This is seriously how cooking goes in most rural Filipino households. During fiestas and celebrations, those large woks and long laddles come out and you cook a bunch of different stews and everyone's butchering chickens and pigs, or chopping up veggies and just really coming together. The island nations seem to have that way, very communal and together..
you pretty much capture the essence of how it is done in Hawaii, as we call back yard style. Hawaiian home cooking. every dish presented in this piece is going to be present at any gathering of this nature. those are the best. great piece.
Reminds me of my family; half native American half Congolese. Granddad hunting for for food to save money and learning how to grow foods and be crafty when it comes to food. Sardines, canned tuna, caught fish, game, spam, etc were always in the household. And my grandma, uncle, aunt, and cousin used to live on Oahu for years
I am from INDIA but I got in to hwaiin food just because of you, it is really hard to get this awesome food in south texas, please visit us and open a restaurant.
OMG he's using really traditional Filipino ingredients! Which part of the Philippines were his parents from? The fern shoots, the turmeric leaves, we use those for cooking! The fern shoots we usually cook as a vegetable and sometimes blanch and make it into a salad. The turmeric leaves we usually use for cooking pork stew and sometimes use it to wrap food we steam or grill.
Big fan of you bro, ever since seeing you complete the first time on Top Chef. I guess I'm bias, but you should taken it home on Top Chef. Well, continued success with your restaurant and on whatever you set your mind to, mabuhay.
This is a person I respect a lot though never met, its just his personality, and the love of cooking with what you grew up with. Maika'i keep on cooking Mahalo. And thanx for the pancit noodle video onolicious brah. Ahui hou
One day,I soooo hope to visit his Restaurant, his food and attitude seem awesome. He would make a great mentor and friend, I'm sure. Keep up the coolness Sheldon!! Aloha😁
hecks yeah i agree i've been to both and Canada is way more beautiful than Hawaii could ever be...so you should feel blessed its overated for real for real its like southern california with volcanoes basically...and everyone is an mma fighter lol...but most of the folks are genuine good hearted folks but its a vacation spot trust me if the people lived in the mainland for a few years they would love it and stay here especially in the Appalachian mountains on the east coast Gods Country!
i just finished watching the video. i like how he prepared the paku and pinacbet. it would have been nice to see the final outcome of whole baked stuffed uhu. where did he purchase his cooking tools (wok, wok burner, paddle, etc?) are the woks 22-in or larger? the man is full of aloha and genuine goodness. nice to see someone representing the 808.
I can see you're very kind and family love just like me. I lost my mom and dad and brother . I miss so much. But I need to move on my life to Kosen Rufus.
Wow I can’t believe that they have that hoi salad u call in Hawaii. Filipino people brought it before they migrated to Hawaii. We call that “PaKO” in the Philippines
what's the beautiful turquoise marked fish here 1:28 reminds me of this fish that people get for their saltwater aquariums, I can't remember the name but at one point as a kid I was obsessed with having one if I ever got a fish tank... which I never did heh
Dave my family and I went to visit in oct. my husband and kids loved it. they really didnt want to leave. I'm gonna try going back every year. I'm so far from family that videos like this brings me back home just for a bit.
My uncle juan worked for him for a while he said he was the best person he ever worked with and he learned so much from this man
This guy seems like a genuine nice person and good Chef
He is!
more episodes with this dude! Authentic, humble and funny.

My Mom and Dad are 100% Filipino !! hell yeah LOL.
Not half or part Hawaiian ( Polynesian ) like most Filipinos in Hawaii claim.. Respect to that Chef
Love your story, Sheldon. This reminds me of my family. Thanks for representing Filipinos in America. Mabuhay to all, from Chicago.
Sheldon is such a simple and genuine person. his love for his family and his roots always shows
This is probably the best family meal I've seen on this entire channel. Awesome Chef and an example of a happy family.
Hilo is stunning. Something about Sheldon's voice is so calming yet confident. Just amazing.
I love Sheldon! Such a good man and an amazing chef.

He is one of kind, and a special person. He reaps the fruits of his labor. True Filipino Local boy does great again. God Bless Him!
love how he is so positive about life despite all the hardships he went through
NICE! He's my favorite Top Chef contestant from Season 10 and the current. Hopefully he wins it this year.
Tune in every Tuesday to see more from Chef Sheldon. Thanks for watching!
his dad's heavy pidgin accent is so endearing to me.
Everything about this is why Iove living in Hawaii. Go Chef Simeon!
Genuine humility with an air of "Aloha" in his personality 😎

we have a lot of names of it here, one being "pako" also.

Awww hes soo sweet! You go pinoy!
a very happy, entertaining clip. makes me want to return to Hilo, the most beautiful, shining, rainy city i've seen in all my travels.
Seems like the nicest guy in the world. So down to earth.
Intresting episode and i like to have more of that guy
Love it! There's nothing like a good Filipino feast with your loved ones :)
I gotta go back to my family back in Hilo, haven't been there in awhile.

That's authentic ilocano feast right there!! Green salad, adobo, pinakbet. This dishes doesn't miss out from a gathering!! 😋
I'm glad his back is better. It's tough watching him grimace every episode.
Damn. Made me miss my family and all the great fresh food back in the Philippines. ♡
Humans of Hawaii !!! (Shout out to my family in Oahu and Hilo)
I absolutely love that fern (pako) salad. One thing i missed about Mindanao when I was living in Manila.
Great camera work and even better recipes! Love the content!
Typically filipino... Warm hearted spirit, genuine friendly smiles, good people!

Janice Simeon that explains the pinakbet its an ilocano dish.

Oh man Hilo farmer’s market made me super homesick.
Fun fact: 2 out of every 3 Filipino uncles have gout.
I wish my parents immigrated to Hawaii instead of Canada lol
hecks yeah i agree i've been to both and Canada is way more beautiful than Hawaii could ever be...so you should feel blessed its overated for real for real its like southern california with volcanoes basically...and everyone is an mma fighter lol...but most of the folks are genuine good hearted folks but its a vacation spot trust me if the people lived in the mainland for a few years they would love it and stay here especially in the Appalachian mountains on the east coast Gods Country!
🤣🤣🤣
@@MuhMuhMamaLuigi you right man , im from hawaii born n raised
I kinda wish my parents immigrated to Canada instead of Hawaii. I would love to see some snowy weather. Might also be better not being part of the US.
Tin roof reminds me of PH. I miss the sound of the rain hitting the roof.
i just finished watching the video. i like how he prepared the paku and pinacbet. it would have been nice to see the final outcome of whole baked stuffed uhu.
where did he purchase his cooking tools (wok, wok burner, paddle, etc?) are the woks 22-in or larger?
the man is full of aloha and genuine goodness. nice to see someone representing the 808.
Binge watching his episodes starting now.
