To my fellow Filipinos please don't fall for this! This is clearly pandering it is insulting! BA knew that a reasonable fraction of their audience are Filipinos. For years BA barely covered Filipino cuisine. Why now BA? Ah yes because BA is losing subscribers because what they've done with their original POC staffs. As a Filipino I'm offended by this!

She’s a great teacher! Explains everything clearly. I hope she comes back n does a segment with Brad, Cris or Carla! 😍

BA, brava! It's insane that you've now featured two amazing Filipino chefs and even more insane that Melissa gets to show the BA world a unique dish that might not be something a lot of people would necessarily like initially (I'm Filipino-American and I've never tried pusit pancit before lol)but now that it's in your channel a lot of eyes get to see the awesomeness that is Filipino cuisine which probably many have never tried before. This is what it's about. Inclusivity begets knowledge and understanding and appreciation and diversity and ultimately full stomachs hehe. I've been a fan of BA for a while now and miss the old crew but this new direction is inspiring and just beautiful to see. Representation truly matters and my Filipino heart is doing cartwheels.

Is it possible to somehow know bon appetit is compensating talent appropriately. I hate to fall in love with another food content creator under the illusion that they are being taken care of.

God, it’s SO satisfying to see Filipinos killing it in the culinary mainstream. It’s been a long time coming and I’m so happy they get to share a little bit of our culture on this broader stage. Congrats, Melissa! Your dish looks amazing and your dad’s brand of humour feels so familiar to me, like an uncle I had growing up. Can’t wait to visit your restaurant once they open up the border again. 🇵🇭

I'm not very into seafood. But this looks INCREDIBLY delicious!! 😍👌
