Beef pares: The only love triangle I'm not afraid to dive into. 😂 If you'er Filipino what was your favourite Pares dish in this video? If you're a visitor to the Philippines which dish would you like to try?
that sizzling pares is what i want to eat. with extra togue. is the tapsilog sweet like pares? must sprout some mung beans soon---i miss it those outtakes! poor you. Metro Manila is pretty noisy for sure
As a filipino, i think our food is underrated because mostly carenderias and restaurants in the philippines dont pay attention to food presentation. Thats is why mostly filipino food doesnt look delicious even though its really good! I hope all restaurants in the philippines presents our food like this! Very appetizing! ❤
Great points my friend. Unfortunately there are also jackass western bloggers out there that have the palette of a chicken nugget and they insist on writing garbage blog posts about Filipino food because it didn't suit them.
@@PureDetour You can partly blame regionalism too. For food and cuisine to be recognized, it should be open to new frontiers. And we Filipinos are very adamant to change when it comes to food and representation. We're not Italians FFS. (them Italians earned it though). Not to mention that *most* canteens and eateries wouldn't give a rat's ass about quality as long as it's cheap. Heck, I've eaten a 20 cent Lot Cha (stir fry) in the sketchy streets of Phnom Penh and that tasted nice. If we could only put more effort in our food prep that'd be great. And we need to serve more varieties, we have countless regions with rich cuisines but we're stuck to the usual *fried* fare, adobo, bbq, and tomato based stews.
lol at the foot in the background. I don’t think that picture would have worked in an eatery here in the U.S. but it’s perfectly fine in the Philippines.
I have been eating spicy food all my life, Eliza. I'm 51 now. If I end up with throat issues now, I will be ok with that. Besides, If I had know I was going to live this long I would have taken better care of myself
Yes do be careful of chili oil. Some use the Korean or Taiwanese chilies which are substantially less spicy than bird's eye. Some due to bird's eye chilies being so plentiful and cheap in their area use that.
@@PureDetour Yikes! You are a certified chili head! I don't know if you got the real bird's eye chilies but be careful just the same. The real wild ones are rice grain small. Those are hotter than what passes as real bird's eye chilies. We also have Siling Duwag or Coward's Chili. It has no heat or spiciness whatsoever. Your food will have the subtle smell and taste of chilies without heat or spiciness... Usually mixed in sinigang and also adobo with lots of bell peppers, atsuete and siling duwag.
Mister, you're our guide now, your doing a public service 10 years from now forget it ,but a year from now even 5 years as long as your holding up well this is a great adventure there's a vlogger 123japan she's doing what exactly your doing almost 4 years now it's amazing always be brave and safe❤❤❤
Spice in the Philippines is often optional, so it's mainly served on the side as condiments or dipping sauces, this allows you to adjust it to your own personal liking.
Very much like in Vietnam that way. Unfortunately, there is no way to go any hotter than a birds eye pepper unlike countries like Thailand and Malaysia
@@PureDetour I've been to Cambodia and it's also the same. I wouldn't call it "unfortunate"... There are other flavors that tend to get overshadowed by too much spice.
If you were a fan of extremely spicy food you would call it unfortunate. I have that option in Thailand and Malaysia to make it extremely spicy if I want. I do not have that option here. Flavours only get overshadowed by spice when one cannot take the spice. I on the other hand can. A birds eye pepper to you may be deadly but to me it is like candy.
@@PureDetour I get that, but don't they provide fresh chilis at restaurants?... You could munch on them while eating your food, but I'm not sure if the chilis that are available in Manila are Thai chilis or Taiwanese chilis, they kinda look similar in shape and color.

Geoff himself is quite the dish 🤣
@TheBacolodFoodHunters, Ewww!
@@PureDetour 🤣🤣🤣
Very good video, made me wanna go there soon . Loved the bloopers bit too
I could only imagine how long it takes filming food vlogs in many Philippine eateries. Philippines is a vlogger’s challenge 😆
It is trying sometimes.😂
Love this vid! Oh I love pares and this is a must try in Mandaluyong. Thanks for always sharing. 😃
P.S. Love the outtakes touch in the end Geoff. 😄
Thank you, Mikko❤️
What happens to the food you didn't get to finish?
Do you have them wrapped for take out?
Just curious...
Sometimes it comes with me as leftovers and other times I give it to homeless people, grab drivers or security guards
that sizzling pares is what i want to eat. with extra togue. is the tapsilog sweet like pares?
must sprout some mung beans soon---i miss it
those outtakes! poor you. Metro Manila is pretty noisy for sure
The tapsilog does not have all of the pares sauce on it. Manila is noisy, but I oftne stuble over my words too😁
What’s the point of living if you can’t seldomly indulge💪🏼
Agreed Gil 😁

Which food in the background are you referring to? Are you talking about where they are cooking?
@@PureDetour typo, food to foot.
Judy anns Crispy pata in Malabon that is a must Try.
Better than livestock in QC?
Ladies and Gents... Jeff has done it again!! Awesome video bro!
You're f'ing awesome, Alan. I need you to know this!😁
@@PureDetour I got that good vibe from you my friend. Thats what the “Pure Detour” aura is all about! ❤️
Too spicy not good for your esophagus.
I have been eating spicy food all my life, Eliza. I'm 51 now. If I end up with throat issues now, I will be ok with that. Besides, If I had know I was going to live this long I would have taken better care of myself
Makes me hungry sir 😀
Sorry about that Chemmy😂
Oh yeah... "Pure Detour" super fan in the house!! nice presentation bro.. keep it up!!
Thank you so much my friend!
So yummy nice video
Thank you so much, Leonardo🙏
Red horse beer on the side
No beer at Doble Pares. If there had been, you can guarantee I would have had one😁
Eat a salad will you! 🤣
NO 😂

It was! Thanks for watching❤️

Hi Sumakwel,
I grew birds eye chili in my backyard in the Bahamas. i can eat them by the handful. The are not that spicy😁
@@PureDetour Yikes!

Reflecting on your thumbnail quote, dude, what a way to go!
I could not imagine a better way to go. 😁
Lol.. I have a jar of crispy garlic chili oil .. It's pretty potent. I love to add it to Ramen
Thats why you and I get along so well, Kevin😂

They do, but most of them are birds eye chili which are not all that spicy (at least to me). I can literally eat raw Carolina Reapers)
