I was born and raised in south bay san diego and i remember seeing some filipinos growing up. I moved away for over 10 years and moved back to sd a few years ago and now i see a lot more of them especially when i go to costco. They're a fast growing population here. Love me some filipino menudo.
Loved this! Grew up in Mira Mesa and graduated MMHS in ‘98! My parents owned Danmar’s- thanks for the shout out!
My Ninang owned the store before your parents. It was called the DeFer shop back then. Short for Deguzman (my ninang) and Ferguson (the other owner - my ninang’s friend).
I lived in Mira Mesa for a brief period in the early 70’s as a kid.. and it’s amazing how the Filipino community has grown! Great content!
Shout out to Mira Mesa been here since 1975! graduated in 91 still live here👍
I grew up in Mira Mesa. 4th grade through 2 years after high school. Visiting there and seeing this video brings back a lot of memories. The lucky seafood used to be longs drugs.
This is a great presentation/information about the Filipino spots in Mira Mesa🙂 I knew about the bunch of Filipino spots in National City but man Mira Mesa might have even more than NC - thx for the info Jay👍👍
Thanks! National City may actually have more and its definitely more spread out throughout the town. I might have to head over down that way and film a vid there. Thanks!
Watching this because I used to live in Mira Mesa in 2005-2008 and it’s so nice to see this tour! Thank you~
I love how you showcase your Filipino community businesses. Good for you!
Sounds creepy but it's true, I stopped letting the thoughts of impossibilities lead me. As a parent with kids and with busy schedules I had to figure out a way to spend time with my kids (going on vacations, exploring the city with them and guide them when they're about to make hard decisions) but was quite difficult cuz I was running out of cash. I had to dig deep and find solutions to my expenses, hearing about the stock & Crypto market I decided to give it a try / invest and someone referred me to Emmanuel Benson.. trusting him was almost impossible not until our deal of $16,800 was successful, I really do owe him alot.. Don't you think it's high time you spent time with your family and look for a way to cover your expenses as well??

I lived in Mira Mesa from 1971 to December, 1978 when we moved out of CA. I lived there when there was nothing but a grocery store and a gas station. I was bused to school. I can’t believe how much it’s grown. I will need a map to find my old house.
WELCOME TO MIRA MESA FILIPINO TOWN COMMUNITY SAN DIEGO CITY I AM PROUD A FILIPINO NATION
Raised in Mira Mesa, love my community!
Hooray for the beautiful Mira Mesa our hometown! Awesome vlog Jaycation! Love it!💓💓💓
Love MM!
Oh damn that Mexican Filipino fusion
ill take u there next time u visit!
I lived for ten years right near your high school. Small world.
We’ve been here since 1980..Navy Family. Great tour. Blessings
SPECIAL GREETINGS to ALL HARD- WORKING 😍PRO- LIFE😍 FILIPINOS in MIRA MESA, CALIFORNIA.
Growing up in the 70s in MM, there were a ton of Filipinos back then, then most moved away to bigger houses in PQ, or NC.
id say maybe 2% left in MM. Really nothing like it was when most of the fathers were in the Navy at NAS Miramar
love that area.......pinoy power
My auntie and cousins used to live in Mira Mesa back in the 70/80s. Watched movies at that cinema 👍🏽. Funny adding vinegar on a burrito. Total Pinoy 👍🏽✌🏽✌🏽😀. Btw.... where did you get that cap?!
Mira Mesa has changed a lot since the 80's and now. I grew up and lived there from 1986 to 2014 and I'm a Marauder class of 1998. The original Filipino bakery shop was Betsy's Bakery right on the corner of where Seafood City is now. Mira Mesa has today become more of a melting pot culturally with Filipinos, Indian's, Vietnamese, Mexicans and other cultures. Sayulitas is ok but honestly thier food is to salty for my liking and they go more for size factor on their dishes. Mira Mesa back in the days did not have the roads that connect you to PQ on Black Mountain Rd passing Lucky Seafood and also Camino Santa Fe didn't connect to Miramar Rd. 2 big reasons for the horrible traffic congestion that plagues Mira Mesa now.
