i take my hat to you tater for walking that long, this is why you titled it solo adventure... And for the fruit you ate, it is called santol or cotton friuit in english, it's not poisonous....anyways keep safe brother...
What I like about you is you being straight forward & you don't sugar coat.Your videos are very raw & fresh. Stay safe & thank you for exploring the Philippines
I wouldnt walk that long. I admire your enthusiasm. The fruit is called santol, it's pretty sweet when ripe. I have never hiked St Mary mountain , Didnt know this exist.. i envy you. Buko halo halo is awesome.
Now THAT'S HALO-HALO :) And served in a coconut too! 🥥 When the Buko vendor said it's good for the stones, he meant kidney stones. But yeah, coconut juice is like natural Gato-rade. That's why you felt revived while drinking it. The views at St. Mary was great, but the place doesn't look too well-maintained. I guess they were hit hard by the pandemic and recent Taal eruption. It's good that it was overcast. I don't think you would have been able to walk that far if the sun was out. But yeah, i thought the rains finally left you alone Tate. The ending burst my bubble, lol. Btw, thanks for encouraging everyone to visit our humble country :)
Yeah I had no idea what he meant by the stones, I thought maybe the volcanic ash/rock made for very tasty coconuts or something haha. The rain stopped for as long as I needed it to thankfully 😂
That walk and your halo-halo just won my thumb and subs. Especially the walk, wc for me means you trust your surroundings and and the pinoys around you. Always ingat on your adventures, Jacob.
I just subscribed! Doing binge watch of your vids here in the country. I must say I salute you for walking that far, the view is amazing!!!! Thank you, I haven't been there but I felt like I was actually there with this vid. BTW, the fruit guy was selling you 20 pesos for the bigger fruit lol and it's called Santol. You ate it the right way haha.
Thr fruit is called Santol. The main part of the fruit there are the seeds which are coated with cotton like sweet juicy stuff that you can suck on. Once you get all of that stuff from the seeds, you have to spit the seeds out. Sometimes depends on the type, some inner part of the skin are sweet enough to eat but some varieties are too sour and bitter to eat. It's perfect to dip with salt.
I love your videos sir. Next time go to Misamis oriental, cagayan de oro to be specific. I lived there for a like 8 years. But now i currently live in San Diego CA. Wish you all the best 👍 and be safe.
I am from the Philippines and you make me want to go home right now ! Halo - halo by the lake . (You’re vids are the only ones I watch from start to finish. You keep it simple and real ) . I like it that way.
It is a good thing you have a very positive attitude; that’s why you are enjoying your travel; that was santol; you just eat the pulp if sweet you will enjoy it; they can pare the skin off and you can eat the rind which is often sour; glad you enjoyed the “ buko” you can also enjoy the pulp especially if it is a young coconut; “halo halo ( mix mix in English) is one of the pride of the Philippines; ENJOY!!!
That fruit is called "santol", the english name is cotton fruit, you can only find that in southeast asia. There's a very unique way of eating it. You peel the outer fruit until the pink pulp is exposed after that you score the pulp lattice wise, that's when you roll the peeled/scored fruit over rock salt. Only then can you eat it. Don't worry about Batangas people, the vendors there are honest and you actually got a good deal only because you would insist on getting a single piece which is a good strategy to try out things. Thank you for helping out my countrymen.
@@tatertravels no, no.... You ate it like majority of Pinoys do. Those who don't have the patience just take the seed and munch on it till all the flavor's gone. However, some Filipinos are up to the challenge of peeling it, scoring it all over then rolling it on rock salt.
Thats the rwal halohalo we talking about you got it bro.pretty look yummy delicious and the Taal volcano view along the lake are awesome this is pretty good place to stop by view. Enjoy your stay.
Good day Tater😊enjoying watching your videos, appreciate what you are doing like tasting all the food that we have and give your true opinions to it and also the scenery that you visits, thank u so much...keep safe always and take care...waiting for more videos...God bless
