actually , im an Ilocano , raised and born in north Luzon but currently working here at Bacolod City , ang ya'll men all their food are stunning , like legit ❤❤ WESTERN VISAYAZ CUISINE ❤ ,
I’m from Negros and I must say that FEATR did a great job in showcasing Iloilo dishes. This is the kind of vlog that we like. Feels authentic and nostalgic especially these foods are so similar with our dishes here. Kudos to Erwan who ate for hours and hours! Kudos to your team for coming up with this feature.
Thank you for this well deserved feature of Ilonggo cuisine, FEATR! Deserved because Iloilo City is now the Philippines’ official nominee for UNESCO’s Creative City for Gastronomy!
Never thought the day would come for our food to be showcased authentically in a well known channel. As an ilongga, I really appreciate all that you do to include our city. Thank u for always sharing the Philippines in your channel
Never seen anyone showcased Iloilo in this light. I’m from Iloilo born and raised but watching this video makes me feel Im foreign. 😅 Thanks FEART worth watching and subscribing too 🫡💜🫶
Try grilling mushrooms in "labog" wrapped with banana leaves. Pair that with "malidu" rice and "pinakas" dipped in "sinamak"; then eat "kinamot-style". Super duper!
I lived in iloilo when i was 7-10yrs old. I still remember dishes like ginataang langka with pork, soup with batuan and batchoy. Moved to Mindanao & Luzon but never had those ever since. Wish to go back someday.
I like when you said "there's a lambing touch in the food" which is really true. ROBERTOS SIOPAO, ALICIA'S BATCHOY are a must try. If there is next time try to visit the old churches of iloilo. I am so proud that you featured Iloilo. I am proud to be ilonggo.
It's almost a 30-minute video but it felt like it is just 5 minutes. This is just spectacular. I love that you featured other cuisines and not just batchoy which I always see from vloggers coming to Iloilo. It's a great way to showcase that Ilonggo dishes are at par or even beyond some of the dishes from other parts of the country. Thank you for this Erwan.
I'M SO HAPPY LOLA NORA'S EATERY WAS FEATURED IN THIS VIDEO! I used to go to University of Iloilo and Nora's was just across the street from my school, we are a half day class only and after class before going to the gym, I always eat at Nora's to get that homemade taste and feel at home kind of vibe especially from the Lola's serving the place. This video definitely took me down memory lane, thanks to Erwan and the staff for featuring our beloved city of love.
Hi Erwan. I'm from Santa Barbara and my wife is from Cavite but we both live abroad. Last month I brought her together with her family to Iloilo and they enjoyed the food so much. Thanks for raising awareness about Ilonggo cuisine and I hope you loved your stay there.
Im a bacolod ilonggo and i experienced iloilo last year. Mgnda ang iloilo. Nakakaproud as an ilonggo. Both our cities are beautiful and has many foods to choose from.
Why do we negrense call ourselves ilonggos when we weren't raised and do not live in Iloilo? If our ninuno came from Iloilo, isn't it na they're the ones who are ilonggos lang? Pero kita who were born and raised in Negros, I don't think we're ilonggos. They have a different manner of speaking and way of life than those who were born and raised in Bacolod or Negros.
I was smiling the whole time watching the video. I'm born and raised in Aklan, but having this video makes me miss more the Panay Island! Indeed Iloilo is calling! Thanks Featr!
Awesome to watched that #ilonggo cuisines are being appreciated by one of the best chef and food critic in the country today. Thanks a bunch #Erwan for featuring us on your channel. So raw and this humbles us.
That is true Ilonggo hospitality. We never take no for an answer when it comes to feeding our guests! That's how we show appreciation and ❤. We keep saying kaon ta ( let's eat, kaon na (come and eat), or always ask you ka kaon ka na ( have you eaten yet?)? So when this happens, just have a small bite of everything, or we will be sad if you refuse. 😂
Thank you Erwan for visiting this part of the country. Now you know Iloilo and Western Visayas as a whole *WILL* give Pampanga a serious run for its money as a culinary destination annnnd well of course anyone can do a beach side trip on any of the provinces as an added bonus . 😉😉 And *kudos* to Chef Tibong for such a perfect culinary guide and patiently explaining on this episode whats being served on the table. And oh I forgot, Thank You Chef for elevating Ilonggo cuisine to the national counciousness. I often see or read about him doing some explainer on Ilonggo cuisine. I dunno what's exactly is next for this series but there are things to see and eat on each of this region's provinces. 👍🏻👍🏻 on this episode 😉!!