At Jollibee I used to get the Chicken Joy with rice and the lumpias. Its just wrong, but so good too!
Wowww
Heyyyy we were waiting for Uncle’s Turon! Haha Nice magnet collection too by the way. We watch your Vegas videos and I stumbled upon this vid. I grew up in Mira Mesa too! I moved away in ‘98 but it was nice to reminisce seeing the surrounding areas of the places you visited 🤙🏽
My office is around the corner from Manila Sunset. Clearly Scripps Ranch but Pinoy food outlets are always welcomed.
I used to work in the Seafood City building back when it was a supermarket called Alpha Beta. My first job!
Mira mesa always my home in US . I know every corner of Mira mesa been live in there . 22 years
Was just in Mira Mesa this past weekend. Love the city.
Great video! That jacket is the bomb!!!
Hi Jay
Thanks for the info. Today, we went Sayunita’s Cafe 86 and Nanay’s Best BBQ we got from your blog.
Then went back home.
Nice! How did u like the burrito?
Manila Grill is in Scripps Ranch. You go across the 15 and its Scripps. And Bobbi's Tailoring next to where you mention the hair studio is my favorite tailor in the area! I used to go to her my entire lifetime before i moved for school!!
Okay I want this tour when I visit!
u got it!
Saw your videos first when you did those Spain videos. Good to see you helping our community.
Mecca! I went to Mira Mesa '92. The area has changed completely since high school.
What!? Grew up there! Class of 88 MMHS..lol
Mabuhay kuya jay!!! Thanks for showing our fil-am side ...more power po to your vlog.hope on your future vlog ull show other cities of fil-am here in US like daly city,carson,honululo hawaii,miami florida po
Hi buddy im gonna be moving in that area can't wait . love your videos
Having moved to Mira Mesa in 1975, I can just say the city let it go to crap with growth. Mira Mesa Blvd must have some of the worse traffic in San Diego.
Thanks for making this video about my beloved Mira Mesa👍 I live in the bay now, but MM will always be my home❤❤❤ cool vid bro🤙 MMHS class of 97
Thanks for the vid bro. I'm an american born filipino living in San Diego for the most part of my life. Went to Montgomery High (alot of Filipinos here in the day). Now working in the west side of Mira Mesa -- biotech area. I had no clue about these filipino eateries and businesses. I will definitely frequent these establishments . . especially during breakfast and lunch.
Hi Ken! Nice, I played high school baseball versus Montgomery back in the day! It's great to support these filipino-owned businesses around town. I just discovered a filipino restaurant in Encinitas near the beach! I have to try that out. I appreciate the support!
Lived in Mira Mesa from 1971 to 1977. Went to grade school at Hickman Elementary. Not sure it’s still there. Don’t remember many restaurants there except for the McDonalds on Mira Mesa Bl and the Jack in the Box further down the road, closer to the 15. In ‘75 or ‘76, the Vons shopping center at Camino Ruiz and Mira Mesa bl was built. I think there were a couple restaurants there. There might have been a pizza place by the Jack in the Box. Now that I started writing, I’m beginning to remember more. Ha ha ha. Could probably write several pages now but won’t. Lol . Spent most of my time playing in the open space and canyons. Easily entertained.
We lived there at the same time, except we moved away in December, 1978. I remember all that you said. When we moved there, there was a Safeway, and a grocery store. They built a 7-11 near where I lived off of Camino Ruiz.
I lived on Calle Morelos just west of Camino Ruiz. Used to go to that 7-11 all time.
This is an amazing Filipino food guide, masarap!
Thanks Jacque! Do u like the filipino food in SD?
Why yes I do but I frequent national city more bc it’s closer
Lol I like his dads honesty he Max's is alright nothing to write home about 👍
Looks amazing kuya
This was so cool! Like little Manila, or little Dasma! 😆 loved it.
