His project, called Bawang, exploded, and now he’s hand-delivering over 25 orders of beef mechado, pork adobo, sweet chili chicken wings, and deep-fried lechon a day to the city’s eager residents.

      Straight facts💯, Filipino food is catered for everyone whether you're rich or poor✊,, yes I get how some chefs will make fusion dishes out of it and thats fine wit me but it sucks when they put up the menu price when thats not how the humble filipino cuisine is supposed to be, its should be about good comfort and unique flavours,,and thats the secret of the filipino food dishes untold to many😉🇵🇭

Would you not enjoy the food when it is being delivered to your doorstep by the same person who cooked it? Not to mention, the way he cooked his food is purely filipino. No extra bullshit, straight filipino style and recipe. I just ate an hour ago, and damn i'm hungry.

      I think I figured out why you don't disturb the adobo. When you add the vinegar, it stays on the bottom and gets absorbed slowly into the meat. If you stir it, it'll evaporate too fast and over-carmelize or burn. So, you just have to leave it on simmer.

      Agreed. They don't try to overexecute and overelevate the food to an audience that's seeing and meeting Filipino cuisine for the first time, where they often get something super far from the original, essentially meeting a complete stranger. Hate it when other Fil-Am chefs do that. If you're introducing the cuisine, it's not bad to pay homage to tradition. Palibhasa siguro yung iba lumaki sa instant sauces ng nanay nila, they never knew how we traditionally made it, so their concept of elevating is to make it fusion beyond recognition.

      I agree. People ask me for recipes, but I do not have any exact measurements. 😅

      A degree of measurement is always there. It's just harder to describe in words.

      I just cooked casually but i dont really need to measure.. and I really based it at the taste.. some dishes doesnt taste right if you measure it but if your dont its really delicious 😋😋 just sayin

      Professional and good chefs never measure ingredients. You need to taste it, then taste it again, again and then just before you serve it.

    Some people are just so supportive. They understand that not everyone can be great, but you can be great at what you do. Help others achieve their dreams and they will remember you.

    Super inspirational- thanks man! Someone like yourself is ready to bring delicious Filipino food to the masses. I think it has to just be handsomely marketed like you are doing. I have found unique from any other cuisine the soy, lime, heavy garlic combination which raises any of red meats to a new level. Favorite home made recipe is Beef Adobo using Flat Iron steak so tender and succulent with the garlic soy lime infusion. I can't wait to experiment with Beef Mechado as I am making Beef Caldareta with Chuck Roast here in California which is off the charts slow cooked in Le Cruesett dutch oven. Keep up craft bro!
