🇵🇭First Impressions of SIARGAO! First Day Eating Like Locals in the Philippines!

On our first day in Siargao, Philippines, we dove headfirst into the local and delicious Filipino cuisine. From savory adobo to flavorful Bicol express, we savored a variety of traditional dishes that hit the spot. After fueling up, we set out to explore the streets of Siargao, soaking in the sights, sounds, and vibrant atmosphere of this island paradise. Our day was so fun as we got to finally experience the unique beauty and culture of Siargao.

I really love the way you vlog. It always feels like you're taking us with your trips. Not too much of edits or whatnot, just raw footage. ❤

[@ChaseandShelbs]

Yes we try to keep it natural and raw for that reason. So that means a lot to us that you enjoy it. Thank you!! 🥰

[@ILoveYou88x88]

Shelbs is so smart. She remember about pork humba.

[@josephramos3140]

390 is overpriced wtf i know for a fact that is a tourist destination here in the Philippines though their dishes were pricey.

[@sassyguy8675]

Love how you guys are so simple yet happy couple. Will be following, thanks for showing us siargao, will definitely visit, from cali here.

[@ChaseandShelbs]

We are happy travelling together that’s for sure and our pleasure! And thank you for the support and for watching along ❤️

[@arnelsanjuan2310]

hello chase and shelbs welcome to siargao is one of the most beautiful island in the world.enjoy and be safe

[@ChaseandShelbs]

Thank you! 😃 it’s beautiful indeed!

[@AyawKUL-vi7bg]

​@@ChaseandShelbs never challenge the spice of chili of Philippines to eat you will regret it. Adding it just spice for food was fine ..you can handle it..but not eating it alone your mouth will be on fire.😂😂

[@rudericklaudencia1791]

Wow Siargao 😍 this is one of my favorite place here in the Philippines 🇵🇭❤

[@ChaseandShelbs]

It’s so great! ❤️

[@GERONIMOFERNANDEZ-nw2lh]

I want to see you in Sugba Lagoon. Don't forget to join the "Bar of the night" biggest party for all foreigners.

[@ChaseandShelbs]

It was close for rehabilitation when we went 😩partying isn’t really for us! Sounds fun though.

[@FLipSide5254]

Such a good price with all those delicious foods especially you're in the island like Siargao. Nice find Chase and Shelbs, You guys did your homework finding a good place and man they have so much food to choose, and price is such a steal.

[@ChaseandShelbs]

Yes there were so many option! And we love options haha more food the better 😍😍

[@valalicante6455]

10:29 the red shirt lady is ready to fight in the UFC, it's OK, I can say it, she's my mom.

[@angelotimonera7967]

Hey Shelbs .... you are the girl, knows a lot about our country Philippines and Chase is so lucky having you!

[@ChaseandShelbs]

Hehe thank you! I do my research. Helps that I’m a foodie too. We are lucky to have each other that’s for sure 🥰

[@AyawKUL-vi7bg]

​@@ChaseandShelbs if you are not a spice chili lover don't dare to eat chili you will loose appetite on eating.. Philippines only add it for some flavor but eating it alone can make your mouth on fire..

[@rmd743]

Siargao is simply a silent paradise. Hope it stays that way. It's getting so popular now.🇵🇭🫶

[@ChaseandShelbs]

Yes it really it! We were surprised how busy it was

[@MayumiP2288]

200% right Shelby! that is Pork Humba! 👏😋

[@ChaseandShelbs]

🥳🥳

[@cjladdaran9337]

We love you guys, not just eating Filipino food for content but you really appreciate the food you eat.... Pork Humba--- thanks for the info.

[@ChaseandShelbs]

We are so happy to hear that. Thank you 🥹 the pork humba is so delicious! We can’t get enough of the food haha.

SIARGAO WELCOME GUYS BRING A TOURIST TO SIARGAO MORE FUN TO PHILIPPINES.

