@Vice Vice because rich don't need to ask... They take. Money gives power too. That's why 99% of politicians (worldwide) have no worries about daily life issues that faced 70% of the planet population. Why to stay far from people who ask? A simple no is acceptable and respectable. Better to stay far from people who takes without asking, even if we forgive them because they are stupid ignorant.

There's also this dish in the slums called "pagpag" which roughly translates to "to dust/ shake off". It's left-over foods from restaurants/ fastfoods, usually chicken, that has been thrown away in the trash. They sift through it from the garbage dump, take up the edible parts, and cook it again into a new dish, served for very cheap prices, usually for the underprivileged. Those who serve pagpag are open that their dish came from "pagpag", and many still eat it because they are usually cooked very well, with the intention of killing off any bacteria in the heat. I personally haven't tried it yet, and I'd probably won't mind trying it out as long as I get to witness how it's prepared and deem it safe enough for me 😅

[@teresc3181]

@Superrooper Rall Well, I'm sorry that my comment made me look like an idiot to you. I never said that Monok and Pagpag are the same. i just said there's this dish called pagpag which is left over foods thrown in the trash. HAVE A GOOD DAY!

the "tatay" that owned rados seems like he is really passionate about food. maybe that's the secret why people loved it.

[@dearcole123]

I’ve seen a few documentary style videos on Tondo now. In each of them, the people are smiling, friendly , inviting, children playing. They really like to talk about who they are and where they are from and what makes them happy. I know this is a slum and people say it is dangerous but honestly it looks quite lovely for the people living there. Maybe not a posh fancy city life, but still a seemingly good one all the same!

[@star-ke4yr]

Love this documentary. Of course all the negatives are shown but they highlighted the process and how the people who cooked it was dedicated to create a dish that everyone can afford and enjoy despite difficulties 🥺🥺🥺

One of the best food documentary about us filipinos. It shows how filipinos work on something less in resources but comes up with a good outcome. Even though we are full problems and struggles in life, we simply cure it with a smile and being resourceful.

[@JohnVictorAclan]

I love how the documentary is made, everything's genuine. The smiles, their daily lives - these just proved that happiness is how you define it, and helping is not just giving or donating but by providing affordable options in the neighborhood. Storyline is solid!

[@buckfoyonyt]

"Monok" is now recognized in some restaurants as "Chicken Adobo Flakes". The chicken that were used isn't really contaminated with bacteria especially if it's came from hotel. Most hotels have guideline in poultry meat to prevent contamination. Unless the chef isn't so capable to take care of their frozen products, that will be 🙅🏽‍♂️

There are people who have money and there are people who are rich. You can see the most humble smile that warm the heart . Funny thing is, not only that we share borders but also language, found at least 5 similar words to Indonesian : 😄: “mangutang, bawang, sakit, asin, bayar” .. it brighten up my afternoon, when it supposed to be a visit to celebrate my birthday in Philipine but had cancelled due to corona, Hope this pandamic is soon over , much Love from Indonesia 🇲🇨

These are the kinds of communities most vulnerable to the coronavirus. They're densely populated and have little to no access to healthcare.

The Monok is actually a great way of food conservation. The chickens were straight from the hotels' kitchen so it's not unsanitary. As compare to the "pagpag", chicken meats that came from garbage bags of fastfood chains that are really meant to be disposed yet it will be washed, seasoned and deep fried again which is risky due to viruses that could potentially cause diseases.
