    Oh man, my bucket list once i get the chance to come back home. I love how Jian got to do voice over on this video. He just is one of the best food tour guides there is. He's knowledgeable, fun, kind and i really like his philosophy of "try it once" What i also like with the fresh lumpia is the filling to wrapper ratio is on point. I also love how creative or "punny" we are as a people. "Magic water" is genius. We love play on words. another awesome video❤❤❤

    hi geoff,
    nice video as always..
    when you leave the phillipines, you need to re adjust/adapt your taste buds since you have quite adapted our flavors..
    specially making your own dipping sauce, or adding more condiments to your food to enhance the flavor, is such a filipino trait..
    more power to your channel..

    If my memory serves me right, the reason why Philippines despite being a tropical or humid country has loads of hot soups selling or serving around is because our grandmas used to tell us that since our weather in this country are humid and hot, we tend to perspire or sweat a lot, so loads of water in our body were being released and it's dangerous if we get dehydrated because of that. So that's the reason why it's a staple in every household in the Philippines to have soup served in every meal, so that the water in our body will be replenished.

    Haven't done watching yet. But i don't think it's brown sugar that's used to sweeten the fresh Lumpia. It's crushed Chinese peanut bars which you can also eat by itself as a sweet. You can buy it in most Chinese stores. Some supermarkets have it too.

    Why is it that Filipino street food have most of the undesirable parts of chicken, pork and beef that most Westerner are not used to eat. These include chicken intestines, chicken feet, chicken head, etc. as well as pig and cow blood and innerts. One can only speculate that this has to do with PH’s colonial past. Three hundred thirty three years under Spain and about 50 years under the US have forced most poor and colonized Filipinos to eat the cheapest, if not the wasted parts of chickens, pigs, and cows, while the colonizers ( and the favored and/or rich Filipinos ) dined on the best, expensive and meaty parts of these animals. …….Just an opinion, thought or speculation.

    • @philippinefoodtours6237
      @philippinefoodtours6237 11 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Similar to other oppressed people. Take US southern barbeque, the ribs, the brisket, these were the worst parts of the animal and was generally given to the southern blacks slaves. Chitlins or Chiterlins are pig intestines. Sausages were random cuttings of meat mixed with spices and stuffed in intestines.

    • @PureDetour
      @PureDetour  11 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I can totally understand your where you are coming from but I would question this notion that it is the most "undesirable" part of animal. Most undesirable to who? People tend to be squeamish or put off by things they are unfamiliar with. I would suggest trying it and then making an informed decision. Is it for everybody? Absolutely not, but I I am a westerner and I will take those "undesirable" innards over a tomato every day of the week and twice on Sunday.
