Eating like the locals in San Miguel de Allende, Mexico

[@Indianinthemachine]

Mexican culture has so much heart, and it's evident in the food. Holy Moley!! I lived in San Miguel specifically for the hotsprings. Thanks for your video, another reminder of how amazing Mexico is, and how great it is to be alive.

[@AlwaysBeChanging]

We agree about how much heart Mexican culture has. We didn't realized you had lived in SMA! So cool! It is great to be alive and be able to explore so much of this world :)

I really enjoyed your vlog.A big thank you for the awesome recommendations. I would like to provide some info. The cecina you mentioned in the molcajete is beef jerky. Towards the end-the dish with the mole sauce is called an enmolada. This same dish can be made with different sauces (typical fillings are cheese, shredded chicken, shredded or ground beef and shredded turkey). Enchiladas are also made with shrimp, fish and lobster). Enchiladas are also made with a red chili sauce or a green tomatillo sauce. The name of the dish will change according to the sauce. For example: enchilada (chili sauce), enmolada (mole sauce), entomatada (tomato sauce) and enfrijolada (refried bean sauce). Enfrijoladas typically have a cheese filling and are topped with crumbled queso fresco and chopped raw onions (this is a breakfast dish). Cheers 🥂

[@AlwaysBeChanging]

Thank you for all that info! 😊

My mouth was watering the whole time i was watching your food trip. Oh how i wish i could eat authentic mexican cuisine esp freshly-made tortillas. And i love the hot spring resort. It was beautiful (and your whole family is lovely too). Can't wait for your European trip.

[@AlwaysBeChanging]

Thank you! We're looking forward to our European trip too :) Those fresh made tortillas in Mexico are second to none! So good!

[@jonteknu]

Holy Moly! Thanks for sharing us this video. Learning much about Mexico especially this place considered the best city. Interesting places to see there & those foods i can't wait to taste them too in the future. Very nice vlogging style as always, not boring, pro level, simply amazing. Take care always wherever u go.

[@AlwaysBeChanging]

Thank you so much 🥰 So glad you liked the video. Makes us want to go taste everything all over again. 😋

[@Sheila-sx2sq]

Omg, drooling over Los Milagros’ offerings & not even finished watching yet!❤️

[@AlwaysBeChanging]

The Molcajete was the best!!! It really surprised us how delicious every aspect of it was. 😋

[@Lil-Mike-55]

Cool family vibe! Love it!😍

[@AlwaysBeChanging]

Thank you 🤗

[@ingridnh1]

Some great recommendations for our next visit to San Miguel! Also, you guys have to visit Valle Los Senderos next time. It is a lovely private eco development with natural pools, winery, restaurant and beach club with cabanas. It’s just 10 mins outside of the Centro. Great for a fun day in nature!

[@AlwaysBeChanging]

Valle Los Senderos sounds wonderful! We'll have to check that out next time we're in SMA. Thanks for the recommendation :)

[@valeriasanchez9086]

Love it!!!! 😍 Thanks for sharing our traditional local food to the world ✨

[@AlwaysBeChanging]

It’s our pleasure! We love experiencing things through food 😋 Thanks for watching!

[@orlandomaldonado8890]

That girl Brooklyn is just the perfect fit for San Miguel de Allende, she's so - sixties - hippie - hipster - artsy - and so on. I need a daughter just like that before moving my art workshop to San Miguel de Allende. ❤

[@AlwaysBeChanging]

She is! She’s so talented, creative and fun. She even made most of the clothes she wears. She loves everything art 🤩

[@orlandomaldonado8890]

Wow 😍

[@Koya_Sipanlog_Express]

The Spaniards brought corn to the Philippines from Mexico unfortunately didnt bring along with them the Mexican cuisine. It would have been nice to have taco and tortilla (as an alternative to rice) as part of our food culture so heavily influenced by Chinese and Spanish cuisine.