Hello Erwin been watching forever, How can I purchase Chef Rafael Tibong Jardeleza Jr. cook book 📚. I live in the USA and it’s difficult to purchase a treasured taste.
I love Ilonggo food,anywhere you go the food is delicious and it's not expensive either. I wanna go back, with a side trip to Guimaras and the wonderful mangoes ❤
Dried fish goods are a staple in my baon list everytime I visit my relatives in Manila, alongside packets of known Ilonggo sweets, i.e. piyaya, biscocho, galletas, etc.
Ayy ambot! Simply lang pero Namit namit gid yah mga pagkaon sa Iloilo 😋. Thank you Erwan and team Featr for featuring not so tourist-popularly known Ilonggo eateries. Feels so glad and proud! Thanks to Chef Tibong as well for the explanations and guide which may help others to want go and try these Ilonggo dishes 🙌🏼👏🏼👏🏼😍🤩🥳
You’re definitely right Erwan, food in Iloilo is so varied in flavors, and their chicken is undeniably one of the best. Nothing fancy only the basic condiments is enough to satisfy your palate. Thank you for sharing these gastronomic adventure, feel like going back to Iloilo again… Unforgettable Mae
E di WOW! Dahlia said!😅 Thank you for showing us the richness of Iloilo! BRW Bukaka is Kamatsile in Tagalog I love it fruit that’s part of my childhood. Now that I live in California for 5 decades I miss them. God bless and keep on giving us all the best part of the Philippines cuisine!🙏♥️🙏
I do not usually leave a comment but I cannot help not to leave one on this. So happy that Iloilo is finally feautured because it deserves to be. Will defo try some of the featured foods when in vacation there. I am so proud to be an Ilonggo. Thank you Chef Tibong and thank you Erwan/team😊 Ilonggo gid! City of Love❤
Kudos to Chef Tibong for bringing you to the places that represents what Ilonggo homemade cooking truly is. Makes me missed Authentic Ilonggo food and my hometown.
Wow!! My hometown ‘Iloilo ang banwa ko’ FEATRD! 😍😍😍 Thanks for showcasing and tasting Ilonggo food Erwan and team. 😋 The native chicken, kinilaw, all the food…. I suddenly miss home ❤ Next time try Tatoy’s 😏
..cant wait to visit my family in iloilo, grabe yung pag lalaway ko sobra! I make sure bibisitahin ko yang mga place na yan!! You are such amazing food lover blogger, clever host, chef etc!!!
Im from Bacolod. As Ilonggo myself I love Iloilo food. Most of the food are very similar to Bacolod dishes. Daw guin gutom ako sa mga food ah. Sabroso!
Thank you for featuring iloilo city esp our ilonggo cuisine. Thank u for appreciating the ilonggo way of cooking. Ilonggo just used simple ingredients that will enhance our meat, fish, chicken n seafoods but that is the best for us. The simpler the better🙂❤️
Thanks Erwan and Featr for featuring ILOILO. Keep promoting filipino cuisine and tradition for the whole world to see. Bless you and miss my hometown too
My Lolo is half spanish and this is his hometown. I never got the chance to visit this place but I hope I could visit iloilo after I graduate. I want to visit some of these restaurants.
This is made me proud that I am an ilonggo. Miss my hometown very much. Thank you sir erwan to feature our city of love #iloilo God bless you and your wonderful family keep safe always❤❤❤
Gotta love the work put into these videos... if non-Filipinos ask what Filipino food is, just recommend this channel.. great job showcasing the wealth of dishes we have in the Philippines
Living in Iloilo for 4 years throughout college has taught me that the best food in Iloilo can be found in the carenderias, some of which have been present for decades. You can go to place that serves La Paz batchoy since the 50's to a carenderia that specialized in fried chicken since the 40's all in the same area. What I miss most is eating bingka in Molo Plaza while peoplewatching.
