As a puerto rican, I can tell you, we take a lot of pride in our food! We are very passionate about our cuisine. A lot of people don't know, but the piña colada everybody loves actually originated here. Thank you for showing the world how good our food is. 💖🇵🇷
Puerto Ricans all over the globe are super appreciative of Mikey for educated the world on a cuisine most know nothing about. When you go back for round two of alcapurias and find more bacalaitos, we can tell you're genuinely enjoying it. Only thing your missing is home cooking. Wish someone would've invited you into their home to try some homemade food, you would be in love. Buen provecho
Idk about love the pr food, i have been living in sj for 6months and i havent found anything good to eat. Pr food are not known to the world to be good, hispanic foods are not known to be good.
@@dangda-ww7de that's a unique opinion and all yours, though. Disagree whole heartedly! Cuban food is the 💣, Dominican food is another cuisine most know nothing about but is delicious, several South America countries rock the culinary scene and then there is Mexico!!!! As hard as it is to admit, as a Puerto Rican, they lead the latin world with their cuisine and are up there with the leaders of the world in food.
@@dangda-ww7de asians are white cant you tell by your yellow skin duh talkin down on puerto ricans you know how many asians and Chinese are mix with Puerto Ricans on that island you trippin smh and too think i wanted too eat Asian food thats crazy
I was born and raised in Puerto rico 🇵🇷 and seeing this gave me so much joy. Seeing you go to my island has made my day. Ive been following you for a few years now and this is your best video yet. God bless you and all my people from Puerto rico. Cuidense mi gente y nunca se olviden de donde vienen.
Loved this video! Did not know many of these dishes. I would love to visit that beautiful island. Saludos hermanos Puertorriqueños de un Mexicano que ama su país. Edit: Gracias a todos! Se me va a cumplir el viaje a esta bella isla. Espero poder visitar a finales de Junio. Se aceptan recomendaciones para mi viaje. Iré con hermanos y sobrinos.
I’m delighted to hear a non-local speak so enthusiastically about our street food 😄 And piononos are the best food under the sun. I hope you got to try them.
I've always wanted to visit Puerto Rico, now I want to even more. Thanks for sharing. Also, it's hilarious how Mike's mom is still trying to get him to eat his vegetables. 😂
I love seeing people try our food! As a puertorican I honestly like talking and learning about tourists when I see them! It's also a pleasure to see them actually enjoy the food :D The video was really fun
Puerto Rico 🇵🇷 is such a beautiful island 🏝 to visit!! The cuisine is super delicious!! It is rich in culture also!! No wonder so many amazing talented people came from this awesome island!!! ♥️🇵🇷
When I went to Puerto Rico for a wedding, I stayed in Rincón. Lemme tell y’all, I love Spanish food and the PR food stands had some of the best cuisine I’ve ever tasted. This owner of an empanada stand across the street from our condo made me special spicy empanadas every and only charged me 50 cents. I still crave them to this day.
So glad you enjoyed the trip to my home island, please come back soon (hopefully when the pandemic is over) so you can continue to enjoy the island. I hope that you get to try Chinese food on the island the next time you come because the two cultures fuse very nicely when it comes to food.
Thank you so much for being so respectful and positive about Puerto Rico! I hope you really enjoyed it! Puerto Rico during the pandemic is a tiny bit quiet, so hopefully when it ends, you’ll be able to listen to music even when you pass the streets! Que tengas buen día y bendiciones! 💕💕💕
Puerto Rican here to praise your wonderful videos. My parents, born and raised Islanders living in the mainland US , enjoy watching this video, you did such a great job.
Loved every minute of this video and the way you enjoyed our food. I really hope you'll be back soon! There are so many hidden gems outside of the tourist trap that is San Juan.
@ family and friends what… We are hispanic and we are American. In our DNA is Spanish blood from Spain. I am trying to understand what you are trying to say?!!
If you make it out here try to explore different parts of the island, San Juan is just a small part of it and there's beauty and fun things to do everywhere, do some good research and you'll be amazed at what you find 🙂
Puerto Rico 🇵🇷 waoooo siempre con sus ricura de comida soy Boricua 100% cada Pais cocina diferentes comidas he provado comida de diferentes paises y cada Pais tiene una delicia en su comida bendiciones a todos en este dia
I’m Dominican and can’t wait to visit Puerto Rico and try some boricua food everything seems so delicious ! The cuisine and ingredients reminds me a lot of DR !
Now this is what I call a warm happy family. The New Year's Eve home-cooked dinner sure looks appetizing. And the road to your cabin is just what I need to get away from the city.
As a tropical Island, the weather is great, the food is amazing and the people really so nice and friendly, I am so glad you enjoy your trip to Puerto Rico 🇵🇷 you are inspired to enjoy everything and sharing your wonderful experience with the world ❣️
Soooo glad to see that you are enjoying our island. In the “alcapurrias” first one was definitely different from the second one. First one the “masa” was green banana . And the second one most likely was “yuca”.
