Being Filipino I love the dishes you two got! Typically people like to default to adobo pancit and lumpia, but I love that you got more less known dishes by non filipinos!
As a proud Filipina, thank you for sharing your love and support for Filipino food. I now have a Filipino restaurant to go to whenever I’m craving Filipino food and when I’m in Oahu, Hawaii. That’s the beauty of Filipino food. It’s a mixing pot of different influences and culture from the many years of colonizing and trading. Adobo and Lechon came from Spanish influence. Pancit Bihon came from Chinese influence. Pinakbet came from up North of the Philippines; a take on Chop Suey using fresh vegetables. Kare Kare is Indian/Malaysian influence. You two should try Sinigang (tamarind soup) if you haven’t tried it yet. Thanks again. Look forward to more Filipino foodie videos. 😊👍🏻
Thank you guys, This is the video I’ve been waiting for you guys trying Filipino foods. The only comment I have is about the lechon kawali supposed to dip this in mang Tomas lechon sauce or the Filipino banana ketchup thats the best way. The halo halo try to stir it all up all the ingredients together and its more ono. After all, halo halo means mix-mix. 😊
Amanda you are Beautiful & Felix you are Handsome, a compliment. Thank You for Loving Filipino Food, I appreciate Asians that support Asian cuisine and you two are amazing of your choice of Filipino Food. Pinakbet is really Healthy and the variety of vegetables are good for you.. karekare is the Curry version of the Philippines, peanut flavor, but we also have some our own Curry coconut flavor Curry, Adobo, pancit, You sure know how to pick my favorites. Mix the Halo-Halo from the bottom up all the ingredients mix it. I love you both. ❤ ✌☮ 💘 😊..
Oooohhhh now I know where to go eat next time we visit fam in Hawai'i. Definitely want to try the halohalo w/ dulce de leche. So glad you got pinakbet & karekare. We love all the veggies in it, especially bittermelon.
💕😋All my favorite Filipino dishes! Kare kare, pinakbet, (tripe is not my favorite either, especially when it’s chewy and ruffly😁) 👍🏼adobo is definitely a staple, and the lechon kawali is a must have too. 🥰Perfect dishes to enjoy! Making me hungry atm! Thanks for sharing another wonderful eating adventure! Larb does look like Chamorro (Guam) kelaguin!😊 Pancit Palabok and beef caldereta is also another must try for Filipino dishes. 👌🏽Rounding it off with halo halo was perfect. The caramel looked darker than the usual leche flan that they include which I definitely love too. Nata de coco is my favorite in it! Amanda, we enjoy a lot of the same things!❤️
My wife’s side is from Pampanga. My MIL cooks great kare-kare and caldereta. I don’t know about Filipino food being healthy. I told my family in Quezon City if I lived there I would have gout in the first year and a heart attack the second. Especially because I loved going out to the bars on a hot night having a cold San Mig Strong Ice and sizzling sisig. That was heaven. Love the video. Didn’t know there was a Filipino place just down the road from where I grew up.
Oh that’s so good! I’m jealous that your able to eat such awesome food from family!🤤 I guess Filipino food seems healthy to me cuz I don’t eat much meat and mostly veggies 😉 lol
Great job featuring the Filipino Food dishes!!! The pinakbet looked very good as did the kare-kare both looked very authentic!!! As far as the halo-halo goes, the exact translation is; mix-mix thus keep the lid on and mix the dessert with your long spoon until all the ingredients are mixed together!!! Also the block of caramel was leche flan… absolutely love following you two, keep up the great work!!!
Hello Felix and Amanda, awesome video guys made me really hungry. Yes you guys are right, Pampanga is supposed to be the best culinary spot in the Philippines. I have a few friends from there and they can cook awesome Filipino food. Maybe you guys can visit the Philippines someday and enjoy some local cooking there. Take care and have a great one.
Adobo is really easy to make and few ingredients. You can do chicken or pork adobo, or combine both meats in one dish. There are many good recipes online. Kare kare is not a curry even though the name sounds like it. Traditionally, it's an oxtail stew with veggies and other (optional) beef parts like tripe and tendon (no intestines) in a peanut, soy-fish sauce braise. Most Filipino entrees (ulam) need to be eaten with lots of rice because it's saucy and salty.