Thank you erwan!! You finally featured food of Iloilo City. I am so happy that you went to Nora’s eatery. It is our family’s favorite eatery if we go to the city from our hometown, Passi City. I felt bad that you did not taste adobado alimosan which is my favorite. But I am glad you had sinabawan fish head , inihaw na baboy, the ensaladang puso ng saging and the radish and ampalaya salad. The eatery is really the place that people from all walks of life would eat before Tatoy’s came in the picture. Now you know our family’s secret. 😂😂 You need to try Sobriedo’s batchoy (batchoy ni jasmine) in sta. Barbar, seafood at Tytche and in Bebot and Mila’s. In the coastal. Siopao in kongkee and their crispy bihon. Also please explore the foods of the province of Iloilo, to our hometowns. We also have our distinct foods that we can call our own. Enjoy!! ❤❤
@@featrmedia thank you for reading my comment. I can’t wait for the part 2! I am also happy that you have eaten our diwal and the rawits. Frankly I haven’t tastes the rawit’s chicken. I love breakthrough as well. Hehehe
I'm from Santa Barbara. Try Batchoyan sa Ilawod next time you drop by. It's a humble batchoyan next to the basketball court in Little Baguio. Don't miss it!
living here now in Manila, food back home in Iloilo is really just different. especially yung mga sabaw na main dishes is cooked differently. my fave for sure is the nilaga, our own version of puchero, KBL, tinola, our home’s staple pinamalhan, and the seafood of course, it could be just crabs and dried fish for days back in my hometown. so happy that you visited local eateries and not just get some batchoy and stuff 😅 but overall such a great docu. “kagwapo gid ya bala sang bana ni Anne” hahaha
We grew up with homecooked food, even in our carinderias. We always look for home-cooked meals. Laswa and sinugba whenever I go back home. They say Ilonggos are among those who are the hardest to please when it comes to food because we grew up with one of our parents who cooks, with the recipes passed on for generations.
I miss Iloilo. 😢 It’s true that Ilonggo food is not too salty/sweet, the taste comes in between. FEATR should try buko pie at Nang Palang’s at Trapiche, Oton. Also, kansihan carenderia/stalls are everywhere in Iloilo, so pls try pata and patotin. Don’t forget KBL (kadyos, baboy, langka) as well very traditional! ❤
Ilonggos aim to achieve umami taste. We don't cook food sweet, sour or bitter but we mix them. It takes time to master mixing those tastes to achieve the flavor we desire
Aroz de valenciana or just valenciana like we call it are staple in parties from birthdays to fiesta celebrations. And not just in the cities but in the smaller baranggays of different towns in the province. It’s a food that brings back a lot of memories too. Together with the molo soup which is my lola’s specialty. I miss my hometown even more after watching this. 🥺
Amazing! I'm growing homesick with all these places we always frequented working in the nearby government office then. Thanks for featuring Iloilo City Erwan. More power!
The balance of flavors and the culinary finesse in every dish epitomized the richness of Ilonggo culinary heritage. A visit to Iloilo is incomplete without indulging in these traditional delicacies that pay homage to the region's vibrant culture and history. Thank you for this amazing food vlog! Keep it up! Proud Ilonggo here.
I brought my manila friends in a restaurant here in Iloilo and they love all the dishes, they said ilonggo food are so good and much cheaper than the food in Manila. And they definitely want to comeback again because of our food here ♥️
Yes I only saw these all in erwans vlog. My husband is an ilonggo but I never been here yet. I want to come here in this amazing food trip places. I love it.
I used to travel around Visayas a lot due to my previous job, and Iloilo and Bacolod have always been my fave stops where you can indulge in quick gastro adventures.