[@dinobase88]

We’ve just toured your country Canada Toronto, Quebec and Montreal . Absolutely had an amazing time and experience. We love Canada and hopefully be back there soon. Now we’re in Cancun Mexico warmer weather 😊

[@ChaseandShelbs]

Love to hear that! If you make it back there, don’t miss Banff ☺️

[@dinobase88]

@@ChaseandShelbs we love Timmies donuts and muffins. Ohh Banff definitely next time. Can't wait to go back home in Australia so I can catch up on your vlogs. I'm sure I have missed a few now. We're in LA now and flying back this weekend 😊

[@denniscortez8264]

Yay, you’re one of the few foreign tourists that pronounce Boracay correctly!🎉

[@ChaseandShelbs]

Thanks! 😃

[@patrickezpa2749]

a carinderia fanatic here, evry lunch from.my work out and eat in carinderia one from thevother during weekdays 😊😊

[@dinoubalde3966]

The servings are alot ❤ Enjoy your stay in the Philippines I enjoyed watching your vlog ❤

[@badmatz8968]

I think the place with the statue is the municipal hall of General Luna

[@Nic_P85]

I love the vids...but and there is always a but. Bro, im sorry yeah you can ask her how it looks but in the end she isnt wearing them. Then you say i think in a couple of months she will pick out a hat for me..pick your own hat out and i have to be honest, i get mom vibes when you pretty much get shelbs to pick you out things snd what not. Sometimes it seems everything has to go through her to get approved. Again, she isnt the one wearing it, you are. Yeah, she may have to look at you but you should get the things that you likeand want to wear, not what mommy wants.

[@ChaseandShelbs]

Thanks Nic. We appreciate it. I’ll explain a little so it makes sense. I don’t have style. It’s as simple as that! I literally do not care what I wear. Before Shelby met me I wore random clothes. She’s helped me a lot, so whatever she likes I’m totally fine with. It’s as simple as that. I’m a very go with the flow type of guy and she has a type A personality, we get along super well and it works for us. 7 years and counting and she can pick out my hats for the rest of my days 🙏🏼😉

[@eod1589]

Glad you made it guys to Siargao and I’ve been waiting for this. So much in love with this video and I love how articulate you guys in terms of explaining the room and the place especially Shelbs❤😊😘🥰 Hope to see another video of your Siargao adventure guys….Love you always from Doms Olatan😍

[@MrWackydoodles]

Man, I love your girl's energy. So positive. Would love to meet someone like her.

[@Lexylangs]

I felt like walking walking you everytime your vids good job! 😘😘😘 Stay safe and gorgs. 😘

[@ChaseandShelbs]

[@faithpacis226]

lol 100 for foreigners? its only 50 to 70 pesos for us filipinos. so actually they raise the price for foreigners

[@josepalamenio1082]

Try mo lutong ulam. Dito 100 isang order pag baboy

[@ChaseandShelbs]

Thank you ❤️

[@davetibon]

Thats expensive vegatable for 50 pesos for Adobo 100 pesos in big cities like manila and cebu vegatable 30-40pesos and Adobo 50 pesos

[@RaizelEtrama-ef7mj]

you have to take a note...every island you went through...at least... 7,641 islands in the philippines...

[@Joseph-e9w6h]

8 miles from home is also living there in Siargao you might cross your paths..😂

[@LazarusEli]

I just like your ways of going to the karinderia for your local meals and go to the cheaper or cheapest but quality food services or goods... I luv that guys .... Pls be careful when walking along the roadside 👍👌😀😃☺️❤️❤️❤️🙏🙏🙏😍🥰🤩🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭travel safely have fun guys

[@LarginMoralesIgnacio]

please react to SB19 ILAW lyrics video AND LIHAM lyrics video :)

[@NeoKrypton21]

I don't want Siargao to be known as a tourist spot, yo be able to preserve its natural beauty. Prices would ho up and the will be polluted once it becomes a tourist place like Boracay! Sometimes I wish to be selfish sometime and juat keep Siargao for Filipinos only. Hehehe. Justho to El Nido, Coron, and Boracay instead. Leave Siargao alone. Hahaha. That's just the immature side of me there. But I like Siargao's natural splendor preserved really. I hope it would not be polluted, abused, or overused by anybody who's mind is just to earn money without any care for nature. Enjoy and stay safe, guys. God bless! 🫰✌👍👍

[@bisdakpinoy3428]

Rice is a booster.

