WOah hands off the soya sauce until you savour the meal flavour to your liking. those sauces are to condiment when not up to your taste.

[@jasonvlogs423]

Philippines so friendly I love the country from London 🇬🇧 🇬🇧

[@maze.cotton]

4:40 Ken, you shouldn’t have to add more soy sauce to pancit bihon. When eating at a local food stalls you have to taste it first, most of the time you don’t need to add condiments to your food. It was there for when the taste isn’t to your likings.

[@chaw294]

Yeah, after watching a few of your videos, l noticed that the Filipino locals are truly truly friendly. They could just strike up a conversation and are not camera shy. A BIG APPLAUSE to all Filipinos out there. And to you, Ken, you are equally friendly, humble and down to earth type. Well done, well done !!!
Yummy "bihon"/noodles ....wow, a big portion indeed. Interesting drinking session with that "drinking master" 🤓😀 Fun and entertaining watching your video. Thanks Ken.

[@boyet1sancho2]

Wellken iwish you having fun in thephilippines but please take an extra care

[@malaysianeurofibromatosisc588]

Yah you have to watch out also.

[@keithhardy8513]

I remember drinking Red Horse in the Phillipines. Red Horse is a VERY strong beer 🍺🍻 👌 👍👍🤣🤣 Prost !!! 🍻🍻

[@renealcid6708]

Try to avoid taking a taxi bc you will encounter a lot of traffic. For a change, try taking mass transit( and I don’t mean tricycles and jeepneys). MRT- mass rapid transit, LRT- light rail transit and under construction are the Metro Manila Subway and the Makati Intra City Subway system which would be integrated.The Metro Manila Subway will have a station at BGC and the Ortigas Commercial Districts which are slated to be partially operational in 2025.
It is a common practice in the Philippines to pack up your leftovers for eating at home. Sometimes, serving sizes are too much for 1 meal hence the takeout. We are not in the habit of wasting food like they practice in western societies particularly the United States and most countries in Europe!
Thank you for visiting the Philippines and Stay well!

Joe refers to the name given to American servicemen. In my previous visit to Phils I was called Joe all the time. Lol

Hi Ken. Another great vlog you had to explore in Manila right now. i see you've tried one of the special Filipino foods that is Pancit Bihon. I'd Hope you liked how it tastes of a kind noodle that we have here in the Philippines. There's a saying in Chinese when you eat Pancit Noodles, it gives you a long life. Try also Spanish Bread. its one of the Best bread server also during the days of WW1 here in the Philippines.
Be careful on Drinking Redhorse. Redhorse is a combination of Gin and Beer. So if you're not used to it that much, there's a tendency you might get a little stomach ache and Dizzyness through it plus vomit. Just be careful. Redrose is a very strong alcohol in the Philippines.
Try to visit the National Museum Of Manila, Luneta park, Fort Santiago and Intrumuros. you may get around to seeing the wonderful historical culture of the Philippines. Those are the typical Great places to look around in Manila.
Just don't mind when people call you Joe. Some Filipino can misinterpreted when they see a foreigner around. Good Thing you have the humility to interact with others. Always take care and enjoy more good times here in our beautiful country. I hope your travel here will be more efficient.

[@yukiko313]

Hi Ken! It must be so nice to have beer with friendly locals on Friday afternoon 😍 You'll never walk alone there in the Philippines, that's wonderful 💕

[@BreakawayBites]

You are so tall so not surprised that you are often mistaken as a basketball player....And yes, so far during all your travels, the locals are very hospitable and friendly....Nothing like some off the beaten path adventure ..... As always stay safe, and take care out there...

[@1984kron]

I think its more because he walks around in a basketball jersey :)

[@user-wm2hq2mp7z]

Hi Ken, I follow you because you remind me of my Gernan student who are now like a son to me and his family are like extended family now too! He was only 16th when he came as an exchange student, now his 40 years old, married & have kids and we still keep in touch to this day! I told him about you, and he follows you too!