Thank you Erwan for really showing it in details- I am from estancia one of the best supplier for all seafoods and can attest that it is one of the most delicious food truly came from Iloilo ❤❤❤
Thank you Erwan for featuring Iloilo! The province/city has so much to offer. Watching this made me miss Iloilo more. Hope you had a lovely time while in Iloilo, pls visit more often and bring Anne and Dahlia too! ❤️❤️❤️ looking forward to the next videos! 😊
Galing naman ni Erwan! Pinapakita niya sa video lahat ng food choices from affordable na pang-masa to expensive na sosyalin. Meron para sa lahat ng budget ng travellers. Iloilo will be on my travel list cause of this video. ❤
1:58 I used to live in a Hiligaynon speaking part of Mindanao. Thought this one is called "Kamunsil" and the term "bukaka" is used as a replacement for the word "hinog" when describing the fruits.
I may sound bias but watching something about Western Visayas, I can't take my eyes on it. No intention of skipping nor stop watching it. So proud Ilongga here! Thanks Featr for featuring Iloilo. p.s. Central Market was my go-to place when I was in college. Mercados really help me relaxed, sounds weird but I really love going to markets. Hihi
I hope you enjoyed not just the food but the Ilonggo hospitality as well. Thank you for paying my hometown a visit and for showcasing Iloilo Cuisine! Hats off to you Sir Erwan!
I enjoyed the whole video, very informative and fun (medyo nakakagutom nga lang 😂). It made me appreciate the distinct food culture of Ilonggos. Ilo-ilo is definitely a bucket list. Thanks, Featr!
my father is an ilonggo. my mom is a great cook but i love how his version of adobo is made (more on sweetness than savory). and yes! they're malambing. they get mad but they still sound sweet 🤣
madamo guid nga salamat sir erwan. my hat's off to you for doing justice in showcasing the ilonggo cuisine. as a proud ilonggo, you made me prouder. thanks ulit sir. ❤
I miss Iloilo. Currently living in 🇨🇦. Whenever I meet folks from other provinces here in Canada, they always ask, “oh what is your city known for?” and I always tell them, just come and visit and I will give you a gastronomic tour. Next time I’ll add that they need to come visit in stretchy pants! 😂
the food haven capital of the philippines like no other Im proud of my City❤❤❤ a City that rich in history and herritage where the famous. Ilonggos always stands out in many things
whenever i watch this segment i always put it in my bucketlist! i really love seeing this part of the Philippines i didnt know about. my country is reall beautiful ❤
how can Erwan look so sweaty and still feel fresh-y? hahaha. i hope the second part would FEATR food from the province. Let's go, Iloilo! fantastic episode btw.
Amazing and great food finds. Simple and delicious yet abundant..... Kudos..... From the city of love myself appreciate this much. "Manamit....dali na sa Iloilo ang pagkaon saboroso"
Thank you Erwan for visiting my hometown. I missed my Lolo and Lola's grilled seafoods and all the amazing Ilonggo dishes. I live in Bulacan now and will probably have a vacation next year to enjoy our very own authentic Ilonggo cuisine.
Better done than what Bourdain did. WHY no subtitles at the long interview at Beige?! I live in Iloilo and eat a lot of those dishes right at home. The freshness and abundance here is mind blowing. Nicely done (retired doc filmmaker here).
Looking at Erwan eating all this dishes from Iloilo,how he explained it ,my mouth starts to salivate and it’s like I can taste all those flavours that I grew up with.
Cyrils...!!! The best place to eat sa Central Market. Dumduman ko gid ang good old days dira kami naga pamahaw, panyaga. The Igbante family really provides a home cooked feeling sa ila food.
FINALLY! Batwan over sampaloc anyday. Migrated to Iloilo 5 years ago. will never regret it. Best food in the Philippines. The ilonggos know food!
actually , im an Ilocano , raised and born in north Luzon but currently working here at Bacolod City , ang ya'll men all their food are stunning , like legit ❤❤ WESTERN VISAYAZ CUISINE ❤ ,
Iloilo is the best place to live. Urban planning is immaculate. I hope I can return home and retire in Iloilo - banwang pinalangga.
Ilonggo cuisine is so underrated. I always thought Iloilo is the culinary capital of the country because of its well balanced dish.