[@AlwaysBeChanging]

It's almost as easy to create tortillas at home as it is to cook rice... maybe a project for this weekend? 😀

[@Koya_Sipanlog_Express]

@@AlwaysBeChanging To be honest I havent tried or even attempted to make taco or tortilla maybe this weekend haha

[@albertr.2576]

The Spanish introduced a great many things to the Philippines and the world from Mexico. For example, corn 🌽 chayote (sayote), squash, pumpkins, tomatoes 🍅 avocados 🥑 vanilla, chocolate, achiote and turkeys 🦃 to name a few.

[@williamneil6208]

😆😆😆 You're the best guys!... Thank you for sharing your videos... Keep it up!

[@jexondiongzon790]

I have always been fascinated by the Spanish language, culture and food. When we were colonized by the Spaniards, the greatest influence they brought upon us was the Spanish language. They somehow influenced our food too. Even though I have never been to any Spanish speaking countries, I felt like I've been there. Thanks to you. Loved your authenticity and how detailed you describe every food that you ate. So mouth watering. Always be safe. God Bless your family.

[@AlwaysBeChanging]

Thank you so much 😊 We love discovering more about destinations and cultures through food. It’s a tasty way to do it 😋

[@Latinoamerica837]

thanks for your excellent words !! im absolutly agree with you. Thanks Spain

[@Latinoamerica837]

The worst thing that happens in our countries is organized crime, which has spread to the fear of so many tourists. Those cartels and guerrillas are the most stateless cartels hate our countries, and I am afraid that people will stop coming because of that.

[@storres1368]

There’s absolutely nothing good about being colonized☹️

[@thefamilyvandy]

Love it! Makes me hungry 🤤

[@AlwaysBeChanging]

Thank you 😋

[@ramonalcala1932]

I just adore watching your vlogs, so it makes me sad when not many others do. However, the fact that you are enjoying what you are doing is what really counts, so don't worry-the Philippines is one of the countries in the world that supports you.Keep safe and God bless all your trips.

[@AlwaysBeChanging]

Thank you for continuing to follow our journey. We appreciate you 🥰. We also very much enjoy what we do and we love exploring more and new places. One of the best things about traveling is discovering more and more how many more places there are to see in this world. They’re all worth exploring! 🤗

[@kimortizportraitart]

Can’t wait to try these places on our next trip.

Watching from Philippines 🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭

[@AlwaysBeChanging]

Hello 👋 to Philippines! Thanks for watching 😊

[@snacktivist]

Los Milagros is my all time favourite: reliably good service, predictable, great margaritas and daiquiris!

[@AskXel]

Dear Lockwood fam, Why ever so fit and thin and trim ? From cooking Mexican feast at home to a whole day next of eating street food the size of meal each stop --- no bulging tummies or flabs? Unfair. Oh, that food was topnotch, wish we had more Mexican food here in 🇵🇭 , Great video again guys you are best at describing what you are devouring. Loved this vlog. ♥️

[@AlwaysBeChanging]

LOL We try to have as much balance in our lives, including our diets, as possible. This episode was shot in a series of several days, so we didn't eat it all at once. But the food was top notch! We love finding the best food that a culture can offer. It's such a great way to explore.

[@edgarandre5216]

San Miguel and other towns in Mexico keep the colonial architecture intact and the food is the best

[@AlwaysBeChanging]

Great food and great restaurants with unbeatable views 🤩🇲🇽

[@iflipover]

Hello hello. Sorry haven’t watched last few vlogs. Just so many new content creators and so many Christmas content to support. Also depends on what shows up on my reco to add to my playlist. Anyway, we love Mexican food. There’s a reemergence of Mexican food (bec of birria) here in the P.I. esp in the main cities (Metro Manila). Food here looks yummy. I saw how you were raving about it on IG 😊

[@AlwaysBeChanging]

So happy you were able to watch eventually! We really appreciate your support and it's great that you seem so supportive of so many channels, I'm sure it means a lot to them too. We'll be back in Metro Manila in January. Maybe we'll bump into some yummy Mexican food when we're there :)

[@larutadelalcohol6739]

Winderful nice vídeo congratulations

[@AlwaysBeChanging]

Thank you very much!