[@junemarbuclolgulitiw1855]

Hi..Ken..very nice video makes local friends that really good to do to makes friends in more subscribers,that they say to you or calling you is the expression as a Bro.the meaning..but you know the other foreigners sometimes they dont know how to makes friends or to entertain the local pilipinos ,the secrete is to say hi.hello,& ask the people how what will you do to avoid scam or you didnt know..but for you you are amazing that you know what to do how to entertain people..compass..it i mean..so goodluck in e careful always.. happy holidays..bro..

[@Henyo1070]

If you go to neighborhood bakeries ask for spanish bread and pan de coco. That's always a best seller anywhere you go. Also worth trying is the pandesal (local breakfast roll) as well as the ensaimada. Speaking of which you should try the breads and pastries in Mary Grace. Their specialty is cheese breead and the ensaimada.

[@erlitacollison7253]

Hihihi bread in Europe are not sweet

[@dann547]

You may like to visit Puerto Galera in Mindoro. It is a famous and popular beach area. Easy bus ride to Bantangas City Port from Manila ( 2hrs) and a 45 minute ferry ride to Puerto Galera.
We love your videos.

[@globomanni8407]

Yes, that's a phantasic suggestion - Especially White Beach is very nice and i prefer it to Boracay

[@chaw294]

Interesting premier....nice chatting with you and everyone there. "Salamat" Ken.

[@itssimplyjhen5046]

You try to explore Poblacion Makati nextime. Take care Ken :)

[@sharonleong7120]

Thanks Ken for sharing another great and interesting video. I enjoyed watching it too. 👍👍👍❤️❤️❤️

[@katherineg3857]

Good day!!! Ken abroad, i suggest you try to visit iloilo city and there's so many places to explore here like old heritage houses, foods, many other things you can do while you're and experience the ilonggos hospitality... if you want to go here you should come here this coming january, so you can celebrate and enjoy a once in lifetime experience with the famous Dinagyang festival of iloilo city...

[@aussiegirlinphilippines]

Great vlog! I think is from GI Joe , is why call you Joe, thinking you an American & so therefore referring to Joe :)

[@antigraftandcorruption5849]

Not only to Americans but to all white men and maybe also to tall black men.

[@perlaaguinaldo]

sorry ken was late with your live chat.your pansit looks yummy enjoy your tour on other place..

[@normahervias9596]

[@ominkan3129]

Sa la ma t Ken. Good video.

[@TeacherEric173]

Typically, Filipinos referred to white male tourists as "Joe" (G.I. Joe), which referred to American soldiers from the occupation until the military's final presence in the Philippines.

[@thelmsrmallada1125]

Hi Joe! Hahaha we used to greet the white guy passing by our house when I was just a kid, he was young and handsome and he would just smile at us, that was everyday and we did not know if he is American, maybe Irish or German 😅🤣

[@lambda-m1676]

I call them random terms most of the time.
"Man", "Joe", "homie", whatever I can think of

[@MRADVENTUREMIX]

Nice one my friend ☺️

[@mhilrhik]

Pansit canton looks good. You can also try pansit varieties here in Cavite. Hope you can visit CALABARZON. thanks for the vlog.

[@itssimplyjhen5046]

Hey Jo is a greetings referring to American soldiers during world war 2 when they liberated the Phillipines. The tradition is carried on up to the the present. We use this greetings to any white male in the Philippnies presuming that they are all Americans.

Many parts of the Philippines foreigners especially males of Caucasian decent will be greeted as “Joe” referring to the GIs American soldiers who had a presence here through World War II.

[@joeydelarosa7163]

I wish everything will be alright with you until the end of your travel here. Take care of yourself always.

[@ofwmixtv8696]

Careful ken wherever u go

[@bluedoodleol]

Ha
It’s something before you start complaining how tired you are you should watch. Also all the places you visit have been well documented before. I never need to see the view over the Venice canal from the Airbnb buyer vlogger flats or use surf shark to watch it😁

[@ofwytc3165]

I miss pancit bihon..yummy.

[@plos2765]

It's great to see you having a nice time. Always nice to see the videos you make. Unfortunately I only ever had bad experiences with the Philippines. For anyone going there I'd recommend be as careful with yourself as you can.