Not even close on kapampangans cuisine lol
@@fckyowassu lol 😂
@@sensitivityzero bai na bai HAHAHAHA
@@fckyowassPampanga food over rated
Basta Ilonggo food manamet gid😋😋😋
I’m from Negros and I must say that FEATR did a great job in showcasing Iloilo dishes. This is the kind of vlog that we like. Feels authentic and nostalgic especially these foods are so similar with our dishes here. Kudos to Erwan who ate for hours and hours! Kudos to your team for coming up with this feature.
Familiar po kasi bcoz we are just the same people separated by 2 islands...
Thank you for this well deserved feature of Ilonggo cuisine, FEATR!
Deserved because Iloilo City is now the Philippines’ official nominee for UNESCO’s Creative City for Gastronomy!
Way to go Iloilo
Good luck
As an Ilonggo student, I must say that the food here is never disappointing:) cheap or expensive, the quality is still good.
My husband and I can attest to the unique experience, food and nature Iloilo has to offer
Good choice!
Ahh Ilonggos are well represented in this video 😁 thank you featr
Thanks for watching!
Iloilo offers the best food. You'll keep longing for it. I have been waiting for Ilonggo dish to be featured this way. Iloilo has so much to offer.
i like this guy (Erwan), hindi siya maarte at hindi mayabang. Maraming Salamat sa pag respect mo sa aming Probinsya sa iloilo❤️🙏❤️
Never thought the day would come for our food to be showcased authentically in a well known channel. As an ilongga, I really appreciate all that you do to include our city. Thank u for always sharing the Philippines in your channel
Never seen anyone showcased Iloilo in this light. I’m from Iloilo born and raised but watching this video makes me feel Im foreign. 😅 Thanks FEART worth watching and subscribing too 🫡💜🫶
Try grilling mushrooms in "labog" wrapped with banana leaves. Pair that with "malidu" rice and "pinakas" dipped in "sinamak"; then eat "kinamot-style". Super duper!
I lived in iloilo when i was 7-10yrs old. I still remember dishes like ginataang langka with pork, soup with batuan and batchoy. Moved to Mindanao & Luzon but never had those ever since. Wish to go back someday.
You have to go to an Ilonggo dominant neighborhood in Mindanao like Southern Cotabato.
I like how eloquent Erwan is. In a sea of food vlogger wannabes, he's a breath of fresh air.
Good feature..Tara na sa Iloilo..kaon ta..
I just wanna clarify that he is not one of the wanna-be... he is top-notch.
I like when you said "there's a lambing touch in the food" which is really true. ROBERTOS SIOPAO, ALICIA'S BATCHOY are a must try. If there is next time try to visit the old churches of iloilo. I am so proud that you featured Iloilo. I am proud to be ilonggo.
Love that you tried the carinderia because this is where you can eat the authentic ilonggo dish
Chef Tibong reminds me so much of Chef Claude Tayag, you can really feel the passion with how they describe every bit of ingredients
I'm from Negros Occidental but had my college education in Iloilo. I sooo miss the food and the simple people of Iloilo❤❤❤
It's almost a 30-minute video but it felt like it is just 5 minutes. This is just spectacular.

Hello Erwin been watching forever, How can I purchase Chef Rafael Tibong Jardeleza Jr. cook book 📚. I live in the USA and it’s difficult to purchase a treasured taste.
I love Ilonggo food,anywhere you go the food is delicious and it's not expensive either. I wanna go back, with a side trip to Guimaras and the wonderful mangoes ❤
Stay tuned and get some ideas for your next trip!
This channel deserves more recognition. Erwan and his team's effort is 💯💯💯
To the person who named the dish chicken biga-biga. You are a legend po haha.
HAHAHAHAHAHA
When I went to college in Iloilo the dish that I would love to taste again is Callos… love it!!!
Dried fish goods are a staple in my baon list everytime I visit my relatives in Manila, alongside packets of known Ilonggo sweets, i.e. piyaya, biscocho, galletas, etc.

Thanks for this guide! I’m asking my friends from Iloilo to take me and my family on an eating tour. The food looks amazing!
Iloilo City may not offer that much wild adventures like any other cities in the Philippines but it can definitely give you great FOOOOOOOOOOOD.
Who needs wild adventures when you can eat this well?
