    Hey Ross, Jonathan here, your guide in Intramuros with Bambike. You should've told me you're going to feature Binondo as well! I recommend you go check the Chinatown Museum for the in-depth history of the area the next time you're in town. Cheers! 😃

    What a brilliant video! That final spot with those mouthwatering noodles looks absolutely irresistible. Definitely adding it to my bucket list. Those dishes bring back fond memories of my time in Nanjing; they're exactly what I've been craving!

    Amazing video! Fun fact: I nearly died eating a Rose Apple because I didn’t know it’s the fruit that cashew nuts come from!

    Visited last year but ended only eating at 1 place and then buying pasalubong at Eng Bee Tin because the queues were insane! Coming back sometime soon and will defo try harder this time. 😂 At which time of the day do you suggest visiting to avoid the long queue and not going home hungry? Hahaha

    • @FirstPiper
      @FirstPiper  3 месяца назад

      I reckon go early on a weekend, like 10am and then you'll get in there ok without the queues. Or just a weekday?!

    the chinese massacre was instigated by LIMAHONG a chinese pirate to rebel against spaniards and take over luzon to establish a chinese kingdom. but Filipinos, Japanese Samurai Christians and Spaniards eventually put down the rebellion hence the massacre ensued after their defeat. One among many dark chapter of colonialism in the philippines.
