7:57 actually there's a viral video where a filipino guy who's living in the US or canada( i forgot) and asked his family from the philippines to send him a balut. And after he received the package and opened it, there's a little duckling inside that hatched from one of the eggs.
Tip: if the Caldereta is not specified as "beef," chances are it might be goat. Even in the US. I really recommend eating it hot and sizzling on a hot cast iron plate with lots of beer. If you can get moonshine, even better. Note: these will be made out of what on a cow will be the t-bone and porterhouse, and mutton has smaller bones. Despite its popularity as liquor/beer chow that some people in the rural areas may eat with their hands or just a spoon, depending on how you bite into each chunk that may end up with you swallowing a shard of the spine or even the rib. I hold it with chopsticks over a bowl of rice (to sop up any sauce) and bite a bit off each chunk at a time to avoid choking on a sharp bone shard. As for the rice vermicelli noodles: unless it's the saucy ones bordering on soupy, they're almost always cooked on the bland side then it's up the diners to adjust the saltiness with fish sauce. I have no idea why but it's always been that way. Not particularly fond of this dish either but the fish sauce really helps.
Excellent--thanks for all the pointers. We'll definitely keep in mind. We've had goat before and could tell the difference between that and meat. In this case, yeah it was labeled as beef caldereta. I could see the noodles being on the bland side and acting as a vessel for all the other flavorful dishes.
Magik Sarap is used in cooking for that Filipino version of umami taste. 😊 Salted egg (red egg) is usually paired tomatoes to balance off the saltiness of the egg. It can be the eaten on its own with rice (of course since rice is life in the PH) or as side dish to tocino, fried bangus/milkfish (get the one that is deboned), longanisa, grilled chicken or pork, butted shrimp. Yum! 😃
You use banana ketchup like how you use tomato ketchup. It's sweet. It's good mixed with mayonnaise and use it as dip for cheese sticks or dynamite (green chili with cheese roll)
Thank you for your honest review!! A lot of filipino food are salty so you need a lot of rice to balance it out. We only have a few ingredients that we are using for seasoning (soy, salt, bagoong, vinegar, garlic, onion, ginger)so we can't really compete with other asian food like indian, thai and vietnamese who has tons of spice s and other flavorings. And FYI, filos don't really like spicy food. So to sum it up, filipino food is mostly, salty, sweet or sour. Oh that sauce for the chicken bbq is probably a mix of banana kechup and soy sauce❤️
1. UFC is commonly used than fiesta. 2. Banana Sauce/Banana Ketchup is an alternative for tomato Ketchup in the Philippines. Filipinos usually use it as a dipping sauce for fried food.
HAHA THE BROOM!! And omg the colored salty eggs. How we eat it is we mix it with tomatoes and on the side we have the spicy vinegar with onions and eat it with rice. Sooo good Sailor Moon ❤
@@ItsJamesandMark they are already boiled ready to eat once peeled! Super salty but so good. I'm about to buy some tomorrow now! I hope you purchase the "purple/pink" eggs to try soon :) P.s. I loved your cruise vlog. I always knew you were the life of the party (;

I like the surprise MMMMMMM!!! Next time try something cooked in coconut cream. I also like Lengua... or tongue. Honestly, Lengua is the best cut of meat but the most under appreciated. Lengua cooked in mushroom sauce. This is something we got from the Spaniards. Lengua con Setas. Also try Lumpiang Sariwa, or Fresh lumpia. This is cooked bits of heart of palm with other veggies stuffed in a soft Lumpia wrapper, served with a sweet sauce topped with fresh minced garlic.
@@ItsJamesandMark My first encounter with salted egg was with popcorn about 2 years ago. ( I was hooked ) Once you try the salted egg fried rice, try it on fried chicken wings , french fries, shrimp,salmon but what will really amaze you is the salted egg icecream !!!😋
When I saw the blue crabs, it made me crave korean marinated crabs.. now I am looking up a recipe xD. No good restaurants that sell it in the bay area!
Is it called Ha Sun Saeng? I have that place bookmarked but it has been temporarily closed for a while now :( I’ve been to crab house in LA and that place is bomb!
@@ItsJamesandMark Think deep fried pork belly with that crackly, super crunchy skin, that with their white vinegar and garlic and of course rice is a sublime plate.. My former colleagues used to joke that the lipitor machine is located on the way out of the food court for your convenience, lol... 😄 It's a treat.
That food for only $54! 😍😍 I like the food score at the end.
Sometimes we feel we don't explain if we like the food or not so that kinda helps wrap everything up!
I love all the vibrant colors,this was so enjoyable to watch. Thank you for taking us along.
It was fun to film this as we didn't know what to expect at all!