Yup, I knew they were different. The ones I'm used to are a lot more browner and are made with both Green Banana and Yuca....I've had the ones with just green banana and while they are still tasty I much prefer the ones with both!
I miss home so much and this video just fed my soul. Thank you for the love and appreciation you showed to our food!! I read somebody in the comments mentioned the Chinese restaurants from there… pleaaaase, you need to try those as well.
So glad you enjoyed the food! Puerto Rican food is not spicy and although some people might put hot sauce on theirs it’s not how it’s traditionally done. Just to be clear there’s nothing wrong if you wanna put hot sauce on your food but just wanted to clarify that our food is not spicy because a lot of tourists think that it is. Personally my favorite chinchorro at Piñones is El Boricua and you gotta go to Guavate in Cayey next time where they have lechón asado(roasted pork on a spit) and truly classic local food in the mountain.
You went to my beautiful island of Puerto Rico??!! So excited!! 🙆🏽♀️ I’m glad you enjoyed the food and the people. We puertoricans are very friendly. Yes, go back por favor 🙏🏾
My mom always makes us bacalaitos and alcapurrias 💕 🇵🇷 I'm 2nd gen Puerto Rican and I've unfortunately never been to Puerto Rico. My grandfather grew up in San Juan so before I die I need to go and visit his childhood home. And get some mofongo and pasteles 🤤😭
This video made me smile but also miss my island even more tonight can't wait to go back next month will be taking some friends with me too I hope they enjoy my island too. Thank you for being so respectful toward our food and culture we take a lot of pride in our food it's such a big part of our culture and it's one of the things I miss the most about my beautiful island
There is a roadside restaurant here in Wall township NJ called Maria’s Kitchen it is Puerto Rican comfort food it is delicious 🤤. I haven’t been there is a while but it’s so good
Visited campamento pinones today and I'm so glad we did. The food was amazing just like you said. The one thing I tried that wasn't on your video was beef that was surrounded by soft sweet plantains and then battered and deep fried. It looked like a large hockey puck and it was absolutely amazing. The large fish cake was my second favorite.
Almost to 4 mil subscribers 🤩 Best wishes to you and your wife 💕 BTW, your mom’s cooking is so good, looks like restaurant quality. Love how your mom interacts with Christine. 😊 I am in the same situation: I am Korean, and my husband’s parents are from HOng Kong and don’t speak English...So when we meet, it is the same situation.
I’m so glad you visit my beautiful island of Puerto Rico 🇵🇷 you can’t never go wrong with the experience there food, places and the atmosphere everything is amazing 🤩
@@therenaultsfunton144 that one is called Bacalaitos IM not sure If I spelled it right but it should pop up when you look it up in any search engine :)
@@therenaultsfunton144 - as someone already stated, it's called BACALAITOS, and they're thin seasoned wheat flour and cod fritters. Only the professionals, like those you saw in Piñones (PR-187 from the SJU Airport to the Loíza downtown) make them correctly. The homemade* version is easier to make than you think if you Google for versions of the recipe... * if you find real codfish is too expensive you could substitute for salted pollock
Thank you, thank you!!! For visiting my island of Puerto Rico and showing some of our amazing cuisine… Puerto Rican we are very proud people and we take pride of our island, culture, family and cuisine.. 😊❤😊
This video brought tears to my eyes, and I'm not even Boricua. but I lived there for 7 wonderful years and still fantasize about moving back ... I remember going to the Kioscos at Luquillo Beach to eat Tacos de Jueyes and Piononos with beer, lots of beer, but even stopping at the kiosquitos on the beach near Levittown to eat Bacalaítos and maybe Cuajo (looked awful but tasted great, like pork), and going at 3 a.m. to the stands on the street in Ocean Park and Isla Verde for Mofongo and Mofongo con Caldo de Pollo, the best hangover preventive ever ! The musicians and Casino Croupiers used to go there when they got off work. And the stories of how sickly babies were nursed back to health with Guarapo de Caña - which occasionally we could buy from somebody with a Guarapo Press by the side of the road - there were still cane fields on the outskirts of Dorado in those days, back in the 1970's .... and the Asaltos Navideños, and the Asopao and the bottles of homemade Coquito .... wow did THAT pack a punch.... this video has REALLY been a trip down El Sendero del Recuerdo ...
I've been following you for quite awhile and the way you describe your culinary feasts are on point. Now, for my surprise, seeing you having a blast with the food on my motherland was a treat beyond my expectations!!! I've been trying for decades to describe the taste and intrinsic flavors of our cuisine but you my friend, glide around, under and within the task with fluent narrative and description. Thank you from the bottom of my heart and the praying for you to keep on having so much fun in that journey we call "life"...
Thank you for this awesome video! 🤗 I’m traveling to Puerto Rico from NY on Friday! The food looks so amazing, this video made me even more excited for my trip! Also, your parents are precious and your mom’s food looks soooo good!!