[@josephinedelacruz8363]

That noodles called pancit is already a complete foods.

[@man4YAWEH454]

That was enough noodles to make a person very sleepy,lol.

[@bhello99]

Hello Ken, you're looking great, your complexion improved. Have you tried Pansit Palabok? That's 1 of my favorite. Cheers from Oman

[@uldaricoangeles6470]

Sir ken try going to Baguio city the Summer capital of the Philippines.

[@R3tR0L0v3]

you're correct about the Joe thing, came from the days when American Soldiers (G.I. Joe) were in the Philippines during world war 2

[@blackwater7183]

16:20 This made me laugh.😂Germans like to savour their beer while some Filipinos like to finish it A.S.A.P kinda like a macho thing to show they can hold their liquor. Ken was probably confused why this guy chugged every cup.

[@manabatlyndel2284]

Ingat ken!

[@cherieanngalis]

Hellow I'm filipina...her in cebu I'm bisaya

you are actually correct about Joe, name used to refer American white guy, (GI JOE)

Pancit is filipino rice noodles mixed with pork and veggies. It looks steamy hot Ken!

8:54 'Round shape with hole in the middle, and coated with sugar.'
Isn't that just the typical doughnut? Or do you mean the Berliner?
Talking about Berliner, it reminded me of John F. Kennedy's speech in Berlin where he said, "Ich bin ein Berliner". And someone jokingly said it mean "I am a doughnut". 🤣

[@bluedoodleol]

Ken have you ever watched the film Metro Manila? I think you should t

[@ofwmixtv8696]

hi ken team Germany vs Spain match today..ur team is germany right?

[@KenAbroad]

Correct 🇩🇪 💪

[@user-xp7fz5og8q]

Ken, don't put soya sauce before u taste the dish cause there's a lot of salt in soya sauce (→high blood pressure)❣
Also that will spoil the original taste of the dish😉

[@merciseignuer1030]

Wowww!

[@craigb2644]

Great video Joe. Looks like you had a good time.

[@joelmarfel7606]

A very expensive mineral water. In my store that size is only P12 only.

[@polgonzales]

Yeah. “Joe” comes from GI Joe. A term that was popular in WWII. Filipinos would call America soldiers, Joe. Old habits are hard to break. I can’t imagine going to another country then called something like “hey China boy.” There’s no insult there just love and endearment but I know it’s weird.

Beergin it is the REAL RED HORSE. Or try BEER and 7 Up you will love the taste.

[@raptorpome2577]

Yes beer and lemonade is nice and refreshing we call it a shandy in England

[@iamcjkleer24]

That's too high for solo pancit order. Here in my city, It will range only for just Php20-35.

[@renealcid6708]

Unfortunately, Filipinos are born beer drinkers. They treat it like water. Do not make the mistake( which you are discovering in this vlog) of challenging Filipinos to a drinking challenge because they will drink to the Death or until they puke . In the provinces, people enjoy your company more than they enjoy their drink!
You are absolutely right about being called Joe.After WWII, the Americans , having liberated the country from the invading Japanese, were referred to as Joe. Ironically, prior to the Japanese invasion, it was the Americans that invaded the Philippines after the Filipinos liberated themselves from the Spanish who brutalized the people in their 300+ years stay in the country!

[@saludsagario797]

Jo.. to the pilipino thats how they address or call a foreigner .That's one of the influence of the American in our culture

[@royalgem6379]

You only add soy sauce to the Bihon (noodles) after tasting it first. Maybe the salt is already enough so no need to add soy sauce.

[@jboycaceres2871]

Why does people call you "JOE"? It’s something that every white male in the Philippines is familiar with…the smiley jeepney driver waves and yells out “Hey Joe!” as he drives by. This is an expression left over from WWII, a “term of endearment” for American soldiers (think “G.I. Joe”). It’s certainly not meant as an insult, and Americans seem to love it.

[@laurence2421]

I just noticed you finally got the Pilipinas jersey! lol

Hi Joe! refers to the white American soldiers after the war in Manila. A colloquial call transferred from generations to generations. Kids see you as a white person so they taught your an American even do you're German.
