First Impressions of Manila, Philippines 🇵🇭 | Intramuros Walking Tour | Filipino Street Food
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 27 มิ.ย. 2024
- Join us as we take a walking tour of one of the oldest neighborhoods in Manila, Philippines. This is the Intramuros - or walled city - district dating back to the 1500s. We began our day with a delicious hearty silog breakfast. Just down the street, all within walking distance, we were able to visit the historical San Angustin Church, the Manila Cathedral, and Fort Santigo. We even walked down into the dungeons of the Fort, which definitely gave us a creepy vibe. After exploring there, we headed back to the Rizal Park area for delicious Filipino street food. Granite enjoyed deep-fried quail eggs (known as kwek-kwek) and Kelly found a palm sugar tofu treat (called Taho).

ABOUT US
We are the Bags Packed Family: Jonathan and Kelly with our three children. We sold our home in Alaska, USA, eight years ago, and headed overseas. We are teachers and found fantastic teaching positions in Chennai, India. Two years later, we moved to the United Arab Emirates. Three years after that, during the beginning of the pandemic, we made the move to our current teaching jobs in Indonesia. We love traveling and finding adventures as a family. We hope that our travels will inspire and provide our children with the confidence to meet new people, try new foods, and enjoy learning a new language. We hope our vlogs will inspire you to get out and travel, too!

You said that you are not Catholic, but I was moved by your daughter's gesture as she approached the altar she bowed down. She's very respectful. You should be very proud of your children.
You may want to visit the Manila American Cemetery. It has a lot of history as well.
agreed! I was moved
For such a young age, respect for God is really there
You mentioned you aren't catholics but I really admire what your daughter did 18:36 even when she doesn't practice the same religion as us. It just shows she respects and appreciate the diversity in culture and religion in all the places she has been. You raised your kids well.
Nice gesture for your child bowing at the Church altar. I'm a former southern baptist here in Tx, USA turned Catholic last Easter. Its nice to see your child doing the gesture as sign of respect. I wish I could visit Philippines sooner or later
Thank you for sharing Sita really made my heart melt when she bowed to the cross and folded her hands in prayer well done to you both for bringing your children up with so much respect for religion I'm not Christian but respect all religion's take care of yourselves my beautiful family
Thank you so much for saying so, Fatima Ali. 🙏
This is such a beautiful words
Your kids are so behaved.. Makes travel a lot more easier
Thank you. The kids have definitely turned into good travelers!
Filipinos is very hospitable! Thanks for visiting our beautiful country! Hope you will comeback, sooner.💗
I've been posting back to back comments. Obviously binge watching on your videos. Your kids are very well behaved and amazingly respectful especially inside the church.
I'm loving this family for being very adventurous and respectful of others culture, God bless you guys and always be safe on your travels ♥️
Thank you so much! 😊
The boy got it right, using the spoon instead of the fork to scoop his food since most Filipino dishes are eaten with rice. He even mixed his To-Si-Log a little so he can get a little of everything with every scoop. The backside of the fork is used to push the food into the spoon.
Since this was filmed in January, you're probably elsewhere now but i'm hoping you get to feature in upcoming vlogs lechon. It's not a street food however, but it's our national dish. It's a whole pig roasted on an open fire & charcoal. There are variants; some just fry it, some just take the belly part and bake it in an oven-- most foreigners mistake those for the real one.
Love your vlogs. I also saw the Binondo Chinatown trip, it was very well researched. By late afternoon you've eaten a lot. I saw a vlog of a couple of boys, they were walking there all day looking for food and by 4pm saw the welcome arch and realized they weren't even inside Chinatown yet.
I love how the little girl bow and give respect as she came close to the altar.. 👍
We eagerly wait for your vlogs to drop. It really makes my day seeing this family travelling the world together. God bless them!
Manila is an awesome city to explore! Thank you for the blessing. 🙏
Thank you all for this very nice and very enjoyable video of Manila. And I think your video really showed Manila as the best city in Asia in terms of its genteel appeal and culture and history!
Your kids so lucky to have parents like you🎉
❤ I love that you’re all very adventurous with food. Wifey got what we call a Pinakbet- which a veggie (squash not sweet potatoes and coconut cream not curry) dish but we use dried fish for umami. She would have loved the thing you call soup right behind it. That was Laswa- that’s more vegan. Just a mix of vegetables in season boiled (again it might have a dried shrimp for umami).
It sad that the folks in the inner city are losing their knowledge of English. 😢
I’m Catholic and I thank you for being respectful even if you are not Catholic yourselves. Your kids are raised well. They kneel and I noticed your little girl even bowed in front of the Holy sacrament. Thank you for being respectful. People like you are always welcome in the Philippines. May your family be always be safe, healthy and may your family enjoy your travel not just in the Philippines but anywhere else in the world you happen to travel. But for now, Have fun in the Philippines 🇵🇭 😊🎉
The taho is not only for snack but also considered a breakfast to go, these are already in the streets early morning yelling TAHO. The brown sauce used is called arnibal which is basically brown sugar, water and vanilla extract(which is optional), the thin version of the arnibal is used for the sagot gulaman a cold drink which you can also see in street food stalls they are either flavored vanilla or banana…if your looking for local veggie soup, go for the laswa which the lady served earlier, it is made with squash, okra, eggplant and string beans
The kids are so adorable and well behaved totally enjoyed watching you guys
I am in awe how well behave are your kids. Good parenting…
I'm glad you experience all the street food from Philippines. Enjoy and always stay safe 😍
Its very good to see that you don't go to restau or fast food. That's the filipino spirit!
Thank you so much!
Amazing how much culture you're exposing your kids to and they all seem pretty cool about it. Goes to show how well you raised them........kudos!

