    Hey Friends! Thanks for watching as always! ONE CORRECTION, Betamax (grilled pork blood) refers to the Betamax cassette tape, not the Boombox. Ave misspoke, please take it easy in the comments. I will always DELETE comments that are negative (and not constructive) - there is no room for trolls on this channel. IF this is you, please unsubscribe. This is a place of POSITIVITY.
    Also, BIG NEWS! I just launched my first Facebook Watch Show!!! If you like my content, please go follow along for shorter Travel Deeper episodes here: facebook.com/traveldeeperwithgareth/
    LOVE YOU ALL and see you next week from Northern Luzon!!

      😂😂😂 i watched this video for 3x before i write down my comment about those street foods.
      First: street foods are good if the preparation were good.
      Second: those are good if the dipping sauce were good, as well.
      Third: those street foods are good with soda drink or beer as your drinks. Panulak( street language for drinks)
      Fourth: balut is good if its warm and only 16days old not the 21 days old.... and the vinegar is a little bit spicy..
      Conclusion...next time....choose street foods with good dipping sauce and much better to buy on a small vendor rather than a big volume vendor. Because at the small street vendor, they cleaned and cooked it properly. I am not saying that the big bolumes are dirty.. My problem with the big volumes, they have the 3minutes rule of cooking/grilling. In the end, sometimes, its uncooked. While for the small vendor they did it really well.. Goodluck for your adventure at the North..Go south as well...God bless!!!

      Good job @Gareth, Im a Filipino, i tasted those but not a fan of street food fried or grilled, for my parents did not raised us to buy such. Due to influence of my peers I was able to taste those, its cool to try but not advisable for daily consumption.
      @Gareth enjoy the Philippines.

    Love your shows Gareth 💗 My favorite so far is the one where you stood the exact spot your grandfather took a picture at so many years before. If I may say sir that you remind of the late great Anthony Bourdain on how you find the great hidden spots, that everyone wants to go to but didn't know they were there before watching your show. Be safe on your travels sir and can't wait for more shows.

    My eye hurts now... been watching your Philippines vlogs since 2pm and its already past 8pm here in Toronto... it was so nice to see places that me myself as a Filipino has never been to. Me and my wife loves watching your vlog and we enjoyed it a lot. I got hooked up into watching vlogs like this only this week. I've seen few other vloggers, they look good and fancy but yours is different in a way that you explore not only the beaches and food but also the people and its culture. Good luck man to your next adventure! Philippines a lot more to offer even a year is not enough. Greetings from Toronto!
    Btw, I felt jealous! Its getting cold here now... uggghhh missing that warm Philippine weather.

      I’m Filipino and I was cringing too, I ate balut before when I’m still a child but not anymore, when I learned that SDA should not eat duck I stopped eating balut, also SDA doesn’t eat blood and now I am a vegan so that must be the reason why I was cringing but at the same time I was laughing too.

You are more... Normal. It is nice to see you suffer trough a few things. It makes the things that you actually like more powerful. And it gives me hope for our people.

  • @davidmar442
    @davidmar442 6 років тому +5

    It might have been kinder for Ave to explain how to eat the different items rather than leaving you to fend for yourself, it is like being given a banana for the first time and having to figure out how to eat it. And why would you give someone something to eat that you wouldn’t eat yourself? That’s such a great way to introduce someone into your culture ... You’re a brave man to eat a duck foetus from a street cart vendor ...

    Awesome video, Gareth! Filipino street food looks so interesting and really delicious! Haha, if the Betamax tastes like liver then I know I probably wouldn't like it...liver is one of the few things I really dislike, but I'm glad you liked it! Did you eat the bones of the Adidas?? I've heard balut looks far scarier than it actually is...but I've also heard some people actually get feathers with some of the more developed ones. Good luck on your hunt for more balut, man! One of my favorite videos of yours. I love how respectful you are of all the different cultures you showcase in your videos!

Thanks for great videos and thanks for being positive person, I need positive vibes right now. I was worried that you will be choked when you put the whole chicken feet or the "fingers" part in your mouth and did not spit out the tiny bones ha ha ha

    I was going to comment on the Betamax thing but I see you got it covered. Yeah, it was the precursor of VHS from what I remember. I actually do not eat chicken feet, but the squid balls and fish balls I eat whenever I visit home. Balut, I love the soup and the yolk, the rest of it I give to someone to eat. There's another version called balut penoy, and it doesn't have a developed embryo, just basically egg yolk.

    When you go up north, drop by Aling Lucing's in Angeles City for some real sisig. Aling Lucing is considered the person who made sisig famous. There's also a restaurant in Angeles City that serves "batuteng tugak" which are frogs stuffed with ground pork. Sorry, I can't remember the name of the restaurant but it's along the main street so it should be fairly easy to find.

    Great videos. I spent two weeks in Metro Manilla in 2004. Kwerk kwerk is the best. I was given Balut but not told what it was. I thought it was just a hard boiled egg. Those crunching bones! I felt sick for hours. The energy in the city is incredible. I've also been looking at your Norway videos. I spent two weeks there too and am going back in September. There is nothing to beat travelling.

    I suggest that for starters it is best for you to try a 16 day old balut next time around. Also ng pork intestine and pork ears are good finds as well. Visit the bbq stalls around the vicinity of UP😊

    balut is also healthy.. actually that chicken feet, there is a recipe called ASADO, the chicken feet is soooo tender and you could actually chew everything.. AND IF YOU'VE ONLY TRIED TO BITE THE BONE, in the chicken feet, it is the most delicious part, and by the way, chicken feet are rich in collagen..

    I agree with others, you should have your own show. Very positive attitude at same time honest. Hats off to you for trying balut.when I was there in 2018 I was gonna eat balut in front of my daughter & wife who is Canadian. Just to see their reaction. But I couldn’t do it. And I’m Filipino lol

    Actually here in Vietnam, they have grilled chicken feet as well but to reduce the creepiness and weirdness of it they split it in half...

    And this video is very entertaining. The Balut’s natural flavor is actually delicious. It tastes like chicken broth. Try the broth without the vinegar. It’s amazingly delicious. As for the entire thing, we Vietnamese people eat it with salt and pepper mixed with lime juice. And this herb. I just don’t know what the English name for the herb is but it’s delicious with the embryo. However I don’t like the squishiness of the embryo. I usually eat the yolk and the white part

    Just stumbled into this vid recently and I highly applaud it but woman Betamax is a video tape player whilst boombox is what they called radios with tape decks back in the 80s. They called that food betamax because the shape reminds you of a Betamax tape. Oh and both are products of Sony. Again the Betamax is the uncle of the VHS player..
