$70 Meal at Dampa Seaside Market Manila 🇵🇭
Вставка
- Опубліковано 5 жов 2024
- Manila, Philippines 🇵🇭 - It has been a long day, hence my energy in this video. I discovered later on that there is more to this market, but my lack of energy and people trying to get me to their stall or restaurant made me give in to quick. Food was nice, but should I have been paying this price?

It’s expensive😞you could have gone to Spiral buffet in Sofitel. They are the number 1 buffet in the world if i am not mistaken.
I'll go there next time in Manila, thank you 🙏🏾
pro tip: whenever you see a saucer and clamansi and soy sauce, youre suppose to make your own dipping sauce with that. ratio roughly 1 tbsp soy sause is to 1 whole calamansi. youre welcome.
Thanks for explanation 😁 I'm sure I'll be doing it wrong many more times
Simsimsam you better visit Vikings buffet it is beter than eatin in Dampa
I'll check it out 👍🏾
Hello Sam always watching your Vedio .. interesting very nice roaming around the Philippines 😊❤
Thank you Daisy 😊
Enjoy your yummy food...
Thank you 😋
You’re paying city price so it’s pretty pricey. If you want low price, you must go in the province near by the sea and you’ll get a bargain.🤠😎
Hope Fipinoes don't abuse foreigners when it comes to pricing of our goods, make it reasonable. It is our reflection of who we are.
Most of the times I'd rather go for a buffet restaurants serving seafood rather than paluto. You can maximize eating seafood in a buffer then in the paluto you don't even know if they are serving the right quantity of seafood you purchased.
How can we say LOVE PHILIPPINES if we are not loving those who visit our country and treat them fairly enough when it comes to pricing of goods and a better treatment as a tourist so they can spread words to others to visit us. Always take care and God bless Simsimsam 🙏😇❣️🫰
Their price is same as ours ,All their products are not comes from manila it was from other islands and provinces,we known dampa prices in their expensive sea foods especially lobsters and big crabs.
So, us here in Manila or N.C.R. if we want to eat cheaper price seafood we call our relatives from bulacan province so we can request to eat lots seafoods for cheaper prices if we visit them.
I'll check the buffet next time I'm in Manila 🙏🏾
HELLO Guten Morgen simsimsam ... always remember this.. if theres a good guy. always theres a bad guy... Buffet is much better.. yah it looks yummy but very expensive.. be careful next time.. enjoy and stay safe.
Would be to easy otherwise 😅 thanks
Please visit Siquijor island, a neighboring of Cebu where you can experience the most laidback-Pacific islander life. It's very peaceful there with a nice beaches too.
Good stuff . Love that you got to go places I couldnt even go and im filipino
Enjoy touring around and take care
Thank you, I will 🙏🏾
Thanks for the heads up, we're planning to go there soon😊 bon apetit!
Everyone is suggesting that buffet place in Manila, maybe you should try that 😁😋
Try the all you can eat buffet in Okada or spiral. Plenty of food choices. I am sure you will love it. Take care Sam 🙂 ❤❤❤
Sounds good, next time 🙌🏾
For the experience which you can never find in fancy buffets and fresh pick. Fresh seafoods are abit pricey similar here in Korea I also buy fresh seafood in seafood market and cook it there just like you did, It would be 150-200usd for 1 and buffet is just 30usd-50usd. Keep exploring the Philippines for the best experience.
That is Expensive for small amount of seafoods.... you should have ask first how much are the shrimps and squid.....at least you experienced it.
Its the demand... Less competetion higher the price ....
Shrimp in general is expensive
pls try sofitel spiral buffet its like 100$ but its unli and so worth it has like hundreds of dishes including seafood, cheese etc.
Yeah, wasn't easy for me. So many things happened at the same time 😅 I'll learn from it
The buffet sounds nice
More subs to come sir
Be safe Sam! Keep exploring the Philippines and you’ll be on your way soon enough to 5k and 10k. Mabuhay!
Salamat Mimi 😊
Dampa is my family's go-to place for fresh seafoods. P2.5k to P3K for a kilo of live lobster is more than fair (always opt for the live ones despite their higher price. It's easier to find frozen lobsters in supermarkets and regular restaurants). Shrimps are way cheaper than prawns. Live prawns cost around P500 to 700 per kilo. Having them cooked at the restaurant is what makes dining at dampa expensive since they charge you per dish. Dampa is for big groups. Your meal could probably feed three people. P1.5k per person isnt that bad, considering that it's difficult to find good seafood in Metro Manila. As you travel farther down South to Aklan, Agusan, Surigao and Cagayan de Oro, you'll find the same fresh seafoods for a fraction of the price in Dampa (fresh oysters for 2 dollars!). For Manila folks, it's cheaper to eat at Dampa than to fly to Aklan.