[@mrsgomezmd]

This made me crave Mexican food. 😂

[@AlwaysBeChanging]

Us too :) editing it and rewatching it makes us constantly hungry again.

Hello, nice vlog, watching here from the Philippines...

[@AlwaysBeChanging]

Hello 👋 We miss PH. Thanks for watching! We’ll be back soon 😊

[@janetceniza8091]

We will be in Cebu and on Mactan Island in 9 days for 3 months. Leaving cold Wash. state.

[@AlwaysBeChanging]

@@janetceniza8091 sounds heavenly! We hope you have a fantastic time.

[@elinnyrop-echavarry5068]

Aww I LOVE this! Our family is looking to go on a similar adventure to yours. Although we will wait until the kids are a little older, like yours. Now we're going on shorter trips and are heading to San Miguel for four weeks in January 23. I wonder if you have any tips on learning simple videography and video editing? Would love to create a beautiful video of our small adventure to cherish for ever. Thank you!!

[@AlwaysBeChanging]

Wow! You’re going to have a great time there! I’d be happy to give you as much advise as you’re looking for. Feel free to send me an email [e-mail]

[@amandawhite7438]

Dreaming of those gorditos!!!!!

And I (Phil) and dreaming of the thing holding that Gordita 😍😍😍

[@selfscience]

5:38 In my particular point of view that is the gringo way of drinking tequila, it’s frown upon among Mexicans to lighten the tequila with salt and limón, specially expensive tequila.

[@lyndafernando7238]

Lovely family, it's nice to see your comment here that you will go back to the Philippines. If you go back there, try to do this TAO Expedition. I watched this foreign vlogger Adam Radcliff along with other European Nationalities and they went to some beautiful Islands which I would say a Paradise....

[@AlwaysBeChanging]

Sounds incredible. We’ll have to check out that vlogger too. 😊

[@iflipover]

Not sure roughing it is something kids might enjoy at a young age.

[@janetceniza8091]

husband speaking street food can be tricky especially buying it at night while waiting for a bus to take us back to Flida's Aunts home. Picked up some chicken, on the bus I try to bite into a piece, hard - my wife quickly grabs it. It was the chicken head. First few years of marriage my wife would try to trick me into eating something she liked but knew I would not. Cow tongue, small piece - looks like steak, and she won't say what part. I cut a piece, it cut like butter, so soft. I ate one small piece and said no more. I will not eat anything from inside an animal. ( no matter how good ? _ Dennis

[@AlwaysBeChanging]

Oh no 😱 Chicken head. We are at least able to appreciate the food we try when we know what it is. We wouldn’t have enjoyed balut if we didn’t know what it was before diving in.

[@janetceniza8091]

@@AlwaysBeChanging Your family has an amazing tolerance for any food and the kids too, and Colton isn't afraid to pick up anything that climbs or crawls. I know who mom calls when she finds a bug in the house. ( some of the spiders that get in our Mactan home are as big as your hand., I could use your son for sure. ).

[@AlwaysBeChanging]

@@janetceniza8091 😊 he’s not afraid of any creature. You’re right, he’s the one everyone calls when they see a big in the house. And he never kills them, he always lets them outside.

[@Sheila-sx2sq]

I can see that I have a month of eating out Every Day ahead of me for February *insert puffer fish here* 😂

[@AlwaysBeChanging]

Good thing it’s such a walkable city! You’ll get plenty of exercise to balance all that delicious food.

[@selfscience]

9:55 That thing about secondary taco is not what I would recommend, those tacos taste better with two tortillas. You should eat your taco in a way that it doesn’t fall apart. I would probably use the secondary taco concept with a taco that have a big bone in it, like chicken leg or ribs.

[@matthewcox9624]

Looks delicious,. Can't wait to try when I go there in a couple of weeks. Mexicans dont use salt and lime to drink tequila. That's an American thing. For people who have never been taught how to drink tequila. 😂
