I've been to the Philippines on 2 occasions...next year will be my 3rd. My fiancée is from there and we are currently working on the k-1 visa to bring her here to the USA. Every time I go over there I am treated like a king. Great country with wonderful people.

[@jakexake2940]

just fly her to Mexico and cross the border. Biden will give her health insurance , housing, monthly stipend. all at the expense of US taxpayers.

[@MickandJanelle]

We really appreciate it Thank you 😀

[@PhoenixGrin]

if am not mistaken, Jollibee started as an Ice Cream shop, until they expanded and added other food in the menu. So, the sweet spaghetti was really intended for the children (like, children prefer to eat chocolates, ice cream or sweet candies) and for the children to come in, an adult must accompany them. so, it become a family gathering to enjoy the food.

[@MickandJanelle]

great business decision on their behalf, especially since Filipinos are very family orientated 👏

[@CaramelSauce24]

Nice well put together video. Pek-pek is the cherry on top! 70 subscribers? Make that 71. I'm sure your channel's about to blow up, courtesy of pek-pek lol. Make sure to turn that into shorts. You and Janelle look like an awesome duo. All the best!

Jollibee chicken is bomb, there spaghetti is sweet so you may not like it bcos it might be different to the usual spaghetti the you eat. Jollibee's target are the kids, if the kids want it then there parents have no choice but to eat in Jollibee, i love there chicken and peach mango pie 😊

[@MickandJanelle]

peach mango pie was honestly so good 🙌

"dangerous human hell hole" - that was quite abrupt.

[@MickandJanelle]

'dangerous humid hell hole' to contrast with slice of paradise... a little abrupt but that humidity nearly killed us 😆

[@axizcorp]

Do you know what pek-pek means? 😂😂😂

[@grape00jellly]

It's a deep-fried quail egg covered in orange bater, very tasty with some vinegar. "2 pek pek please, thank you po!"

[@MickandJanelle]

I do now... when Janelle told me after posting the video 😂

[@MickandJanelle]

yes I think that's Kwek Kwek! It'll be funny to ask for 2 pek peks... 😂 sounds too similar lol

[@bashersbeware]

Side by side, which one would you go for first? Me, the one with fewer letters.

[@kaelinvictus6039]

​@@bashersbeware Ek ek doesn't sound tasty at all 😂

[@jquaillo5350]

ah yes "pek-pek" the most important and the most crucial word to learn first when going to PH.

[@MickandJanelle]

You got it 😂

[@dianallamas7135]

Most Pinoys who go home for a visit try to lose weight to look good. That's a no-no for me because I'm am going to FEAST! and I mean FEAST on a the food that I have missed so much. It's my "see food" diet. Cant waaaaait!!!!!!

I think you mean kwek kwek not pek pek lmao😂😂😂

[@kayak0000]

"Kumusta, Sisig, Pekpek" 😮

[@ronjie]

Pek-pek

[@roygoad2870]

Sorry but for me Jollibee is terrible food, try any barbecue chicken on the street or Peri-Peri Charcoal Chicken restaurants, absolutely amazing 😊. Have you been to Thailand yet? The Thai cuisine is so much better! Though Philipino chicken Adobo is good, as is Lechón whole roasted pig, plus try Philipno Pansit a traditional noodle dish!

[@MickandJanelle]

We went to Bacolod the home of chicken inasal so we definitely got to try! Thailand is on our list 😊

[@CyrilRebusquillo]

Nice! Pekpek😂