Wow!! My hometown ‘Iloilo ang banwa ko’ FEATRD! 😍😍😍
Thanks for showcasing and tasting Ilonggo food Erwan and team. 😋
The native chicken, kinilaw, all the food…. I suddenly miss home ❤

Welcome to my province. Iloilo is unstoppable when it comes to food. Thank you for this feature
Im from Bacolod. As Ilonggo myself I love Iloilo food. Most of the food are very similar to Bacolod dishes. Daw guin gutom ako sa mga food ah. Sabroso!
Because People from Bacolod were originally from Iloilo.
Thank you for featuring iloilo city esp our ilonggo cuisine. Thank u for appreciating the ilonggo way of cooking. Ilonggo just used simple ingredients that will enhance our meat, fish, chicken n seafoods but that is the best for us. The simpler the better🙂❤️
Thanks Erwan and Featr for featuring ILOILO. Keep promoting filipino cuisine and tradition for the whole world to see. Bless you and miss my hometown too
My Lolo is half spanish and this is his hometown. I never got the chance to visit this place but I hope I could visit iloilo after I graduate. I want to visit some of these restaurants.
Iloilo has one of the best food you can eat. Especially with seafoods, you can never go wrong. Lots and lots of foods that you must try. Manamit gd ❤
This is made me proud that I am an ilonggo. Miss my hometown very much. Thank you sir erwan to feature our city of love #iloilo God bless you and your wonderful family keep safe always❤❤❤

And the linutik is also my favorite 😍 😋
Managat is our choice of fish as well. We would grilled the body and sinabawan the head. ❤️
I'm from Santa Barbara. Try Batchoyan sa Ilawod next time you drop by. It's a humble batchoyan next to the basketball court in Little Baguio. Don't miss it!

Amazing! I'm growing homesick with all these places we always frequented working in the nearby government office then. Thanks for featuring Iloilo City Erwan. More power!
The balance of flavors and the culinary finesse in every dish epitomized the richness of Ilonggo culinary heritage. A visit to Iloilo is incomplete without indulging in these traditional delicacies that pay homage to the region's vibrant culture and history. Thank you for this amazing food vlog! Keep it up! Proud Ilonggo here.
I brought my manila friends in a restaurant here in Iloilo and they love all the dishes, they said ilonggo food are so good and much cheaper than the food in Manila. And they definitely want to comeback again because of our food here ♥️
Yes I only saw these all in erwans vlog. My husband is an ilonggo but I never been here yet. I want to come here in this amazing food trip places. I love it.
I used to travel around Visayas a lot due to my previous job, and Iloilo and Bacolod have always been my fave stops where you can indulge in quick gastro adventures.
Bisaya ako pero ang sarap talaga ng mga pagkain ng mga Ilonggo. ❤
Thank you Erwan for really showing it in details- I am from estancia one of the best supplier for all seafoods and can attest that it is one of the most delicious food truly came from Iloilo ❤❤❤
Thank you Erwan for featuring Iloilo! The province/city has so much to offer. Watching this made me miss Iloilo more. Hope you had a lovely time while in Iloilo, pls visit more often and bring Anne and Dahlia too! ❤️❤️❤️ looking forward to the next videos! 😊
This is the only place I want to go back again and again because of its food ❤
Proud Ilonggo! Thank you for showing Ilonngo's best! 🎉🎉🎉
I'm amazed how much Erwan can eat.
Namit gid ya pagkaon sa Iloilo!
Galing naman ni Erwan! Pinapakita niya sa video lahat ng food choices from affordable na pang-masa to expensive na sosyalin. Meron para sa lahat ng budget ng travellers. Iloilo will be on my travel list cause of this video. ❤
Thank you for featuring Iloilo. I am from Pavia, Iloilo and i am very proud to be an Ilonggo forever.
Thank u Erwan for featuring our beloved city.More power to u and ur team!♥️
Our family is from Iloilo. Love this! 🫶 Already looking forward to part 2. 😄
Awesome! Thank you!
Thanks Erwan for Iloilo visit and appreciating our food. Iloilo is the food basket of Panay Job well done.
1:58 I used to live in a Hiligaynon speaking part of Mindanao. Thought this one is called "Kamunsil" and the term "bukaka" is used as a replacement for the word "hinog" when describing the fruits.