Thanks Bill! My hometown!
I appreciate the Danmar's Market shoutout! 🥰
My old stomping grounds! Love Pho Hoa Cali too!
Thats great MIra Mesa has a Filipino School already and a lot of Filipino businesses. More Filipino businesses!
Sending love from Boston to my San Diego peeps. I grew up in National City and Rancho Penasquitos.
You is a great commentator! 😆
' Wow can't wait to move from japan to san diego next year!🤩✈️
Yes , I use to leave there I have family still living there.
I miss Filipino foods. Thanks for the video. When was the last time you went to the Philippines? Would love to see Philippine blogs if you go home.
As someone who has been living in Scripps for almost 27 years, I consider that to be an intermediary space between Mira Mesa and Scripps. When I was growing up, I always thought of it as part of Mira Mesa due to it being on Mira Mesa Blvd. I didn't realize it was technically considered Scripps Ranch until I got older.
good call! i didnt realize it was scripps til i was older either
When I visited U S A and stayed in San Diego for the first time. I did not experience culture shock at all. Its an extension of the Phil including Fil driving habits. 😊😄😄
Sounds creepy but it's true, I stopped letting the thoughts of impossibilities lead me. As a parent with kids and with busy schedules I had to figure out a way to spend time with my kids (going on vacations, exploring the city with them and guide them when they're about to make hard decisions) but was quite difficult cuz I was running out of cash.

Mira Mesa for sure is Manila Mesa!! I grew up there and man you are giving me all the feels!! Jhigs!!! My brothers used to get his haircut there! Super OG!! How about when Mira Mesa mall had Mervyn's and Woolworth!!! Do you remember when Mervyn's was there and there was only the one OG Edward's?!!
Jhigs is a legend! OG for sure. I remember Mira Mesa Mall with the Miller's Outpost and the shack card store and VGA! Also remember the old edwards 4! haha
Great stuff Jay! How about a tour of National City since it's closer to me here in Chula Vista?

My hometown. 🙌🏽
gonna come back soon to mira mesa its hard to travel because of restrictions here in philippines
Although I was a Scrippie, I spent the majority of my time in Mira Mesa!! I'm loving your content!!
There used to be a Filipino dvd rental place inside Vinh-Hung as well. Cafe 86 used to be where Goldilocks was located.
It's Scripps Ranch east of the 15.
i wanna visit that filipino community park very soon
Just moved here! Good informative video!
Just subscribe Jay , keep up the great videos 👍🏾💯🇵🇭💯🤙🏽💯
Gotta love Manilla Mesa!
home sweet home!
Hello fellow Mira Mesan! 😁👍
Ha! I don't think I've ever seen anyone make a video about Mira Mesa. I literally live a mile away from all of these places. Vinh-hung has the best dimsum. Awesome that your shedding some light on the awesome spots here!
Thats what i noticed! I figured it was time to do a video on my hometown... I hope to do another that is more focused on Mira Mesa in the future. Thanks for watching! That was actually my first time inside Vinh-Hung haha
I live down Camino Ruiz and Aquarius
I was under impression, that National City is #1 Filipino community in San Diego?
National City is HUGE! I consider that the southside largest Filipino Community. Mira Mesa is definitely the largest north of the 8.
@@Jaycation Thanks for explaining, but what are the parameters of Manila Mesa?
NC is Deep OG Filipino City. A lot of my friends moved to Mira Mesa when they 'made it big'. Some of the originals of what are now in Mira Mesa started in National City.
How do I know? I was born in Chula Vista and raised in NC for 40 years! I was a regular customer at Tita's Kitchenette. My mom took kindergarten - 2nd Grade in Manila before WWII. She was almost in tears having Valerio's Pan De Sal for the first time in 50 years. Good memories . . .