Filipina here! Growing up, we were learned to put some lemon or calamansi on our pancit. Also, halo halo is supposed to be mixed before you eat it so that way the ice cream get's on the ice! I'm glad you guys tried out pampanga kitchen, it's definitely very similar to my family's cooking. Next time you go definitely try out their pork guisantes and pork igado (if you like pork intestines!) :)
your pronunciation is on point guys!! I mean, this is coming from a first gen Filipino Canadian that doesn't speak Tagalog but still! I love that you guys like our food
Yes exactly you choose the best kitchenette around your place Pampanga is the cullinary capital of the Philippines,you do taste more dishes & enjoy happy eating,
Adobo have a lot of versions, there are done with coconut milk with turmeric or turmeric alone without the cocomilk or adobong puti thats without soy sauce but plain sea salt and adobo sa alamang(lightly fermented baby shirmp)
Thanks for the great video! Was in the area today and didn't know where to grab food so followed your recommendation. Try the dinuguan and sisig next time you go!! 😋
Love that you tried kare kare! It’s even better with bagoong. My mom makes it with ox tails and tripe. Kare kare is the only way I eat tripe. Lid off the halo halo and I mix it up before eating it. Halo halo is mix mix 😉 another great video, mahalo ♥️
Kare kare is always paired with bagoong to bring out the best taste of it. And you're right, original kare-kare has oxtail and tripe. And the lechon kawali is also good with Mang Tomas (liver sauce) You could also try their breakfast menu - longanisa, tapa, tocino with eggs.. yum! Normally with halo-halo, toppings are Leche flan and ube ice cream. They might have put some chunk of caramel instead.. and lid off!! 😉
And I wanna thank the both of you.. my family went to Hawaii last week to celebrate my birthday and your vlog really helped a lot to give us some ideas - as far as places and foodies to try!
Great video Amanda and Felix! We just visited Hawaii and went to the spot you recommended- Pampanga Kitchen and oooh man! Food was really good! My dad is from Pampanga in the the Philippines and he loved the food! Thanks for the video guy! Keep doing what you’re doing. Mahalo 🤙🏼
Salamat po (thank you) for promoting Filipino food! P.s. Try mixing the halo halo first…sometimes the sweetness is at the bottom 😊. Also, Magnolia Ice Cream has great halo halo too. P.s.s. You gotta make a vid of all of Felix’s puns ..too funny 😂
Awesome!! You guys still gotta try Juliez in Kapolei. I’m confident you won’t be disappointed in their Lechon Kawali. Also their Pinakbet and Sari Sari is the bomb. I really enjoy your videos thanks for sharing. I am born and raise in Hawaii but moved to Oregon in 2000. I usually watch your videos and make a list of the places I need to go when I visit . Congratulations on 20k subscribers. I wish you both continued success!
There are many vloggers out there that butcher most names of our food. You two have the pronunciations down that it’s highly believable. Great descriptions - great job.
Oh heck yeah! Now y'all have got to go to Jollibee and grind da kine filipino fast food. The spahgetti, cheeseburger, and fried chicken are mandatory! Love y'all. Mahalo!
Great video again guys. Hey, you guys should try Alena’s Filipino Resturant. I believe that they won best Filipino Resturant a while back. Btw, regarding halo halo, when I was in the Philippines, they would mix the halo halo throughly before eating. It tastes different when it’s all mixed up, I think it’s better when it’s all mixed up.
looking forward to trying all of the filipino dishes; another hidden gem that we wouldn't find on our own. Also want to have the Larb from the Thai place; I've only had it once before but really liked the dish. Thank you for sharing again.
We've been meaning to try this place out. Now we know...run don't walk to try out this place!!! Thanks for the info. We know where we need to go when we are looking for some good Filipino food, and we don't need to drive as far as Waipahu anymore
Hi guys seeing that food makes me think of my Filipino uncle and aunt that were the best people and great cooks I really miss them sometimes thank you both see ya in the next one
Regarding the kare2 you need to partner it with the shrimp paste or the bagoong to taste it more better and the pancit bihon also best eaten with kalamansi.
I wish we had Filipino restaurants where I live, but no such luck. Hawaii has a lot of amazing foods, and I enjoy your videos sharing all of these with us. Thanks so much💛💚🍜🍛
Ayeee my people’s food! Lol, even though I don’t really know much about my own cuisine 😬 I gotta admit 😅 I gotta learn! I like to make pork adobo in my insta pot and my mom/aunties used to make filipino food a lot when I was kid. Never knew what was in it, but I always stayed away from the ones with veggies 😝 Now, I’m more open to eating anything with veggies! Everything looked so ʻono 😋 What Felix, I love my Okra!! Ooo and what a perfect way to end the video with some halo halo!! I remember my mom making it for us when I was young. I’ve never heard of caramel in halo halo either!