Hi, Sir Jacob or Tater. ☺️✌️. I've stumble upon your channel by accident and i love it.. It's like I'm traveling with you or should I say I'm also traveling. I like how you described the place especially the "food" if it's worth it or not. Already your fan sir. Subscribed already. Ty for your vlog. Ty also for visiting the Philippines. The buko halo-halo you have looks delish. That's also the halo-halo I want. Cheers.
Tate you did the right choice going the other side of the road when that goat stared at you. Those are like the alpha goats in the herd and they're kinda crazy! Back in the day we had a goat like that and they just charge for no reason and that horn feels like a truck hit you lol!
You certainly hit the jackpot on that phenomenal halo-halo, Tater! And what a place to stop by for some delicious food! Thanks for sharing. Will definitely go there when I visit the Philippines.
@@tatertravels yea I can't remember how long is tourist Visa. Filipinas don't get the same noise as in Vietnam or Thailand but through your lens, people are realizing how beautiful things are and people are friendly and all speak English. Next time try to visit Cebu.
Where is that Tropical Buko Halo-Halo spot? I’m trying to find it in the comments. You sure hit the jackpot on that one. I’ll definitely go there when I go to Tagaytay, hopefully it will still be there.
IF YOU WANT A REAL GOOD AUTHENTIC HALO HALO GO TO MANILA HOTEL OLDEST HOTEL IN MANILA….A LITTLE BIT PRICEY BUT THE BEST IN TOWN….👌EVERY Time I VISIT THE PHILIPPINES I ALWAYS GO THERE TO EAT AND GET MY HALO HALO ✌️👋🙌👌👍👍👍
Please go to islands, beaches u know, ur gonna appreciate the view more. I live in Dinagat Islands, and there are beaches just minutes away and ur gonna see the view of landscapes for free. I'm actually surprised why people travel tagaytay just to see the views of the landscape whereas here, it's near and free. Lol
Geez, that was some adventure, a hike to an unfamiliar place all alone and don't have no idea which way to go to. Well it's a good exercise though. 👍 Stay safe man, more adventure. Btw you could have enjoyed more buko meat if you told the guy to break that buko open after drinking the juice. Lol
Bro, that’s a legit halo halo. The halo halo at the peninsula hotel is supposed to be the best around but it looks nothing compared to that. Keep it up!
Oh yeah he’s real, I know Johnny Walker is a Rum or it’s a Whiskey 😂But I know the Real Johnny Walker here in California, He Comes to DENNYS RESTAURANT EVERY Night and DRINK 🍺 ALL Night 😆😄😂✌️🙌👌💕
That fruit is called "santol" you are supposed to cut off the layer of peel and chew it. Watching you I am salivating. We pair it with salt. He was telling you 50 pesos for 1 kilo, and the 20 pesos each is the bigger ones. ☺
Santol is a heavy fruit. When he said P50, it’s P50 per kilo. If it’s the big ones like the Bangkok santol, only 2 or 3 pieces would already be a kilo that’s why he priced it at P20. I would have priced it at P25 or P30 because you’re breaking the bunch/grouping hehe. I think he didn’t have a scale with him. At home, I pickle them with salt and sugar and water for a week (after peeling the outside part but still keeping part of the cover flesh). Or I make them into santol juice.
that orange fruit is a santol. its not really commercialized fruit but its very famous to the locals. especially to kids. and you do not eat the seeds. hahahahahaha thanks.
The fruit is SANTOL... You simply suck the seeds juice. Smaller seeds could be swallowed, while, it's up to your capacity to swallow with the bigger one. Santol is a tree-fruit.
Wow...that Mt. Taal view is amazing ❤️ I think you’re!the 1st vlogger I’ve seen to feature that area. How many miles did you walk? When you bought the fruit (santol) you did it right. The halohalo looks so good and refreshing! There’s a perfect cone shape volcano Mt. Mayon in the Bicol Region where Survivor filmed maybe 2 Seasons. Enjoy the 🇵🇭 and take care.
Respect to your arduous walk, journey to the mountain, brother. That's a good cardio exercise. What a day to burn calories👍 but what I wanna praise you more about are the hyperboles you used to express your self up like the "capital punishment & the sistine chapel",😄😄😄 you made my day, brother. You've been drenched by your sweat and got refreshed by the breeze and rain on your way back to your hotel. Perfect, my friend! 👍👌🤗😊
The fruit is called Santol. The usual way of eatin Santol is to peel off the skin and sprinkling some salt on it before taking a bite at the flesh and the seed. But it's best eaten with vinegar seasoned with salt, ground pepper, chopped chili, onion and garlic. Santol is also used to add sourness to dishes like pork, beef, fish and vegetables. It's also made into sweets, cooked and processed snacks.

