This is probably the best (so far) Philippine food vlog made by a foreigner. It is so immersive and tried some foods that many foreign vloggers have failed to show. It's a mix of what's popular and must-try and also some not so well known but equally great food to try. The puto-bumbong in the end is a perfect ending to this episode.

Hi Mike ! Glad you enjoyed Elar’s Lechon. It’s considered one of the top 3 if not the best Lechon in the country. It is actually considered an institution and is usually the Lechon of choice for corporates and big high society events. Thank you for promoting our foods. We are very proud of it and we love it.
