Love that your channel is expanding to other cuisines and other food destinations besides just the steakhouses and restaurants with impossible reservation/wait lists.
so glad you're now showing us some asian adventures (been meaning to ask in a comment as to if or when you were planning to do so), and being Filipino, I'm stoked you jumped right in! Your list of things to eat was pretty spot on and a great place to start...like many cuisines, there are so many variations of each dish, I would recommend doing it again (on or off camera) and getting the same things from different vendors...the one you missed here that was sold out (but it was on your list) was pancit...there are sooo many varieties of this starting from what meat someone uses, which noodle (flour, rice, bean, etc.) and on and on...but of the pancit options, I would recommend my personal favorite style called "Palabok" or "Lug lug"...it's super different and has alot going on, and IMO the best version (there's even a region in the Philippines that specializes in this variant)...halo halo is also classic and sorry you missed it...super refreshing and very unique with all the different mixins and toppings, etc (which usually has ube ice cream)...thanks so much for exploring the Filipino food culture...I think you guys would really enjoy a trip there, based on how friendly and inexpensive it is to explore...and you definitely can find street food there for like $1-$2 which will be as good as what you had in NYC...look forward to more asian adventures! cheers
Can’t believe you got a table at the NYC Citibikes without getting a Resy 4 weeks in advance! Appreciate this video concept. Also appreciate Kristen knew that it was Pokimane’s cookies, as there a decent amount of drama regarding them.
Haha that is hilarious! We tried going back there later and most of the bikes were taken. No more space for walk-ins I guess! Yeah we looked into the cookies more after we filmed this and heard about the drama. We've actually been looking for the Costco version! The Myna ones are good but wayyy too expensive
Not much time today but glad you were game to try so many different things. Lumpia is good l’ve had them before and will use your experiences as a guide. Have a great weekend!
It was amazing! It's tough to describe and compare foods you've never tried before but we really liked it all. We wanted to but we've been out of town a lot lately! Is there one in particular you think we should check out?
Try Filipino food in the Philippines...especially the street food that is prevalent and commonplace in their culture...you will see vendors everywhere in Manila/Metro Manila. It will definitely be a different but more genuine experience than what you are experiencing in America.

Awesome vid. Kristin is so good at describing food, like a true pro. Love these vids so much
Thanks so much! We certainly love making them. We love an excuse to eat!

Love this one! That food looked so good but really pricey
Thanks! Yeah we were not expecting to spend nearly as much as we did!
My “Wow” is for the “Lechón🐖”..
-Lechón🐷= $20.00 dollars.
-See you guys seated at the sidewalk like little kids = Priceless 😍💝
Haha I'm sure that street is very clean!

Thanks for always watching!
Such a fun video. I hope you try other food festivals. I work for a global airline and love our potluck lunches. I love trying new food!
Thanks! We definitely will, it's a lot of fun trying all new things. Wow what a great job perk!
You guys should take the food show to Southeast Asia. You'll lose your minds there.
That would be amazing! We've got a lot of travel coming up, but we're hoping to plan a Southeast Asia trip for sometime next year
Love seeing you guys try Filipino food since I haven't had it either! Will you be hitting up any more food festivals? Great review as usual! 🥰

We are hoping to plan a trip there soon!
@travelfuller I look forward to seeing that trip...my girlfriend is Filipina living in Batangas province south of Manila 😉
9.00 USD for 4 lumpias! Outrageous. To live comfortably in NYC, you have to make at least 150K minimum.
Ah actually it was for 6! Still really expensive but we forgot to film it before we ate two!
