Welcome to my little hometown.👋 At last, my quaint hometown of Bontoc has taken center stage, uncovering its hidden gem: the underrated, art of savoring pancakes and mami, accompanied by the bold embrace of barako coffee at the Market, and more. This discovery reaches far beyond the surface, transcending our status as a mere pit stop on the journey to renowned places like Banaue, Kalinga, or Sagada. Loving this short dokyu as it has deeply touched my heart, for it portrays the essence of our town in a way that resonates profoundly. My gratitude knows no bounds for this beautifully crafted depiction. Thanks @FEATR !!🥰🤍

Thank you for always featuring the beautiful culture and tradition which our country is blessed to have.

Artistry at its finest. Everytime i am losing hope of the Philippines and wanting to migrate, Featr videos always making me fall in love again with the Philippines. Your videos feature the core of the country, our culture, our tradition. Those are what make us uniquely Philippines.

The gem of the Philippines that must be known,relieved and not be forgotten.thank you erwan and featr for featuring our heritage ❤️

It really feels great dear Erwan…being a part of old and rich traditions. This gives us a new perspective in life living here in California for almost five decades this gave me the feeling of pride for how simple and resilient people in this side of our country. Thank you for taking us in this journey. God bless.🙏♥️🙏

Love this. 💖 you're a working social anthropologist Erwan. Your videos are educational, can be used as a teaching material.

I have a KZread channel, but I can honestly say I will never showcase the Philippines as well as this channel does. Every video makes me want to jump on my bike and just go....with a spoon and fork of course😉👍

FEATR is really a master in its own craft... i really enjoy how it features local culture, cuisines, crafts and natural wonders...

I visited Bontoc once and it was like a dream. The place is surreal and it felt like I was in a different country. Longing to go visit back soon ♡♡♡

Welcome I'm from mountain province and it is a beautiful place and related to the grandma in the video she is indeed a kind women and may she live longer❤

Excellent storytelling, FEATR Team! These types of videos really expose us to the rich cultures of our country. 🇵🇭 Thank you for producing amazing content! 🔥

They actually have a video about the wedding in Bayyo 🥰 hope you've seen it... if not, you may watch it on their channel as well 😍

felt so serene, able to travel and experience this warm yet lucid, from all the unending dues, this place just shoot you back to a very humble and simple living. Thank you for this nice ice breaker!

Thank you FEATR for giving the spotlight to the Cordillera region and its rich culture. This is my home!

This is culture and I wish we Filipinos from NCR, Bulacan, and other modernized provinces of the Philippines could go back to the pre colonized practices we had so we can have a much organized, proud, and disciplined youth and people!

It really feels great, not just in Bontoc but the whole if Mt. Province- the quiet and peaceful indigenous communities are who we are greatful of preserving their culture for us to enjoy such sceneries and stiries today

This is the kind of vlog we need to watch, educational & Outstanding. Hope our tourism will recognise you & your team efforts. Deserve to be awarded🎉🎉

It’s amazing how some of our most “traditional” food is based on plants that originate from the Americas like kamote and kamoteng kahoy (cassava). They seem so Filipino. And, indeed, they are.

i feel like this is very different from ur usual style of story telling it makes me feel more involved like i was there experiencing everything with u. ur food documentaries always carry so much heart and i wish they gain greater renown and appreciation in the future!!

Thanks for another great episode,, more episode please... I love cordillera...mountain province, sagada, baguio, bontoc, benguet, ifugao, kalinga... All about nature and their culture and food..,🥰

As you said slow paced but the rhythm is not lost, our lives do revolve on season of planting, celebration, tradition, culture and community; lots of respect for community and nature,

Thank you for featuring our hometown Bay-yo, Bontoc Mt.Prov. God bless.

Wonderful story telling and videography, as always! Thank you for teaching us about our homeland.

This documentary is some real top tier on a kind.

I am a filipina proud to be a Filipino,I love my country Philippines thank you for sharing the culture,lifestyle of my own country,God bless you

Wow...... What an excellent tour! Such an amazing lifestyle so different from my own. Very peaceful village and so much wisdom.