The thing is that you can find a different taste everytime, cause the seasoning depends obviously on the cook. Over all something to indulge every once in a while. Our Puerto Rican food is one to enjoy. Our mofongo and seafood is a must!
Gracias por visitar mi isla y saborear esos manjares típicos. Me reía cada vez que se comía una fritura más y otra. Hasta que llegó al segundo bacalaito. Dios mío que rico se veía. Yo lo hubiese terminado con una limonada, por aquello de la grasa 🤣🤣. Gracias y sigue informando de otros lugares. FELICIDADES 🎉🎉
Thank you so much for the video! Honestly I can say you did your research well and you got a pretty accurate representation of some of our staple Street food! I'm really glad you enjoyed the food and I hope you're able to return one day to try even more tasty things :)
Thanks for sharing the street food experience in Puerto Rico, now I am craving everything. We have some similar food in Jamaica just prepared a bit different and different names. I can't believe you eat so much food though! 😋
I love all of these food. I am Puerto Rican I wish I had been to the island but maybe one day. I LOVE all of our food, it always hits just right and feels like home lol.
Thank you for making this video and for letting other people know about the food of my beautiful island. We los Boricuas love to eat at those places. You are welcome any time you want.🇵🇷🇵🇷
Thanks for sharing your Puerto Rican experience, looks like a beautiful Caribbean island with great people and food. Will consider it for my next vacation. Your parents are so caring and cute... Happy Year of the Tiger to the whole family. Christine is part of it, so much love to her too
I'm really glad you enjoyed your stay in Puerto Rico. It also makes me really joyful that you enjoyed some of the food and cuisine we have to offer. It warms my heart that highly admired people like you can show these videos to the world and bring to light our little Island. Also whomever recommended you the spots should get a shoutout because those a are some of the best that P.R. has to offer.
my gorgeous little island, not only is the food amazing and fresh, but my people are the warmest and welcoming you will ever find anywhere, so glad you had a great time.
Que alegría q viniera y pudiera probar nuestra comida callejera. Definitivo tiene q volver pues falto probar muchísimas cosas más. Espero q lo pasara bien en Puerto Rico
Puerto Rican aren't Spanish and Hispanic and Latino until given back to Spain and getting independence only from Spain your Americans now this is American culture
As a Puerto Rican, this makes me miss my home even more. The nights are always partying, the food, the music. but more importantly my family. TE AMOR PUERTO RICO
came here to see your street food adventure in Puerto Rico. Thanks for sharing. Also, I love that you included your home-cooked meal once you returned to NY. I would love to try your mother's combination rice! And I'm gonna try to make eggs and jalapenos. Saw the dumplings you had. Now I'm hungry!
Honestly... Thank you! For showing the side of Puerto Rico that is Puerto Rico. I'm glad you enjoyed it. Next time though, ask for the yuca alcapurrias, they'll blow you away!
I just love the fact that he enjoyed the food from my home island😂❤️(next time you go you gotta try alcapurrias de hueyes and pasteles) you are gonna love it 😂👌🏼

Not sure if anyone corrected you on the alcapurria, but the batter is made out of green bananas Not plantains. ☺️ Glad you love our food ! ❤ 🇵🇷
In the center of the island and other places they use plantains mixed with other tubercles as well. They are better than green bananas ones.
Just loved watching you enjoy our foods. Fills my heart to see others love our food and culture. Thank you so much for such a wonderful video.

Thank you for this awesome video! 🤗 I’m traveling to Puerto Rico from NY on Friday! The food looks so amazing, this video made me even more excited for my trip! Also, your parents are precious and your mom’s food looks soooo good!!
The thing is that you can find a different taste everytime, cause the seasoning depends obviously on the cook. Over all something to indulge every once in a while. Our Puerto Rican food is one to enjoy. Our mofongo and seafood is a must!
I love watching people enjoy our food! God Bless 😊
Gracias por visitar mi isla y saborear esos manjares típicos. Me reía cada vez que se comía una fritura más y otra. Hasta que llegó al segundo bacalaito. Dios mío que rico se veía. Yo lo hubiese terminado con una limonada, por aquello de la grasa 🤣🤣. Gracias y sigue informando de otros lugares. FELICIDADES 🎉🎉
:D

came here to see your street food adventure in Puerto Rico. Thanks for sharing. Also, I love that you included your home-cooked meal once you returned to NY. I would love to try your mother's combination rice! And I'm gonna try to make eggs and jalapenos. Saw the dumplings you had. Now I'm hungry!

Honestly... Thank you! For showing the side of Puerto Rico that is Puerto Rico. I'm glad you enjoyed it. Next time though, ask for the yuca alcapurrias, they'll blow you away!
I’m from Puerto Rico and I feel so happy that you enjoyed our food. I hope you had a great time over there ☺️
