CLASSIC FILIPINO DISHES: Trying the tastiest dishes like crispy pata, tapsilog and lechon

[@PureDetour]

Let us know what your favourite silog is? The tapsilog and bangsilog were to die for.

[@eck2x]

There’s a local fastfood joint called SEX, short for Sinangag EXpress and their silogs, particularly the tapsilog, are delectable. They are also available for delivery in food delivery apps. But this can get tricky, colleagues and I would joke about having SEX for lunch. :D

[@Zee_1003]

of all the foreigners I've watched who ate silog dishes, you are the only ones that did their homework and explained it perfectly well for other foreigners to understand what it is. kudos to you for doing that.

[@PureDetour]

@@eck2x, You're full of awesome recommendations. Turns out there are none of those here in Cebu. But there is a place called sinangang station here. I may have to check them out

[@travelwithjuza5338]

My favorite silog is Liemposilog. It's fried pork belly (Liempo), Sinangag (garlic fried rice) and itlog (egg). Here in our country, you can mix match the Silogs, we even have sisiglog, if you're fond of sisig :)

[@PureDetour]

@@travelwithjuza5338, Love sisig, but I am intrigued by the liemposilog. I have yet to see it on a menu of any kind. But thanks to your comment, I will find it somewhere here in the Philippines. Thank you so much

[@Jackweskey]

Wow..a lot of Pinoy cuisine.., I love that crispy Lucheon..make me hungry now..😋👍

[@PureDetour]

Makes me hungry just thinking about it! Thank you for watching

[@envillain]

This is honestly one of the best Filipino food review I have ever watched. Filipino cuisine usually gets a bad rap especially when compared to our neighbors’ cuisine so it’s refreshing to see a couple who clearly understand and appreciate our dishes and their flavor profiles. Thank you.

[@PureDetour]

Wow, thank you! Such an awesome comment

[@markcruz7778]

So far one of the best Filipino food reviews

[@PureDetour]

I love the fact that you two are not picky with food. Other vloggers either have weak stomach, don’t eat pork, meat, fried, salty, vinegar, sweet. Mmmm I love the ensaymada shop you went to.

[@PureDetour]

Hahaha. i consider myself a somewhat adventurous eater. And you are correct, Quick melt is awesome

Hi Marco, are you from Cebu? Do you live in Cebu?

[@dakilangt.v.2180]

These classic Filipino dishes are just a few examples of the rich and diverse cuisine of the Philippines. Each dish has its own unique flavor profile and cultural significance, and trying them is a great way to experience the country's culinary traditions. Enjoy your culinary journey!

[@PureDetour]

Thank you so much. I firmly believe there is no better way to learn about a countries culture and it's people than through their food

[@ramposhusdaipan66]

I honestly love you for researching the meaning of silogs, they are my go to meals if I wanna eat something good yet still affordable (I always order SisigSilog). Crispy patas and Lechons are usually served during special occasions coz they're kinda expensive in our budget 😅

[@PureDetour]

Thank you so much!

[@KuyaToby]

Oh I'm hungry now.. mouthwatering.thanks for sharing this Filipino food.

[@PureDetour]

Thank you so much for wathcing.

[@katl6058]

I appreciate both of your adventurous sides when it comes to trying out different flavors. Many people would be deterred just by the smell of certain foods (i.e. shrimp paste or the salted eggs). What I really enjoy about Filipino foods are the different flavor profiles due to various cultural influences from different parts of the world. Thank you for showcasing how enjoyable and tasty Filipino foods are. 💕

[@PureDetour]

Thank you so much. But in fairness i have been in SE Asia before and I have been here in multiple countries for the last 8 months shrimp paste is not new to me. 😀

[@denniscarreon4180]

Love seeing you guys enjoying our dishes! Keep on trying without fear, you are in good hands! Yummy!

[@PureDetour]

Thank you!😀

[@budolbes1317]

You guys are on a roll! Sinigang & tapsilog, bangsilog- as real as it goes in non-fancy restaurants. Power on guys and stay longer in the Philippines. You are a beautiful couple and yet so down to earth in your traveler’s persona. Pilipinos can discern your sincerity👍

[@PureDetour]

Thank you for such an awesome comment. And thank you for watching

[@eduardochavacano]

How is FRIED EGG a big deal in the Philippines? Filipino workers in the big cities were forced to eat FRIED EGGS for lunch and dinner. FRIED EGGS are cheaper than vegetable, that is the only reason those Tapsilog exist. The Filipino masses deserve better meals. No one in Cambodia or Laos will be going out for dinner just to eat FRIED EGGS and Rice with garlic.

[@PureDetour]

@@eduardochavacano, Well there is where you are wrong. In fact, my favourite dish in the whole world and extremely popular amongst locals tfrom Thailand is called Pad Krapau. It's minced pork stir fried with Thai holy basil and chilis. Served with rice and wait for it..............A FRIED EGG. One of the most popular street foods in Cambodia is fried rice with eggs. And a very popular one in Laos is called Kua mee. Stir fried noodles with fried eggs or omelette strips Both Malaysia and Indnesia are know for either hard boiled eggs and in some cases half boiled eggs being served with numerous meals

[@bashersbeware]

@@eduardochavacano wahahahahaha! How does it feel to get slapped and be exposed as an idiot? The egg is there to break monotony. It's also there as an extender as it is better to see a plate with 3 things on it instead of just rice and a viand. Want me to go on? Plating purposes. An egg occupies 1/3 of a plate. It gives you a sense of satisfaction to see a full plate before you, which is value for money. Next time you research first before insinuating something you're totally ignorant of. Why don't you try selling food at P120 per plate that are not Silogs and have better portions than the Silogs you're belittling. Let's see if the masses can afford them or better yet, let's see at the end of the day who gets their return of investment first, you, who sells P120 plates with better portions of meals or the Silog makers, who also sells them at P120 but gets a more mark up than you. I think, later on you'll also be also forced to sell Silogs because your P120 plate with better portions is not sustainable from a business standpoint.

Have you tried Caldereta, menudo? They're similar since both have carrots and potatoes in their recipes, both are pretty saucey too. Another soup dish aside from Sinigang is Bulalo, it is a beef dish, perfect for rainy seasons. Next is Lengua (I forgot the English term but the dish is really creamy). I recommend them if u haven't tried it yet

For your next 'silog dish, make sure you request for the egg to have a runny yolk. Then try to mince and mix the egg with the sinangag. The runny yolk of the egg adds a lot of richness and texture to the sinangag.
