    As a Chinoy living abroad. This episode is very inspiring to me. I'm a pro. chef based abroad for 2 decades with a strong international cuisine & pastry background but my Amah wasn't able to teach me those heirloom dishes because she was bed ridden and ill when she was living. Funny thing, I have a house near to where China Mommy is based.

Because looking at her (China Mommy) I saw my mom to her! I love the way she manages her own kitchen and staff. I wish someday I can come back and visit Manila and I will get to see and taste her foods in her restaurant. God willing! 🙏🏼👼🏼♥️😍🥰🤩🩷💛💜💞

    I'm an avid follower of Featr's series showcasing various small businesses but this one really hit me right in the feels. As a Fil-Chi myself who grew up around Ongpin and Binondo area, I've had a taste of Maki, Chinese Lumpia, Sibut, Kiampeng, Cha Misua because of my late taima (great grandma) and ahma (grandma). They would always cook these dishes which were really good! They're gone now and you know sometimes I just wish I could get a taste of their cooking again...like I'm always looking for that flavor/dish. I will definitely try China Mommy! Thank you for featuring them and thank you for making these heartwarming videos. Keep it up, Featr team! ❤

    Mam Linda reminds me of my departed grandmother Lydia. She grew up in a coastal town and she sold dried fish for the entirety of her childhood. Just a little kid walking around different parts of town with a basket in tow. With this can-do attitude and she eventually moved up in life to become an owner of a handful of properties.She also had a thriving convenience store which added to the success. She was fond of cooking and often went to public markets that we implored her not to go on, for health reasons. During the flatline there was a defiant pulse. She was stubborn till the very end. I miss her so much.

    Thank you Feature team for this episode. Thank you China Mommy and family for making your traditional chinese food available to everybody who misses their Ama’s or Angin’s home cooking. I grew up eating most of the food shown. I regret not having learned my Angins’ recipes, that she passed down to my Dad. I always thought that I had plenty of time to learn from him. Sadly, he passed away two years ago and I never got the chance. I’m glad this episode popped up on my feed. I’d like to think that my Dad knows how much I miss him and his cooking and this is his way of connecting with me. I will definitely order from China Mommy on my next trip home to the Philippines. Can’t wait to try the tastes of home again. Thank you Feature!