Nice, thanks for the tips. Haha yeah, only problem is that I usually eat for 3-4 regular people 😂😂
The comments were very divided on the pricing, and the reviews also totally vary 🤷🏾♂️
But I've been suggested a lot to check the spiral buffet instead :)
🌟 👍Magandang gabi brother!👋😀 Ingat always!🙏☝️
Magandang araw po, salamat 🙌🏾
Look yummy eat well…
masarap brother!
Keep safe sir
I love seafoods bro😊
Me too 😋
Mouth melting so yummy but expensive 😅 try to go sofetil buffet one of luxury buffet. Anyway enjoy eating
Ok next time 😊
You're smart eating in the restaurant ordering lobster is expensive you done a good job injoy while you are there have a great day in good luck
Actually a cheaper investment for more subscribers, maybe million after 1 months. good job.
expensive my friend you been scam that bald guy🤭
Minsan gusto mong kutusan itong mga ito, nagbibigay kahihiyan sa ating turismo, ok lang sana tumubo, pero ‘wag namang garapal…’diba?
If you visit the provinces near the sea there you will find the cheapest and freshest seafoods. Here in Manila its expensive because they have to travel the seafoods and it will go through a lot of taxes :)
Yeah I understand, makes sense
DAMPA = shanty or hut ... btw lobster in ph is really expensive cause its fresh... its hard to get fresh lobster if ur not in south east asia 😂 cause all crustacean do spoil very fast
Yessirr new video lets goo❤
It looks sooo yummy 😋 so jealous haha 😄 thank you for sharing I want to try to go there atleast I have an idea about the prices be safe God bless Sir ❤
Everyone keeps saying to go the spiral buffet in Manila, maybe check that out 😁
Oh goodness, so much seafood to choose from. I'd go crazy not knowing what I want to eat. Thanks for another awesome video! 🤙💜
Right? I was a bit overwhelmed 😂
@@SimsimsamTravels Being behind the screen looking in is an experience in itself, can't thank you enough for all you do! 💜🙏

blind daumen hoch für diese chilligen reisevlogs
🙏🏾😊
Expensive but looks so yummy.
It was 😋
It is really expensive in Dampa. The price they gave you was quite reasonable.
Saarappp❤❤❤😋😋😋
Sam! You had 8,344 views on this vlog in 3 days compare to your 1 year ago vlog in New Zealand that only got you less than 3k views… it’s obvious, your future career is in our country! Prepare to extend your VIZA!
Dampa is fresh seafood. Expensive but good food fresh . Seldom we eat there.
Yeahh gi go go
Those guys fooled you, it's so expensive for 3k
Seafoods in dampa are expensive compare to the prices in province
It is expensive because it is alivester.😊
It is expensive if you eat alone. Its a place for big group. You can share the expenses.
Yeah that makes sense
Hi Sam! You had a fairly descent meal though I must admit that those market people did charge an arm and a leg! It’s not a mistake on your part but just consider it as a learning process and part of your trip adventure. Yes, as one guy said, you could have gone and booked yourself to Spiral Buffet in Sofi Hotel, about few minutes from China Town and certainly could have gotten the most of out of your money. But if you still would want to try and eat st this Spiral buffet make sure to bring a humongous appetite, have a light breakfast, skip lunch but take a very very light snack and schedule your booking for dinner time! Reservation and paying them on line is your best bet and be there at least half an hour or even 1 hour earlier before they open! Last, ask the reservation if they are serving “Eat all you can Lobster” JUST TO MAKE SURE!!! Or else, you kinda defeat the purpose of you going to the best Buffet in Asia even if they have huge number of choices of International food but as a recommendation you just can’t go wrong if the buffet serve an all you can eat Lobster and of different versions! You must try and it will help your channel grow! I personally think that your viewers are so looking forward to this venture of yours!
I guarantee you that it will give you more subscribers! Make your vlog title catchy, like “MY BEST EVER FIRST CLASS BUFFET EXPERIENCE IN MANILA PHILIPPINES!!!” Remember to prepare yourself with a “HUGE APPETITE.” GOOD LUCK & ENJOY!
PS. Find out and ask if there is a dress code, reason for this it’s because it’s a 5 Star Hotel, you just never know. Don’t assume because you are a foreigner you would be exempted from their protocol, so I strongly suggest for you to find out all the things you need to know before paying. After all, this is a big buck you’re spending…
Thanks for all of that 🙏🏾 I'll be sharp before I go there 😉🙌🏾
@@SimsimsamTravels
I am so looking forward to this vlog so soon; I know that this will gather you a huge number of views and likes! Strike the iron while it’s hot!
Immer wieder interessant! 🎉 weiter so 👍
Danke Sandwich
Try to hike in the famous mount pinatubo, just few hours from metro manila
Thats expensive, you can go to Vikings at nearby Mall of Asia for only 1k and eat tons of different food and seafoods and that 70 dollars will give you 3 days of good food.