I may sound bias but watching something about Western Visayas, I can't take my eyes on it. No intention of skipping nor stop watching it. So proud Ilongga here!
Thanks Featr for featuring Iloilo.
p.s. Central Market was my go-to place when I was in college. Mercados really help me relaxed, sounds weird but I really love going to markets. Hihi
I hope you enjoyed not just the food but the Ilonggo hospitality as well. Thank you for paying my hometown a visit and for showcasing Iloilo Cuisine! Hats off to you Sir Erwan!
I enjoyed the whole video, very informative and fun (medyo nakakagutom nga lang 😂). It made me appreciate the distinct food culture of Ilonggos. Ilo-ilo is definitely a bucket list. Thanks, Featr!
my father is an ilonggo. my mom is a great cook but i love how his version of adobo is made (more on sweetness than savory). and yes! they're malambing. they get mad but they still sound sweet 🤣
madamo guid nga salamat sir erwan. my hat's off to you for doing justice in showcasing the ilonggo cuisine. as a proud ilonggo, you made me prouder. thanks ulit sir. ❤
Kudos to Erwan for being able to eat all that food in one day❤
Ilonggo dishes are so tempting! 👍This vlog is a great representation of Iloilo’s food, thank you, FEATR!
I miss Iloilo. Currently living in 🇨🇦. Whenever I meet folks from other provinces here in Canada, they always ask, “oh what is your city known for?” and I always tell them, just come and visit and I will give you a gastronomic tour. Next time I’ll add that they need to come visit in stretchy pants! 😂
the food haven capital of the philippines like no other Im proud of my City❤❤❤ a City that rich in history and herritage where the famous. Ilonggos always stands out in many things
whenever i watch this segment i always put it in my bucketlist! i really love seeing this part of the Philippines i didnt know about. my country is reall beautiful ❤
how can Erwan look so sweaty and still feel fresh-y? hahaha. i hope the second part would FEATR food from the province. Let's go, Iloilo! fantastic episode btw.
Iloilo has never been and never will be overshadowed by Bacolod.
Shhh indi na pagdal-a ang iloilo vs bacolod bardagulan diri hahaha iwas gulo nalang
The ilonggo energy is strong in this one hahaha
@@livieloubelleSunlog sunlog man lang nga bardagulan hahahahha healthy competition ah.
Oi...never knew there's a competition between these two wonderful cities. I'm an Ilongga, loyal to Iloilo but I also like Bacolod. Love2 lang po❤
@@iam8685sunlog2x lang man usually ah pero basi makibot ang FEATR kung may gabardagulan sa comments 😂
Amazing and great food finds. Simple and delicious yet abundant..... Kudos.....
From the city of love myself appreciate this much.
"Manamit....dali na sa Iloilo ang pagkaon saboroso"
Thank you Erwan for visiting my hometown. I missed my Lolo and Lola's grilled seafoods and all the amazing Ilonggo dishes. I live in Bulacan now and will probably have a vacation next year to enjoy our very own authentic Ilonggo cuisine.
FEATR’s contents are really on a different level. They may not always be “viral” or “popular” but that’s awesome quality there.
Better done than what Bourdain did. WHY no subtitles at the long interview at Beige?! I live in Iloilo and eat a lot of those dishes right at home. The freshness and abundance here is mind blowing. Nicely done (retired doc filmmaker here).
One last request - your supers on what the dishes are - waaaay too fast to read. Really detracts
Grateful for your visit to Iloilo City! Your presence brought warmth to our streets. Glad you enjoyed our food.
Looking at Erwan eating all this dishes from Iloilo,how he explained it
,my mouth starts to salivate and it’s like I can taste all those flavours that I grew up with.
Cyrils...!!! The best place to eat sa Central Market. Dumduman ko gid ang good old days dira kami naga pamahaw, panyaga. The Igbante family really provides a home cooked feeling sa ila food.
Thanks for enlightenment of how sumptuous the Ilonggo cuisine to the world Erwan and you make us proud always and be safe always ❤
Made me miss my Life in Iloilo. The people and the Food is superb.
🤩