National city is number # 1. Everything is in there in National city..hahahaha
We use to live on Kelowna ❤️ Mabuhay!
I'm glad Jollibee will be open soon, Here Be Barr produced a few videos about Little Manila in NYC (in Queens to be exact). One of the videos is about Jollibee and the food. Another one Here Be Barr eating a balut (he took a bet, in one his videos that if he will get 1000 likes, he will eat the balut on the video, he got 10,000 likes, so here we go).
Arianas behind you is amazing too! They are a fresh butcher and restaraunt. They get their meat from their farm in (I think they said) Ramona. There's also the best Mexican market (probably only) in Mira Mesa. MM is full of amazing family owned places! Also Banh Bao is there! Delicious.
Filipino the best in the world 🌎🌎🌎
Holy crap, I remember that theater. I became a tocino fiend after my first trip to the Philippines and Sayulitas has been helping me through it in between trips. I will have to do the vinegar next time I get the Tosilog Burrito.
National city still has the most Filipino they even highway 54 which is named Filipino /American highway
Spamsilog burrito for the win! Bionic burrito or fries is runner up. 👍
Man I miss going to the markets
The best burritos in San diego if you like Filipino Food and Mexican Food!!
Manila Mesa, haha I love it!
That white pacman shirt with blue writing is dope! I have that too!
AKA Mecca Mesa haha!
I have the blue version with white print too! lol
@@Jaycation Haha, same here bro. I think it was from 2010 if I’m not mistaken.
I made a video about that sea food city 2 months ago.
I saw my first movie there! waaaaa😭
Thats awesome!
🔥
Ironically I was there yesterday for some business haha and passed that same seafood city 😂
My Grandmother knew Jhigs, he would visit her once in awhile. 😁
Hey bro, try R&B crunchy pork sisig... its the bomb!
I agree we just went there yesterday and its only our 2nd time.
👍
Uncle Manny's food review of Max's is hilarious
haha Max's is so expensive here!
Chicken is too small at Max’s

Don't forget to mention the bugaon (Shrimp Paste) I probably spelled it wrong and patis (Fish Sauce). 😆
I was a freshman at MMHS 2020-2021
I went to neighboring MCHS :)
Hey Jay, did you know your Uncle Bob and I played basketball for an All-Filipino team sponsored by the owner of Mira Mesa Cinema.
I have cousins from there. As a child I spent a couple weeks in the summer there in Mira Mesa every year. As I got older and have my own family I now prefer San Diego over LA.
I'm glad you have fond memories of SD! Do you still visit?
@@Jaycation haven't been there in a year. My Auntie and Uncle still live there. Thier children moved on to Murrieta, Temecula areas. I go to West Covina every so often to get my Mira Mesa vibe fix lol.
@@DoritosResidue i love West Co! I have family there. I can see why your fam would move to murrieta and temecula.. a little cheaper!
@@Jaycation nice I just went there yesterday. My kids love Jollibee. Yeah San Diego got expensive but in my opinion the prices are more Justified in SD compared to LA because San Diego is more beautiful.
When Covid is over You should do vlog West Covina!
Hello Kumusta new friend here
Thank you, great info. Are these places in Vista or Oceansde? Would love.
Not as many filipino spots in vista or oside but theres a few!
@@Jaycation Thank you, my daughter- in-law and grandchildren will be visiting and I am looking for places, people and food she will enjoy. Your videos are a great help. She lives in Henderson/ Las Vegas area if you ever want suggestions for a travel video. There is a great “Seafood City” in Henderson.
Hi me and my husband is planning to move soon in Mira Misa, can you also feature some apartments there. Would be much appreciate 😊
Yo anybody have pictures of the old mira mesa mall fish store????....most amazing fish store
I’m a pinoy lives in Mira mesa

I'm thinking about moving here. How has it been since Google moved in?
Can’t wait to taste those “FILIPMEXICAN” Burritos, with vinegar and siling labuyo......

Thank you freind.