[@HeroxNayeon]

Could be humba (hoomba). Does it have black beans? If yes, then it's most likely humba. Adobo, like you said, is more acidic and salty/sweet, while humba is often sweeter (or at least here in Davao).

[@frankiefernandez9225]

❤️❤️❤️🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭🔥🔥🔥

[@BenjaminBarcenas-xn1ck]

You all will not regret going to the Philippines to make an adventure and do vlogging because Filipinos are the best supporters especially to the foreign vloggers...

[@MRS.RM1]

We really enjoyed your video guys! Please make it longer 😩

[@ChaseandShelbs]

Aw thank you! Some are longer and some are shorter ☺️

[@tenaur-b3b]

Try visit iloilo guyz if you have still time. Hook up with Mike from That Philippine Life. He is from Canada also and living in iloilo. Hope you can meet up.

[@jamesgarcia7635]

Always foreigner go to Visayas or Mindanao but they dont explored North Luzon

[@cocomine8897]

Regarding those bed things; it's part of the business to balance the products and the price, you can't fit the spare parts of BMW into a Mitsubishi for the same pricing, or else you will be ended bankrupt.

[@weeble3140]

Be safe 🙏🏽 🙏🏽💙

[@harveygomonit5533]

Enjoy ur stay,would you mind going to cateel? Kulas the canadian become filipino has beachouse there.

[@ToLKentAdventure23]

Shhhheeeelllbb.... Use your hand.... Like chase.. 😂 we want to see.. Fil way..

[@Charlizzie]

1:15 4:44 I have a talk to the owner of the room. Owner needs an internet upgrade. Globe is very slow. Starlink is waaaaaay better. 11:15 Sharing food is good, but you forgot to remove the hat while eating and hid it in your pants. 12:09 You should've ate the skin part. 14:00 I feel you, man. I see why they pay you 100 pesos for each meal. It's the size. 38:06 The Milo here is made in part of malt, which is cereal grain soaked in water and dried further. It's tastes no longer chocolate at all.

[@lianricafort8036]

I miss siargao but its kinda expensive to have a holiday in there. 😅 But I will still definitely come back.

[@marjunmarcelocristobal2678]

True..Humba is Adobo Less the Vinegar and Much Sweeter.

[@kamoteque3986]

The price is too expensive for us filipino but for foreigners its cheaper for its dollar worth..just saying😅

[@hytek02]

I travel with 100% flannel cotton super soft blanket. I cannot handle stiff starchy sheets

[@jhomarabot9001]

I like this vlog, they were so into it with the culture and appreciate little things around. Good job ❤️

[@faithpacis226]

vegetables for us filipinos is only 10to 20 pesos. 50 for foreigners is crazy

[@effu9375]

Don't you guys have Filipino friends in the USA??

[@KomentKungKoment-fz1wz]

Shelbs is right with the Humba/Adobo mixup possibility. hehehe.

[@timboklolo6347]

MY GOODNESS BABE, YOU MADE ME HUNGRY❤😂🎉😢😮😅

[@vianrillorta37]

Carinderia is more affordable and more Masarap ❤have a fantastic day cool 😎 Couple

[@Assertiveman]

[@KomentKungKoment-fz1wz]

Stay hydrated guys! There's been a recurring heat wave these past few weeks. So bad, that classes get suspended to protect the kids!

[@paengsolo2047]

I love the fats in sinigang na baboy. And of course ADOBO.

[@SmilingFacegwapo]

Damn Bicol express its so very expensive 100 price what the fck

[@lianricafort8036]

The service in this karinderya isn’t nice, Why did he put all the viand in the plate instead of putting it in a separate bowl. I’ve been to siargao last year and ate in 2 different karinderya and they all separate the rice and the viand in a plate and a small bowl.

