    To all those whom said that it's too expensive unlike Phil price. It's showing how ignorant you guys are. Why expect it to be sold in the same price as in the Philippines? The ingredients and all possible expenses are based on the cost of living there. It's in NY of all states. Study economics!!

    FYI, most Filipino entreés are meant to be eaten with rice. So if something is a little too salty, pair it with rice. And THE quintessential dipping sauce is vinegar + soy sauce. So if anything is too greasy, yoy MUST have it with something acidic. We have lots of vinegar options. That sisig is a little too chunky. Normally, it would be chopped up a little finer than small cubes. Just like with any food, it really depends where you get it. Also, we have TONS of regional dishes too. I mean, 7,641 islands....yeah, lots of different variations. Glad you had fun. Now you must check out Little Manila and try the restuarants there. Cheers

      Yeah, and what's surprising is there are even people here who still try to argue that they're still expensive even by NYC standards. Have you guys tried imported goods or eaten imported dishes in your own country? Say you're here in Philippines and you're eating AUTHENTIC Japanese/Thai/Mexican food or whatever. Of course they're gonna be more expensive, some of the ingredients used can't be bought locally. Also, it's a fair, prices at those places/events really go up way more. When you compare, you should factor out lots of things.

    Ohhh, the store didn't mix the sisig beforehand! It's basically a pork salad, you mix it with the onions and chili in that small container then finish it with the lime juice (sisig means to season the food with something sour) That's where the flavors were supposed to come from. ❤ Glad you enjoyed the other items.

    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

Also they should have the Palabok I referred to on my original comment (but it's a basic but very tasty version of the authentic kind...definitely curious on what you guys think)...also def get a peach and/or mango pie...think of a McDs type of apple pie dessert, but waaayy better...ok I'll stop now cuz I'm getting hungry lol...honestly, I'm Filipino-American (born in US), and also live in TX lol...but I'm sure you're a few clicks down the YT or Google rabbit hole to find out good Filipino eats in NYC...

    Hi! I love that you got to try Filipino food for the first time here and you or checklist is an awesome intro to the cuisine (and my personal favorites!).
    Reading a lot of the comments on price - folks need to remember this is a festival with lots of small businesses that are seeking to share authentic meals with a unique flair. They are also “pop-ups” essentially, so prices will be higher! Also of course, welcome to NYC prices 😊
    Here are some suggestions for places around the city that will have these items on your list as you try to get through it (because you definitely should!!):
    -Grill 21 (Gramercy Park): has everything on your list, very homestyle, delicious, and affordable
    -Tradisyon (Hell’s Kitchen, also has a stall in the Urban Hawker food court): closer to food “with flair” category but their adobo is awesome
    -Mama Fina’s (East Village): a place dedicated to sisig so you would get much more options. Not all sisig is the same, if you wanted to try it again! It’s not my personal fave dish either though, so I understand
    Then there’s Little Manila in Queens which is a street full of restaurants similar to Grill 21 and you can really get some affordable places that are homestyle with these classics.
    Thank you again for sharing your experience with Filipino food! I hope it’s not the end of the adventure 😊

    Your list ws definitely ambitious, but I was impressed you put it together. When you go to a festival (especially ones with foodtrucks) the prices will always be a bit high due to overhead costs - merchants also have to pay a vendor fee. However this was a good chance to see and taste a variety. I agree with the below comment that it is a good idea to go to a Filipino restaurant, but the problem is that there might be less variety if it is specialized. There is a large Filipino supermarket chain from the U.S. called "Seafood City". It is a wonderful Asian market. They have a front section with hot Filipino food (a lot of bbq). They also have some ready made options in the back. I think they might have seating now (post Covid). That is another affordable way to try Filipino food.

    You should have gotten a dipping sauce for the fish ball and pork skewers to offset the fishyness of the fish ball. Fish ball can be an acquired taste. Pork sisig is not authentic. It should be served in a sizzling plate that is why it’s called sisig which means sizzling.

    • @travelfuller
      @travelfuller  3 месяца назад

    Top Tips eating Filipino food.
    1. Rice is not optional - if it's served with rice, it's part of the dish and must be eaten together
    2. Sauces are not optional - same reason as number 1
    3. Condiments are not optional - same as number 1 and 2 but you may have to mix your own at the table. Don't be afraid to ask for help if you're confused on how to mix and use them.