I really enjoyed the series on the Bontoc, resurrection of Anthony Bourdain presentation. It's wonderful to see the cultural relationship to the development of the unique foods...KUDOS to you and keep it up!!

The whole video is giving Anthony Bourdain era, thank you for for featuring untold cuisines of our country 🙏🏻

Our Patupat in Isabela is also different. Thank You for sharing this beautiful life in Bontoc.

Been waiting for this to drop! Thank you @featr🫶🫶🫶

ang sarap panoorin❤... ito ung klase ng lugar na gusto kong tirhan...simpleng bahay,simpleng pamumuhay,puro greens ang makikita.ito ung lugar na parang bumabalik ka sa 90's❤❤❤ sana lang walang mga bastos at walang modo na nagpapaingay ng motor at todo magpatugtog ng speaker at videoke

Missing my hometown! This is a nice treat for us who are homesick.

Wooow! This is my hometown 🏡. I hoped you enjoyed your stay and learned about the culture and traditions. Thanks for featuring Bontoc! 😇 Please come back again!❤

So beautiful and calming. Thanks for this FEATR! 👏👏👏

Woowww!! I love it!! The content! Awesome Thanks for featuring my hometown Bontoc 💙 Sir Erwan and team 😉

Patupat is one of my favorite pasalubong whenever we a wedding gig nearby Bontoc or just pass by. Even for me as a native growing up here in Baguio, local foods always reconnects us back into our roots.. Food is culture..

I LOVE WATCHING THIS KIND OF FOOD VLOG! I LOVE KNOWING THE GEM OF THE PHILIPPINES! ❤🎉😮 THANK YOU SO MUCH FEATR!!!

I knew an 80 something year old man in Germany who hunted wild pigs much the same way as the man in this video, with a spear. He had trained dogs who would chase the boar towards him, and he would sidestep at the last second and spear them. Brave men. Boar can really mess you up.

It is a wonderful video, Erwan! More like this please..👏👏👏👏

I'm greatful to see this video sir erwan 😊, this place is the unique root of my 97 years old grandmother, everything you featured po they've shared to us "apos" gawaing bukid at lutong bukid anumang okasyon maroong patopat 😅 as always favorite pares sa brewed coffee po❤

Oh Bontoc, I had fond memories of you! Thank you Featr for another Cordillera feature.

Welcome sir to my little hometown baranggay bontoc.thank you sir for sharing our culture.thats my ate who is showing you the sabeng.

Pre-Colonial history is fascinating. I"m learning about my cultural heritage. Beautiful content. Thank you FEATR!

I will never forget how delicious the php100/tub yogurt that we bought from a random eatery on the main street. God that was super delicious!!!

Awesome Feature. bontoc. Raw..ordinary yet LIFE

My father's hometown is Omfeg, Bontoc, and our family has been living in Cebu for quite some time now. It's been a while since we last visited my father's birthplace, and I really miss the delicious patupat and the ambiance. Perhaps there are some folks who still know about our Kadchao Clan.

Thanks for showcasing the traditional Filipino culture in Bontoc.

Really appreciate all your content FEATR!! ❤❤ we need more of this quality content to showcase our culture & heritage… to revisit our identity and spread awareness of our diverse culture. Kudos!!!❤

Tenchuuuu Featr for featuring ,watching HAIL CITY KSA

Arang(the rice granery) is one of the proof how resilient and prepared some Filipinos are. I have came across this rice keeping technique before during my research. I wish you can do more videos like this. Thank you

​​@@arjelalvarez7131. thoroughly sun dry the rice before storing. 2. Make sure that the granary roofing has no leakage when rain comes. 3. Don't directly place the stored rice to the concrete flooring or walls of the granary. Cover the concrete floor and wall with pinewood planks bofore storing the rice. 4. Wooden flooring and walls should be used in the granary flooring snd walls. (Pine wood is the most advisable) 5. For pest like rats, and birds, make sure that the granary is closed all the time. (The posts of the houses and granaries especially in ifugao are fitted so that no rat or mouse will get in. ) Saka dito sa Cordillera, walang risk ng pagbaha kaya mas panatag kami mag imbak ng palay ng matagal. 6. Dapat lpinapausukan yung rice granary lalo kung tag lamig. Gawa ka bonefire sa sulok ng granary. Ang pinaka time tested ay yung 1 2 4 5 at 6 yung 3, recent lang yan. Maski yung galvanized sheets di rin advisable para sa walling ng rice granary.