@Bags Packed Family ..enjoy the Philippines 👌
Pilipino friendly and supported foriener vloger tahu delicious.god bless
Thank you 😊
Silog are considered as Filipino breakfast. They consist of a combination of entrée example PorkSiLog (Pork, Sinangag/garlic rice, itlog/egg) CornSiLog (Cornbeef, Sinangag/Garlic Rice, Itlog/Egg). Taho (soft tofu) also is know to be a breakfast food. Caramelize with syrup really good!
I absolutely love silog!
Also sanitation tip when eating at karenderyas, do not place your utensils on the table, sometimes, specially during busy hours, the people at the karenderya sometimes forget to clean the tables and so some mess are left behind by the previous customers. Or maybe sometimes they put soap on the towels used to clean the table and let it dry. So yeah.
Don't trust public tables so easily, always clean your table by yourself with some of their napkins. The same is to be done to utensils used.
Can't wait for the next vid. Are you going to the islands as well?
there has been a lot of family vloggers nowadays and i think its good that your children wil experience a new culture early in their lives ! enjoy Philippines

Longsilog= longganisa(sweet sausage), sinangag(garlic fried rice), itlog(fried egg)
Hotsilog= hotdog, sinangag, itlog

7:59 the cutlery are always soaked in hot water for disinfectant that`s why they are always wet
The Manila Cathedral was built in 1571 originally as a parish church. On December 21, 1581, its category was raised to a cathedral. Christ founded only ONE Church in AD 33, and only the Catholic Church can trace its roots back to Saint Peter in an unbroken line of papal succession. It was the Catholic Church that brought the message of Christ to men. It was the Catholic Church that civilized the world. For this, the Catholic Church deserves the gratitude of today's world. A Blessed Lent to you Jonathan, Kelly and wonderful kids. Deo Gratias !!! 💐💐💐
Thank you so much for the add information! God bless you.
Idiot catholic is anti-christ
New subscriber here, welcome to the Philippines
Can't wait to see moree from Indonesian 💙

Great you guys are trying all that stuff. The tofu drink is called 'Taho' one of my favorites.
Thanks for the Taho name. It was delicious!
That tofu with tapioca is made from silken tofu, the kind you put in smoothie. You have an amazing family and they're very adventurous and willing to try different foods. I just discovered this channel few days ago and I've been enjoying every episode.

I have been seeing your vlogs from a long time.. love from India 🇮🇳 ♥ tc family...!
Hi bags packed family!
First I must say, that I’m watching your videos for some time and I really like you all and your videos.
Few years ago I traveled for almost a year in the far east and i visited some of the countries that you visited as well. Brings up good memories.
Also I want to say that I really like your vibes in general. Hope you continue to make good content.
I do have to say - I highly recommend for you to go to orher islands In the Philippines, some of the most beautiful places on earth are just underneath your nose! I would be happy to share some recommendations from my travels in private message if you’d like.
Get out of Manila! 😂 so much to see!
Peace & love ✌🏼
If you are not a local, always buy bottled water. I was born and raised in the Philippines but have been living out of the country for a while now. Whenever I visit the Philippines, I always drink bottled water. Better be sure than sorry. It’s safe to eat food in the Philippines because it’s always served piping hot. Have fun in the Philippines 🇵🇭
silog(sinangag+itlog)or simply fried garlic rice with egg.. just add some meat to make something.. like porksilog..
and also it is so difficult for vegetarian to find veggies food here in PH coz mostly veggies food has ingredient of meat in it or fish
End the end, Kelly did pretty well with the veg options. The kids and I loved all the yummy meats!
Please go to CEBU,BORACAY and PALAWAN ❤
The star look vegetable is called winged and in filipino its sigarillas..
God bless your channel and your family...
Thanks for the info and the blessing!
I think you guys need to relax- Philippines is a very slow pace country ❤️😃
Oh I wish I am in the Philippines right now, and hoping to bump into you! I would be gladly to tour and introduce you to the name and description of the food. Yet, you guys nailed it and tried so many food in there! Miss coming back home ❤❤❤ I am currenty in Canada.
Uhuuyyyy 😁🔥🤗👍
It's getting really hot these days and being out all the time in Manila actually puts you at risk of heat stroke. If you want to experience a cooler climate near Manila, head to Tagaytay, which is about 2 to 3 hours away. :)
go to Quezon City memorial circle your kids will gonna love it! its a kids park.. 🎉❤