Lechon Kawali is boiled in aromatics, dried off, seasoned with salt, then traditionally deep fried in a wok (kawali). So, it's a bit different from Cantonese roast pork belly. But there is a Filipinized version of Siu Yuk called Lechon Macau.
You guys just keep making the best vlogs ever!!!! I wish you could upload daily 😍 I'm struggling with a debilitating eating disorder, and your vlogs help me heal my relationship with food 🤍 Mahalo!
Love your videos. So glad to stumble across your videos on here. I've been binge watching them so I can get ideas on where to eat for my upcoming trip! 😋
I’ve never had Filipino food before but I’m going to for sure. I really want to try halo halo it looks delicious 🤤 lol at the flying insect whatever that was ! 😩
Honestly, the best place to get Halo-Halo is from Magnolia since you can choose your ice cream flavor. Definitely lid on for when the ice cream starts melting.
Like#364 😱 Omg you guys chose my faves!! Perfect choice and lmao Amanda got me cracking up when she said Filipino food is healthy and then said “I think” 🤣 but glad you guys love Filipino food!! Gotta watch out for the gout, high blood pressure, and cholesterol lol. People are for sure missing out if they haven’t tried Filipino food yet 😋👌🏽 Thank you guys for sharing!! I’m definitely gonna try that place out cuz I only go to Golden Coin when I’m craving for Filipino food. Now you guys got me craving and omg the Halo Halo!! Oh you guys should try Filipino Express in Waipahu too (it used to be called Kambingan’s) and then Julie’s in Kapolei.
If you’re ever in the Kapolei area, you guys need to try Juliez Filipino restaurant 😋 that’s my fav place for Filipino food and I’m Filipino 😉their lechon kawali , sari sari, dinaguan and shrimp sarciado to name a few is so Ono! Thank you for this video 🤙🏾
Yooo! I loved Pampanga Kitchen the first time I went! I need to go back soon. I got their sisig and loved it! I also shared the mung bean with my girlfriend, and she also got the chicken afritada (menudo) and man… so good. I want to try Elephant Shack, but it seemed closed when I went there, many months ago. Larb is one of my favorite Thai dishes though! So stoked to see you guys feature it.
You guys always get us excited about trying another restaurant that you’ve visited! As soon as we see what you’re eating, we make plans to give it a try ourselves!
@@AmandaFelixEats perfect time now as the PHL borders have just reopened to fully vaccinated tourists from visa-free countries like the US. Pro tip: find a Filipino restaurant there that serves Caldereta, Afritada and even Asado. In this way you experience not just the Asian flavors but the Spanish side of PHL cuisine. Kain na!
Bulalo, Koreans can eat that! I just had some Barbacoa from ‘Chipotle’. It taste like that! Pancit, lechon, and ‘Mang Tomas’ sauce! Fried fish and rice. Egg’y fried rice and lumpia or any kinda rolls.
Great video again guys. Hey, you guys should try Alena’s Filipino Resturant. I believe that they won best Filipino Resturant a while back.

Looking forward to your next video!
Kare kare is usually made with oxtails and honeycomb tripe and lots of veggies. They didn’t give you some bagoong to season the kare kare??? Kare kare can be bland so you need the bagoong to add salt to it. I’m glad you highlighted Filipino food, our cuisine needs to be more prominent because it is very tasty and can be very nutritious too with all the veggies!
In eating pinakbet... you dont eat the veg by piece... you tend to mix it so that it balances the taste... especially for the ampalaya since its bitter
That food looks really delicious. Haven’t been to that food court in years. Going to have to make a visit soon. Hardcore Elena’s customer since I live so close …

Hey Amanda, if you liked pinakbet may I recommend that you try vegetable dish cooked in coconut milk called Ginataang Kalabasa.
Adobo have a lot of versions, there are done with coconut milk with turmeric or turmeric alone without the cocomilk or adobong puti thats without soy sauce but plain sea salt and adobo sa alamang(lightly fermented baby shirmp)
Pampanga Kitchen. Very good food. Love the sinigang and dinakdakan.
