't suit the average Filipino family and Filipinos don't want to be away from their families and community.
Puso is not a rice cake.
Obesity is real
Double dipping. Yuk
bless you
Eating live monkey brain is more yuckier
Dont yuk my food
@@danrodriguez119 don't get your spit in the dipping sauce!
@@danrodriguez119 your pozole used to be made with humans
Pag pag nation 😂
Its not pagpag, did you watch the video? Pagpag is only in manila
Someone watched a docu bout it and his stupid brain thinks the whole country of 110m eats it. 😅
You don't even have POSO !!
@@jjjjcccc0001 let them be 😂😂😂
Pagpag is only in Manila,but not whole Manila,why everyone thinks all people in the Philippines eats pagpag ,so stupid😂😂
Salo m lahat ng laway ng sumasawsaw jan🤣🤣🤣