Try to go to hotel sofitel buffet
Lobster is really soo expensive here much more in city
Look yummy
It was 😋
Capiz is the seafood capital of the Philippines
I used to live in roxas city in capiz before moving to US. If you want seafood that is the place to be.
sam: "pouring soy sauce on the garlic rice" .
me: "stares violently in filipino"
😂😂 sorry
Too much i will not go there 😂 😂😅😂
EXPENSIVE BRO!!!
Yummy..its really expensive in that place...thogh they cook well...
much better to try buffet...i believed there are around the area too.👍🇵🇭🇧🇭
Next time definitely brother 🙏🏾
Bargain is the way to go. Thats why I bring my family to bargain for me because they know Im from America😅
Haha yeah, I'm not the best at it as well 😅
@SimsimsamTravels it's okay. Glad you visited the Philippines.
I think if you will compare the price of what you bought and ate is higher than in provinces but definitely reasonable compared to restaurants in Manila.
man you need to be witness the "ALAY LAKAD" today .. its an event where everyone is walking towards antipolo shrine, you must experience this one bro...
I was already out of Manila, it's all pre recorded
@@SimsimsamTravels the man that approach you and sell you lobster and anything are type of people you should not entertain..they taking advantage of the likes of you, if i were you, i'll not go back to his store, the way they approach you are not good and disappointingly. be careful always bro.. but remember 99% of Filipinos are kind, your just experienced that one that included in 1% of the bad guys... take care bro.. enjoy the Philippines..
That place tourist price..go to Cubao market direct to seafood marke..
your not getting scam lobster is expensive maybe a little bit overprice but you making good youtube content with them.
Tourist trap!!!
I had lunch there four years ago snd and it was expensive but enjoyed the meal
toooo expensive bro
in fairness to the shop owners, I think they gave you a fair price.
Comments are very split on that one, but it was an experience 😊
So expensive ingat
Basta lobster Mahal talaga Hindi yon over price,Manila Yan pricey talaga.kung wala Kang pera sempre Mahal.😆😆😆
Having the money doesn't mean that I'm willing to spend it 🤷🏾♂️
Come to Davao Brother and Samal Island
its better you choose the 40% discount
Haha, probably would have been the same price
Good if you eat it with me group of 4 to five person . It not expensive
JUST GO TO SEAFOOD RESTAURANT IN THE CITY ITS MORE CHEAPER. THOSE FRSH SEAFOODS MARKET ARE CROOK AND HIGH PRIZES!
Yeah, now I know 😂
MAHAL TALAGA DIYAN😊 KAHIT SA PALUTO MAHAL DIN TINI-TIMBANG MUNA BAGO LUTUIN😊 KAYA DOUBLE KILL KA😊
Yeah that's expensive!!! You could've gone to a 5 star buffet for $100 and eaten as much food as you want for 3 hours straight.
I'm looking forward to do that 😁😋
I think you paid the exact price you should have tried the restaurant of the shop where you bought the seafoods because it is for free.
I didn't know they had their own restaurant... I wasn't really able to look around without getting hassled unfortunately
Red tide season is up
U should have gone to Spirals buffet. $95 seafood amd more.done.by 5 star chefs.
Di naman, been there several times, cooks lng nag luluto pag may event lng saka nag luluto mga chefs dun
I'll check this out next time I'm in Manila
Lobster is expensive.
Dampa is such a price trap even for locals. Negotiation will get you a bit closer to the fair price.
Seafood you buy so expensive tho be careful brother to that people
You got scammed brother. But, we all did. Charge it to experience.
Only way to learn
The leftover food could be to go tell them
🙏🏽🙏🏽💙
For the Algorithm
💯
Hi Sam...I would just like to let you know they sell it not fair price....it is too much...what a shame...I am so sorry for some people who takes advantage you...the lobster too small and with no good....too much...please ve guided and stay safe
All good, you have to make mistakes to learn 🤷♂️ I'll know better next time 😊👍
Bro uhave to try bulallo in tagaytay i
It looks good 😋
Tourist trap. Thats expensive
They give high prices to foreigners, taking advantage too bad
Expensive price not even the US charge that price 🥲
not worth to buy seafoods there. It's really expensive. u can eat in "Eat all you can" resto for half of what you paid there
Yeah, next time I'm smarter (hopefully) 😁
I got scammed the last time I went to a Chinese sounding name restaurant.I should have 22:41 just gone to Hong HK Master cook.
Very expensive
That guy is killing you with his price. That's too much better just eat straight in the restaurant it's much cheaper. Wow prices are scary high.
🙈 I learned from it (I hope)
That’s highway robbery going to those places. If you do, you’re asking for it.
You make lobster as pulutan ,too big redhorse
the Scam is real..😂😂 5k + 1k?!! i cost 3k only.. 😢😢
tinalo pa luxury buffet
Super scam
Unfortunately 🤷🏾♂️
You’re a tourist, so they’re expecting you to pay no question even giving a tip..
Hmm ifeel like those lobster doesnt have much meat
Could have been more 😁🤏🏾
for 4900 u could have eaten at the most expensive buffet in ph
Next time 🙌🏾