Sipping the coco juice to the bottom and leaving everything by the road, - - but keeping the straw for recycling. I LOVE THAT !!

Dude that's one hell of an adventure + your freaking humor i love it my mom couldn't stop laughing

Filipino here. Crazy how you just walked all the way down hahaha. Would love to meet you around since I walk around a lot too haha. Cheers man!
hoping for meet and greet one day

Tater, great cardio. WoW insane Halo Halo. Well done. 👍
Yeah the exercise was great, maybe a few hundred more of those hikes and I'll be set 😂
Thats a santol fruit sour a bit.the inner skin of santol can eat also or either make it a santol jam is good
You certainly hit the jackpot on that phenomenal halo-halo, Tater! And what a place to stop by for some delicious food! Thanks for sharing. Will definitely go there when I visit the Philippines.
Your amazing as Filipino American please stay longer than 2 months
I'd like to, but I do have to return to the USA soon. At least for a little while
@@tatertravels yea I can't remember how long is tourist Visa. Filipinas don't get the same noise as in Vietnam or Thailand but through your lens, people are realizing how beautiful things are and people are friendly and all speak English. Next time try to visit Cebu.
Unique halo halo with coconut. Wow what a masterpiece and it looks so delicious😄
That first fruit that you picked up is Santol.. the vendor should’ve felled the top skin first
I love santolll
❤❤❤❤❤
It looks like you've lost some weight since you left LA! That fresh food is doing you wonders! Here's to happy, healthy travels!!
Good food and long walks 😊
New subs . mabuhay. welcome to.our beautiful country.
Welcome aboard! I appreciate you 🤗
Thank you for showing that place i havent been there.
Beautiful
Love your energy Tater. Beautiful views you treated us to. Hope to see the same in person.
Where is that Tropical Buko Halo-Halo spot? I’m trying to find it in the comments. You sure hit the jackpot on that one. I’ll definitely go there when I go to Tagaytay, hopefully it will still be there.
Woah that was a long walk… ‘twas nice walking with you virtually 😀
You're welcome to walk virtually with me anytime!
Quite an adventure😍😍😍 Thanks for the video🥰
Props my man Tater! Great videos! Did you know that was a Volcano across the lake?
Santol,,,,,,I eat that when I was a kid,,it souare, 14:30
You got me here Jacob, that halo-halo looks really yummy. Oh btw i am from TX. Keep safe brother.
SANTOL - the food you thought as poison. It tastes better when dabbed on salt.
You must also Try Baler, Aurora in the North
I'm glad you finally found your "Classic" Halu Halo. 😉😁
Enjoy your days in Tagaytay sir!
Oh one please ask for Fruit Salad or Buko Salad or Sweet Young Coconut Salad. Ingats
That halo-halo looks amazing. I gotta get some when I visit next month.
If you go to Ton Jovi's resort, let them know Tater sent you!
@@tatertravels Will do! Thanks!

@10:45, very itchy. Lol. That's @12:15 it's called "santol" fruit bro.
You can probably do a Bataan Death March reenactment if you like hiking. Try the Halo-Halo at Chowking, Mang Inasal and Jollibee too.
The mountains at front of the lakes is an actives volcano that we called taal volcano.
there's a secrete on your halo halo you missed ^^
Please go to islands, beaches u know, ur gonna appreciate the view more. I live in Dinagat Islands, and there are beaches just minutes away and ur gonna see the view of landscapes for free.

Hats off to you for walking so much in rain and heat, don't matter you proven to be consumate "Johnny Walker" of all vloggers.

It's Santol fruit you bought on the roadside going down the lake. You did it right. Just spit out the seed. We love Santol. 🙂

That’s a good find Tater 👍
Safe travels tater

Good thing foreigners now can bargain. 👍🏻👍🏻
Dont swallow the seeds!