Oooh thanks for sharing your insight!! Appreciate it!
Love seeing you guys try more filipino food!!! my favorite snack growing up was bagoong with hard mangoes 🤤
Ohhh that sounds good. Vietnamese people like to eat hard mangos with fish sauce so I can see why bagoong would work!

2. Banana Sauce/Banana Ketchup is an alternative for tomato Ketchup in the Philippines. Filipinos usually use it as a dipping sauce for fried food.
Ahhh we could see it being good for fried food!
I’m So envious of y’all
Don't be!! We're here to share :)

Awesome! We loved being on there!
HAHA THE BROOM!!

Are the eggs hard boiled already? Do you just crack and eat or do you still need to cook them?
@@ItsJamesandMark they are already boiled ready to eat once peeled! Super salty but so good. I'm about to buy some tomorrow now! I hope you purchase the "purple/pink" eggs to try soon :)

for Corned Beef choose the DELIMONDO brand from the Phils too. if you cant find it in any asian store, try online shopping.
Thanks PhoenixGrin!! Will add to our shopping list (we're actually going to the market today!)
it was the chicken skewers for me...might have to make some this weekend...😜🙃😛...
Oh my god these were so good!!
Got Julius and I salivating. So what I heard you say is that we need a Philippines 🇵🇭 trip?! 😋😆
OMG, that would be a blast. In the meantime, can we tag along (or tagalog :P) on your next Filipino grocery store run??? lol
Salted egg and tomatoes! Looove! (For the salted egg make sure you’ll cut it in half and use a spoon to collect the egg from the shell)
Then, cut tomatoes and egg, eat it with rice and enjoy.❤
Love it, thx for the suggestion!

We love lengua but have only eaten it either yakitori style or in tacos, thx for the rec!
@@ItsJamesandMark yup! Lengua kicks ass! LOL! Enjoy your food tripping!
Wow! That is a big store!
Seemed smaller compared to other markets we've been to but also imagine it has everything you'd need for Filipino cuisine!
Those chicken skewers were massive!! 😮
Yes, perfect for a lunch!!!
maybe some colored eggs are Baloot. i love the chicken skewers BBQed
The colored eggs are salted eggs.
you guys should all the flavors of the pancit canton instant noods! heheheh.......the lumpia part, I CAN't! hahaha
All the flavors?? We need to go back and stock up. And lol on the lumpia part too
omg love it
Thank you!!
Red eggs are salted great paired with tocino, rice and tomatoes
Yummy! We gotta try!
Omg ! This market reminds me of super store here in Canada
Super store sounds big! This market was modest in size!
You’re supposed to eat them with rice especially the salty ones.
Yep, we had a hefty scoop nearby to eat with all the dishes
So yummy! I love going to markets
They're fun, especially ones you've never been to before!
You should try to combine diff flavours of pancit canton. My favorite is 2 packs of sweet&spicy plus 1 pack of chilimansi. 👍👍👍
Well add to our shopping list!
AND OMG Mark I have the same shirt hahaha
TWINS! Now I want that shirt to fit in :P
FilAm over here! Definitely UFC!
It'll be fun to do a blind taste test. Any ideas on what we could eat it with?
I think the sauce smothered on the skewer is a combination of Banana Ketchup and soy sauce I think (not sure). 😅
We could see that!
The BFs fav is 99 Ranch and Pacific Super here
I don't think we have Pacific Super here.
UFC All the way!
Not surprised "UFC" would win in a fight lol
there is a phillipino market here in San francisco called manila market
the bf likes to go there
What you said 99 Ranch and Pacific Super in the other comment? lol
@@ItsJamesandMark This is different market than Pacific Super or 99 Ranch. I am not sure if Manila Market is a chain or not
Salted egg fried rice is a must try 😋

I’ve been to crab house in LA and that place is bomb!
@@ntong22 It's crab house that we have bookmarked! Glad you can vouch for it!
Love swordfish and mackerel
I think I saw mackerel but not sure swordfish here.
@@ItsJamesandMark maybe it wasn't swordfish but it was a big slice of some fish
Love this bvlog
Yay thanks!!

Welcome to our channel!!
Seafood City is a Filipino grocery
We haven't been yet, curious to try. What do you think?
Bagnet = 😋👍
What's bagnet??
@@ItsJamesandMark Think deep fried pork belly with that crackly, super crunchy skin, that with their white vinegar and garlic and of course rice is a sublime plate..

Extremely Wonderful Video by Two Extremely Wonderful Guys....👽👽👻😉
Thank you so much 😀
Come back again ❌
come back soon ✅
ahhahah
Haha perhaps to a closer location!!
Island pacific food is reallly good!! Better than seafood city’s grill city. The market also has better brand options too!
We're eventually make our way to Seafood City just to compare :)
All the food that you ate it should be come with a rice
🍚 🍚 🍚
Choose UFC brand
Noted!