​​@@thepreparedpinoychannel5637nasisira ang palay kapag tumagal ng dikit sa concrete wall at matagal nakalagay sa concrete flooring. Nasisiraan talaga kapag may tagas ang bubong o pinasok ng daga. Madali makita kapag may daga dahil merong pinagbalatan ng palay na makikita sa paligid. Kapag pinasok ng daga ang granary, ilabas mo lahat ng palay, hanapin yung daga at patayin o kung may pusa ka, ipasok mo sa storeroom. Bahala na siya maghanap pag wala na, isalansan mo ulit yung palay mano mano pabalik. Matrabaho yon.

Wow so much to learn. Thanks for your vlog.your new subscriber from Australia.

The cultures and traditions must be preserved this is the gem of the new generations that nothing can be compare to Mabuhay our brothers and sisters of the cordillera God Bless

Why go to Japan when we have our own little villages to explore. If only they can be more accessible

Wow, so Natural

FEATR videos are fascinating ❤❤

Your my hero! Thank you for showing the world our wonderful indigenous f beautiful folk. You are just too privilege to do what you are doing. These people must be protected in all areas of life against encroachment of “ civilized selfish greedy uplanders” in cahoots with powerful political groups. May you remain young and healthy to do the traveling, interview , research and presenting our valuable mountain folks. Please present the Aetas too who are so endangered wherever they are. They have been victims of land stealing by “ educated individuals and groups.” More power and worldwide followers and financiers.

such a heartwarming love letter.

Man i love the raw color of your video....Parang indie film!!!!

i grew up there, and it changed so much. it is a fraction of how it used to be. the river was its main attraction but today it is gone, it turned into a sewer. during my childhood the the river was clean and everyday it is full of people swimming and having a good time. it is so different today, it feels like my hometown vanished into thin air and never to be seen again.

Awesome!!!❤️

Nkakamis yong ilonggo version ng rice cake,yong ingredients naman ng rice cake ng negrense ay iba ,malagkit,gata ng niyog,luya,asin din kunting asukal,then ang pagluto nmn ng malagkit is halfcook lng siya kasi ibabalot pa siya sa dahon ng saging,din ilaga ng 30 to 40mins.masarap siya i partner sa kape oh di kaya sa nilagang LuYa n my kunting asukal na kong tawagin namn ng mga ilonggo is TAHO😊

beautiful video

Bontoc pancake and kapeng barako is the best!!!! Their patupat is also a must try.

Ang ganda

I hope one day you can explore and visit my Hometown... Palapag Northern Samar.

Best place so far nanapuntahan ko in north, Bontoc

This video reminded me how Anthony Bourdain tell his stories. 🥰

more untold stories pleeaasseeeer

My Born place,.Mt. Province. I studied in Bontoc and I miss patupat, barako coffee (which is quite expensive here) and etag, but you can't buy etag here in Manila.

Sarap yang bisukol

in my home town the land of promise we called this. a potomaya,yes the partner is the coffee and sikwate(taste like a hot choco)😊

Love from India This is so similar to Nagaland Our North East Indian State.

whilst lots of young generations leave provinces to find a career in the city I desperately want to get myself a good land and build my home have a small garden and live sustainably. Umuray ka wen Bontoc umalik ak to .... manifesting 2025 missing home so much

Bontoc - Ili ay Kalalaychan...❤❤❤

SECONDDDD

I miss mountain province

👌👌👌

It feels like a movie

Very educational brother. Keep doing this kind of videos visiting other parts of our country. Honestly I don't watch your "food vlog" as kahit sinong creator gumagawa na nito. I pick episode where you visit province discussing its food, but also culture and way of life.

Sub'd!

I am very much amazed by the pork smoked for more than a month.

Some of the best food in Luzon!!

My hidding place Mt.Province. malapit ka na sa Sagada daanan mo na rin. 😊
