When I woke up one morning and realized the beautiful, smart, 20-year old Filipina I married the day before didn't know how to cook American food I thought I was going to starve over the next few years until she could learn. She offered me a deal, in that she would cook Filipino food for a few days, and if I didn't like it, she would not cook it again. Seemed reasonable, so I agreed. Well, she cheated. She cooked pork adobo for me the first night. It was so delicious that I ate it all, and asked her to fix it again the next night. It was so addictive that for four days that was all I wanted for supper. I've since learned to eat and enjoy many more Filipino dishes over the past 50 years together with her. And we've spent five decades exploring the world's cuisines side-by-side in the kitchen. Our kids picked up on the love of cooking, and are now teaching our grandkids the love of not only the Filipino food they grew up with, but also many others.

Instantly one if my favorite foods. There's so much I still have to try. And I'm definitely planning a to the Philippines soon!

The sauce for the lechon kawali is a liver sauce. The sweetness usually comes from the type of vinegar we use. Its a coconut vinegar.

Every time I watch "First time trying Filipino food" videos, I'm always sad when they don't eat it with rice. You did it right!

Everything looks perfectly cooked that I could taste how good it is. Compliments to the chef.

The way you devoured all that food is so filipino, i mean im not even 100% convinced that it is your 1st time trying filipino food at all, the way you ate the bbq and adobo is so pro(dipped the rice in the spicy vinegar and ate it with the bbq chicken)❤❤

I immigrated to the US in the summer of 1990. I was 9 yrs old and starting in the 4th grade. Our other family members that were already here tried their best to let us know of the many social norms, the do's and dont's, but they failed to explain to me that bringing lunch from home was a "no-no" especially if you're bringing something exotic like Filipino food. Well on my 1st day, my Mom had prepared pork adobo over rice for my lunch and I still remember seeing the disgust reaction from my classmates faces when I opened my lunchbox aka Tupperware. Eh, you can say we were just kids back then, but it was the last time I ever brought food from home to eat at school, middle school, high school, college and I still hesitate to bring home food to work. Your reaction to tasting Filipino food is helping ease that childhood pain in me. Thank you.

I was smiling as I watched you enjoying the Filipino food.

yup, and Filipino mukbang videos will always give you a high views as always.

Girl in Hawaii we say “ you can pound.” Hawaiians and locals can pound. My father made the best adobo but then everyone’s parents make the best adobo. Dad was born in 1887 so no shoyu and when he got done it was roasted brown all over after the reduction with the right amount of vinegar,salt, bay leaves and garlic. I don’t know if it’s Visayan Style as he was Visayan-adobo not soupy but roasted 🌺

All the love you from all of us... 🥰🥰🥰Thanks for giving so nice reactions on these Filipino dishes.. 😘😘😘

You're eating the food correctly!! 🥺 So many people try Filipino food without rice and it's drastically different if you eat the 'Ulam' or dish on it's own. The rice just takes the edge off.

As a Filipino Asian American, I have to got to say thank you for highlighting Filipino food; and enjoying it!! I’d love another episode into it, there is some things you missed or maybe they didn’t have; and I’d love a look into our Filipino fast food!! I just found your channel, and I’m amazed by you pronouncing the Filipino foods; I’m curious on your cultural background?

Very authentic when you put rice and lechon kawali pork in the bowl with little sauce in it,and that's the high light of the taste 😀 and traditional,no doubt that's the best part, I 💕 it. Keep in mind we do that only at home 😂😊...

I really like the fact that you eat it with spoon. Thank you.

I cannot take it anymore 😂😂😂😂😂 I feel hungry even watching you. Oh boyyyyy..😂😂😂

Thats how u do it.u are a natural filipina

The Lechon Kawali needs more frying to give the skin that golden brown color and crispy, crunchy, crackling texture when you bite into it. It comes with a tangy and sweet liver sauce.

I must say that the Pork Adobo looks really good. You can tell that the meat has absorbed the sauce pretty well to make it flavorful and that it has been cooked to tender perfection.

Wow i cant wait you to visit philippines and try street food here

You'll need to learn how to use the spoon and fork Filipino-style: Use both hands and use the fork to spear the food chunks or to place the grains onto the spoon. Hold down the bigger chunks of food with the fork and then use the edge of the spoon to slice the food into smaller portions; this means that you won't need a knife most of the time. If you don't learn the two handed style, it will take you much longer to eat.
