Appreciate the honesty. By Philippine standards, those prices are excessive given the quality of the food.

For the price range of these buffets, the reason their price is so high so as compared to the quality is because they mostly focus more on quantity rather than quality. mas mabilis maenganyo ang pinoy sa dami kesa sa quality, realtalk.

Hi Jimmy, the Purple dessert soup is called "Binignit". The famous Cebuano dish is traditionally made with glutinous rice cooked in coconut milk with various slices of sabá bananas, taro, ube, jack fruit, and sweet potato, among other ingredients. Also, the dish is traditionally served during Good Friday of Holy Week. Some places in the Philippines have their own version of this dish as well.

But I think he missed to scoop some glutinous rice balls. All he’s eating are the sago pearls. It’s a shame coz the texture of the glutinous rice balls might be familiar to him as a Korean. It’s like a dessert type & soft tteokbokki.

@@ynnos5555 true but personally, glutinous rice balls and tteokbokki aren't really my cup of tea. While I like the tteokbokki sauce, not a big fan of the texture. So I would probs also gotten what he has gotten as well.

Nah, it's piccolo's blood

8:03 that purple dessert is called binignit in cebuano, in tagalog we call it ginatan or bilobilo. The puple color came from purple yam or ube, it has glutinous rice balls, banana saba, sweet potato, jackfruit, tapioca pearls, taro and cassava cooked in a sweetened coconut milk. There is a white version of it without the purple yam. It’s my favorite filipino dessert. This dessert is always available in Hyehwa-dong Seoul at the Philippine Sunday Market so whenever I crave for Filipino foods I just go there on Sunday.

I don't really care about the food, but I'm most envious about the fact he went there during Christmas, the best time to be in the Philippines. Anyway, hope you had a good one, Tito Jimmy!

Hi Jimmy! The purple dessert is called "bilo bilo". It is a sweet sticky rice balls with fruits (sweet potatoes, sometimes banana, and tapioca pearls. They are not usually purple but if they put ube or food coloring, then it must be why. Hope this helps ya.

OMG 😂 ☠️ "I just find it extra liberating when the drinks are included in the buffet, too. This must be how an american person feels every day. Like, you feel freedom, but you're actually paying a lot of money for it." HAHAHAHA

I went to Cebu during the sinulog festival it is a very beautiful place to be.

This is what i like about your vlog.. if you dont like it.. you do not lie👍✨ Good job!

I always enjoy your content because you always say what's on your mind. Hahha. You are right about buffets.

You should go to nustar there Buffett is nice too

Hello Jimmy, my in laws for Thanksgiving serve turkey and ham and I go for the ham everytime. They even make ham gravy in addition to turkey gravy where the ham gravy is a bit saltier and I think it tastes better too. I wish we had those kind of buffets in America because then they would be worth it. Most buffets if I can even find one near me are 15-20 something dollars and they serve like 10 main entress and a couple of desserts-so not worth it.

lol when Jimmy ignores the weird sushi kombos. We also have those in Europe but there is still some sashimi too. I recommend to still try the crispy tempura chicken sushi and smoked salmon sushi with teriyaki sauce on top. Yummy.

What a humor 😂 subscribed

This is what I love about Jimmy. He is real. If the food suck it sucks!

That Lechon Kawaii and Lechon Baka was so hilarious! I'm kind of triggered they spelled my country name "Singaporean" wrong, I still prefer the cheapest buffet! looks super value for money!

Hey Jimmy! You definitely should try restaurants and food only available in CEBU. Danidoo Waffles, Dimsum Break, Proben(street food) and Sunburst(Local Chicken Diner). I'm flying to cebu next month just to have another taste of it😂

As someone who grew up in Cebu, I've always associated Sunburst with our local food scene. But recently, I discovered that it actually started in Iligan City in 1971 😆

you and inwook are fun to watch.

“Hallway full of juice” is a phrase I’ve never heard in my lifetime and probably never will again.

For me, the most luxurious buffet in Cebu is the shangrila mactan

I cracked when I heard "It looks like Piccolo's blood". Now I can't unsee that and probably will remember that for the rest of my life. I'd laugh whenever I see that dish and remember this vlog. Thank you.

When you go to Manila, try the Spiral Buffet and other buffets too.

Your VO is hella funny 😂😂

Damn, you were in Cebu! I've been following you for a while since I stumbled upon your Korean internet cafe video. Wish I could've met you in person since I live in Cebu. Anyway, very much enjoy your content! Hope you had a blast

Please go to Iloilo city and try LA PAZ BATCHOY. It's a traditional noodle dish that rich in flavour and the ingredients are superb!! You missed the opportunity to witness the festival there.

Great video 👍🏻👍🏻I tried Viking buffet in Cebu and I think is great value and drinks wine and beer is included. But I tried the expensive buffet in Sofitel Manila and I was disappointed so much the lobster shrimp and seafood was overcooked and dry but the sushi and sashimi was delicious

That looked amazing Maybe see you when I am in Korea

Not from the Philipines, but that soup is most likely Purple Yam/Sweet Potato/Ube. It's also served in Vietnam and China, but each have their own things added to it. In China, it's treated similar to Mung Bean/Red Bean soup. The Philipines is the only place I know that also has it as a jam.

Aww Jimmy’s getting sponsored! You get that money!

That delicious purple food is called Ube.

Vikings is like the staple buffet to most of the Filipinos aside from Cabalen. They could be more affordable than the others while offering promos too

@jimmy kim you got to try the Spiral Buffet in Manila. Best buffet in the Philippines

love you uncle jimmy

loved it

Hey Jimmy, if you happen to be in Manila, pls visit the Spiral Buffet in Sofitel its the best!

That shirt is fire. Where did you buy it?

JIMMY YOU ARE HERE!!!!!! AHHHHHHHHHHHH! I want to meet you!

Drinks are usually included in the buffets in Cebu and probably in the whole Philippines. Except for the cocktails.

who films for jimmy?

Lechon Kawaii T-T the "eehhh" got me HAHAHHAA

Welcome to cebu Jimmy jam jam

I don't know what is yummy , the food or uncle Jimmy 🤣😍

jimmys humor in this vid was unhinged LOLL😭

tbh as a local, me and most of the people I know prefer Buffet 101 than that branch of Vikings. I haven't tried the other branches of Vikings but from videos I've seen, they seem be way better than the branch here. Also, I prefer the buffet in Nustar than in Marco Polo but it's probably just recency bias since I love both.

we have other cheaper buffet jimmy, around 7-8 dollars cheaper than the 18 dollars but you have to find restaurants that are priced like that.

Jimmy hyung living the life

Come to India, Kolkata, I'll give you tour of best buffet in India.... You'll enjoy it things are affordable and cheap yet tastiest than any other states.

Hey Jimmy, can you show us in some video what do you mean by "good looking" and "bad looking" sushi? I am from a landlocked country, all sushi looks like sushi to me and I wouldn't know the difference 😣 It would be cool if you showed us what to look for!

7:38 Flaring the lats when walking, I see you Jimmy

Vikings Buffet where even for most Filipino's is expensive enough is the "cheapest" here 😭. Anyways, hoped you enjoyed your stay here in Cebu, unfortunately didn't get to see you here but maybe next time when you come here 😁.

The wine jokes were so funny haha 😂