[@criscantiveros]

She's right about pork humba, bicol express is chili hot man

[@condemn1214]

You pronounced Surigao incorrectly and misspelled also

[@mayank__07]

Your vlogs are too adictive..And such a beautiful sweet couple you are and such a sweet talkative 💘.. And seriously I love to watch your videos keep it up guys..👍when will you get married ? May god bless you both 🙌

[@ChaseandShelbs]

Aw thank you so much! We love to hear that and hope you keep coming back for more haha. Cheers 🙏🏼

[@johnrosellerignacio2717]

I hope you meet the 8miles from home

[@yvettedale6072]

I was thinking that 🙏

[@nestorlisondra]

Yes, by the looks of it, that was "humba." Humba is softer than adobo.

[@mpoiya]

Siargao for me it’s one of the city that started mail order bride that’s why lots of foreigner goes there

[@GSXSF-250]

the mom and pop restaurants are the authentic Filipino food .

[@EricaAsahan-n4q]

Sibol pr. SEE BALL meaning sprout

[@francisG15]

Also visit Magpupungko Rock pools

[@ChaseandShelbs]

It was closed at the time 😭

[@38th-Parallel]

You can ask for half rice, if you can't finish a whole cup.

[@rhythmandacoustics]

Dam that dog was patiently watching with his tongue out.

[@allanpaullagdameo3528]

Its pork humba if its not vinegary

[@jamesgarcia7635]

Pls go to culinary capital of the Philippines

[@maxeldutz2433]

In bisaya thats called humba but in tagalog dealect that is Adobo.

[@frenchiechanel64]

Pork humba much sweeter with a hint of star anise.

[@JhymzDavaoPH]

i suggest Eat along with rice, not making rice like a chaser after hard drink.. hehehe nice you like Filipino Original Cuisine.... Bicol Express is named after a province in the Philippines, Bicol. The "melon" is locally called Kalabasa, a family of Squash/Pumpkin

[@ChaseandShelbs]

Thanks for the tips!❤️

[@arjiedublin1402]

This viand also is eating combined with rice

[@emilioba6770]

It's a nice and beautiful island, if know cooking you can control your expenses and save a lot, enjoy to your home. 😊 And welcome home ♥️❤❤

Where is that in Siargao?

[@pinoyelectriciansbayarea1608]

Try to meet up with 8milesfromhome.

[@bhello99]

the secret is ask the locals for their beat sellers

[@wayneswallow1378]

Why do u always go to tourist destinations like all the other Philippines youtubers SHEEP??.

[@ChaseandShelbs]

We go to places that we want to go and that are fairly established as it’s important for work. Camiguin, Batanes, vigan, baugio are on our list some day but we aren’t going to explore those places in one go. So maybe in a year or so to come! I’m sure there’s other KZbinrs who have covered less know islands in the Philippines. Feel free to search on KZbin!

[@felipepastrana7184]

Yeah,good choice.just go the budget friendly local foods. Be Budget wisely😉

[@ChaseandShelbs]

Definitely!! The best 🤤

Be careful with the spoons and forks you don’t know where it has been especially if they put it in warm water I ate at k e of those carenderia ‘s and I gotten typhoid fever I rather ask for plastic spoon or forks ❤❤❤❤❤😊😊

[@ChaseandShelbs]

Thank you! That’s great to know.

[@joeypenuela1562]

After a couple of days, do you see yourselves living in Siargao? If so, why?

[@ChaseandShelbs]

No only because the wifi/data is not reliable for us. Other than that it’s beautiful. Just not practical for us.

[@kirkhmlett9556]

hope you can visit catagnan (afam) bridge and would be great if you guys can buy ice cream from barbie also a vlogger , a native of florida who sells ice cream in the bridge

We sadly didn’t get to the afam bridge but caught a great sunset and we saw the bridge from there ☺️ stay tuned!

Shelby. You noticed the difference between the Pork Humba and Pork Adobo. You're becoming more filipina, i can say. You are correct that is pork humba. lol.