Gotta try that next time! Mahalo
I just love the way u comment on our loval food. Thank you guys for the positive comment. Enjoy the esting. More power.
Good to know about Pearl Highlands Center, Pampanga Kitchen and Elephant Shack. Everything looked so ono!
Worth checking out if you're ever in the area!
Try a little speck of bagoong with every bite of Kare Kare and rice. Kare Kare is pretty mild and needs that salty bagoong flavor.
We gotta try it with bagoong next time😋 mahalo!
Glad you two liked the food you got. Im filipino. Love seing people enjoy what our cuisine has to offer. More power to your channel. :)
Ooh I love The Elephant Shack! Goong Nam Prik Pao, Kapow, iced thai tea.
We gotta more next time! We were so tempted to try their Thai iced tea😋
Thanks for the great video! Was in the area today and didn't know where to grab food so followed your recommendation. Try the dinuguan and sisig next time you go!! 😋
You guys try sisigs , morcon or sinigang if you like sour soup with pork , chicken , shrimp or seafoods .

Yumm. Being Filipino I love all the dishes you got.
Yay! Glad we didn’t disappoint!
Lol Felix GOING TO TOWN on that Halo Halo while Amanda does the promos!
Lemme put y’all on game. Try mang tomas sauce with your lechon kawali. Fiiiiire
Our go to sauce for chicharrones! Always got a bottles stocked🤙🏻🤤
Ohhhh yum Kare Kare 😋. Try it with bagaoong (fish sauce) the next time but not too much or else you’ll get traumatized lol.
Great video again guys. Hey, you guys should try Alena’s Filipino Resturant. I believe that they won best Filipino Resturant a while back. Btw, regarding halo halo, when I was in the Philippines, they would mix the halo halo throughly before eating. It tastes different when it’s all mixed up, I think it’s better when it’s all mixed up. Looking forward to your next video!
Kare kare is usually made with oxtails and honeycomb tripe and lots of veggies. They didn’t give you some bagoong to season the kare kare??? Kare kare can be bland so you need the bagoong to add salt to it. I’m glad you highlighted Filipino food, our cuisine needs to be more prominent because it is very tasty and can be very nutritious too with all the veggies!
We love Filipino food especially because
All those veggies🤤 we look forward to showing more Filipino food in the future! 🤙🏻
Another place that has awesome Filipino food is
San Nicholas in kalihi
Go try !
They also have awesome chicharone
Our go to in kalihi!
Y’all need to hit thelmas for some pork adobo fried rice n the Thelma’s special
That sounds ono🤤🤤🤤
A's bistro in Ewa Beach was my favorite Philippino restaurant of all time! Sad they closed a while back.
So many great places closing their doors🥺
Oh the lechon looks good!
Did they have dinuguan and sinigang?
Try sinigang, sisig, and bicol express
The kare kare bite is with the bagoong. The bagoong elevates the whole bite.
Glad you guys enjoyed the Filipino food..
We love Filipino food🤙🏻🤤
They also have another one in kaneohe at windward city.
In eating pinakbet... you dont eat the veg by piece... you tend to mix it so that it balances the taste... especially for the ampalaya since its bitter
I LOVE PINAKBET AND ADOBO!! I'm so jealous. Ahahaha!
Yay! We love it too🤙🏻
I love tripe…you gotta try Korean tripe stew. My mom makes a mean one
You both are certified Filipino!
Felix reaction when Amanda actually gave him the Halo-halo...(your actually gonna share)😂👍
How are both of you fulfilling this weekend? And I am confident Both of you did nicely and continue to succeed extra, best wishes
Mahalo Panjakarn🤙🏻
Pampangga was the the bread basket of the (Spanish period, that included the provincia of Bataan as they were part of each other)Philippines
That food looks really delicious. Haven’t been to that food court in years. Going to have to make a visit soon. Hardcore Elena’s customer since I live so close …
We will have to try Elena's!
@@AmandaFelixEats check out their instagram page for their monthly specials. Good variety!
Enjoy! Watching from Australia. Pinakbet is a little healthier with veges sans bagoong too salty otherwise.
It is salty! But at least the veges I guess 😅 Mahalo all the way to Australia! 🤙
Amanda the brown stuff is called YEMA it’s similar to Chantily
Oh wow 🤤 thanks!
@@AmandaFelixEats YEMA is our old time favorite Pinoy classic candy
Food looks delicious! Thanks for another great video, Amanda and Felix!
