I Bought TOO MUCH SEAFOOD at Dampa Seaside Market (Big Mistake!) 🇵🇭

In today's video, me and ‪@kayyywild‬ are heading to Dampa Seaside Market to pick up some fresh seafood and have it cooked by a restaurant at the end of the market! Unfortunately I made a rookie mistake and ended up buying more than I could handle.. The meal was delicious but I won't be making that mistake again! 😅

Hey everyone! Hope you all are having a great week 😊 I got absolutely stuffed filming this video.. completely my mistake for buying a stupid amount of a certain seafood 😂I managed to finish most of it though! Please don't hate me too much in the comments, I won't make this mistake again! 😅 Hope you enjoy the video, looking forward to reading your funny comments. What is your favourite seafood? Let me know down below! Much love 💖

[@IanAbroadd]

hahahaha...you should consider trying bit by bit..and avoid rice bfo u start food vlog..gonna make u eat loads without getting stuffed..nice video mate

[@cristinasumadchat605]

Lapu-lapu tastes great especially when steamed. Eating at a local carinderia would just cost about ₱50 per viand. I think three people could eat half a kilo of fish (with rice) and they would be full. You should have taken the leftovers and given them away or eaten later.

[@francissantiago4110]

Thats good foods

[@JbFactTravelVlog]

it's fine... charged to experience

[@AdlenDelMundo]

Kilawin is just like ceviche and please be reminded that our level or spicy is just low.. so when we say spicy, it is not as spicy as the korean lever or thailand level of spice..

[@normandeux]

in Philippines, if you have many clean left overs, you can ask the waiters to repack it “for take out”.. you can consume it in your house or give it to others. or give it to street children. …it is perfectly normal to ask it to the waiters ..majority of filipinos do this.

[@AdamBaruell]

As a Pinoy vlogger myself, I appreciate these foreign vloggers interacting with the locals a lot, compared to some foreign vloggers who doesn't, enjoy our country Josh and stay safe!

[@Jonases_20]

[@ruyichan4562]

The guy who told you you got scammed is trippin'. The price you paid for shrimp was fair. It's usually 500-600/kg in Manila and cheaper in the provinces but not by a lot. No one sells shrimp for 50 pesos lmao

[@arluyoutoob127]

The seafood you bought was good for 10 people, not two. I was at Dampa about 7 years ago and it was a lot cheaper. But even these days, the cost is relatively cheaper than what you will pay for at a restaurant.

[@TheJourneyofJosh]

It was mainly the stupid squid purchase that made it too much, if I'd bought much less squid then I could have easily finished it all myself 😊 How much would this have cost 7 years ago?

[@mimiblitberg]

I gotta say, you and Conner are amazing vloggers! It’s awesome you went to a dampa style place. And so happy you love seafood as well! That’s my absolute favorite market and way to eat 🤤 😋 Can’t wait for the next adventure! Mabuhay!

You can take extra food home when you don't finish it, here in the Philippines it's okay, just tell the waiter, "please wrap it because I can't finish it, thank you"

Binge watching you vlogs and I liked how you interact with the locals ❤ I heard your next destination is Cebu. As a solo backpacker in the country I highly recommend you to visit Moalboal before Canyoneering and swim with the thousands of sardines and then visit one of the most beautiful and laidback island at the northern part of Cebu called Bantayan island.

Knowing now that you're used to eating tuna raw, the tuna kinilaw would have been a perfect dish for you to try. It is like ceviche but with palm vinegar and filipino spices. I hope you'll get to try it soon.

The mantis shrimp to some says taste like a mix of lobster and crabs, they are quite expensive because they are solitary thats why you don't catch them in quantities.

if you cant finish it you can ask the restaurant to take it out with you so you can eat it in your hotel or you can just give it to some beggar's in the street because the restaurant they just throw it away in the garbage.

[@nelsonlomod9601]

You don't cook squid to long or you will have it chewy. When it change in color its cooked, go further and it becomes harder and chewy.

[@user-dp4sv1oi1n]

You can take out your excess food n eat it in your hotel or if you use a serving spoon then your left over can be given to beggars in the streets.

The Tuna, when the cook said ‘salad and vinegar’, I was like westerners will not understand that. Tell them ‘ceviche’ haha.😅 Which is what it literally means when he said salad and vinergar.
