The Tito that you interviewed is so wholesome, he could've bragged about his own achievements but told his children's achievements instead. He also seems like that super kind and nice tito in family reunions.

[@sarahjaneabdon4938]

Fun fact about Three Sisters! It's been in Kapitolyo since the 50's. I hear stories from my family that it's the first restaurant in Kapitolyo!

[@johnjavier5308]

Ang una nilang pwesto ay sa kapasigan bago lumipat sa bungad ng kapitolyo.

[@guttom]

i appreciate the team behind this paborito series, it brings out the capability of Jessica even more. plus it dives deeper in filipino culture. well done 👍🏼

[@basaGOALera52637]

I think what the third group meant for you to try was the quesadilla (sounds like pizza dilla) a mexican food which also has a wrapper 🤣

[@quirkypeppermint]

_I’ve tried Locavore BGC and Silantro UP Town. Both are part of my top ten restaurants in Metro Manila so I was surprised by Jessica’s choice. Might try Three Sisters when I go to Kapitolyo._ 😉

Fun fact: Pasig became the provincial capital of Rizal when the then Politico Districto Militar de Morong was renamed Rizal Province in 1901. In 1975, Pasig became part of Metro Manila, but Pasig remained the official or de jure capital of Rizal. Hence the term "kapitolyo". In 2020, Antipolo officially became the provincial capital of Rizal when a bill was signed by PRRD into law. This is now known as Republic Act No. 11475

Gumagaling na si Jessica mag tagalog ang layo mula nung Ep 1 nitong series. The conversations she had with the people recommending her places really helped her with her Tagalog skills 🤗🤗🤗🤗 good job Jessica!!!

[@ecilatnecniv]

@@jessicaleeseul watching your reaction on the scallops, i think you wonder what kind of taste was that.. it's not the pan de sal, it's actually the aligue butter that makes you wonder of unknown umami flavor.. aligue is the fat of tiny crabs and it's the best . 😋

[@ecilatnecniv]

@@jessicaleeseul sitaw is also correct because it's a general term.. sitaw baguio is baguio beans... "sitaw" simply means string beans..

[@kyliedoscope4764]

Tropang Ganda was referring to Quesadilla (Like a rolled pizza). Silantro and Locavore are chains though

[@romanracela]

Quesadilla is not like a rolled pizza. It's a tortilla reheated on a pan or grill, stuffed with cheese and meats (and veggies if you like), and then folded in half. You can cut the quesadilla in slices or just eat them whole. No self-respecting Mexican will serve a rolled up quesadilla. LOL

[@sharpe1739]

Silantro and Locavore both started in Kapitolyo, if I’m not mistaken, before they expanded to few other locations. Three Sisters is an institution in Kapitolyo.

I was expecting that Jessica would try the Sizzling Oyster sisig in Locavore. That would be fire!!!

[@constanted6668]

Watching Jessica’s videos is making me miss the Philippines even though I live and grew up in California. I’m so glad you love it. You are so genuine and such a nice person. Please keep making videos so that by the time I come home in March, I will know where to go. Love this series in addition to the trabaho series.

[@ioannadearc7901]

Great job, Jessica! I felt that the chef at your chosen favourite restaurant, The Three Sisters, took great care of your orders. That 30 minute wait must have been worth it. You've chosen the modest restaurant who delivered high quality food. I love your honest review. Thank you and G-d bless! Happy New Year's Eve (it's 0754, 12/31). Shabbat Shalom!

[@noelbmagalona]

hala sana makita ko to si Jessica, I would really make chika with you. 🤩

[@JLozdrummin]

Ate I love your series on Paboritos.. I noticed you get a lot of people declining when you ask them for a 1 min interview. If I can suggest you just nicely walk up to them and say can I ask you a question? Most will say yes because it's less intimidating. Keep up the great work and love your vids.

[@gaelhunter7136]

camera shy yan sila. kaya natatakot hahahaa

[@margaretasuncion649]

Agree! INTERVIEW sounds intimidating. Just approach them and ask the question nicely.

Just a suggestion when approaching a Pinoy. Ask kung 'puwedeng magtanong?' instead of 'interview'. Kasi interview in the streets sound's intimidating to a pinoy

Three Sisters is actually Kapitolyo’s OG restaurant, when Kapitolyo didn’t become a food capital yet and we had only that as restaurant in East Capitol Drive. People from other cities would go to Kapitolyo to eat there because the food Is good, and their restaurant used to be big. Unfortunately, when the owner died, her family didn’t get along well on how to run it and abandoned their original location, had troubles, then reopened with that small one. - from a Kapitolyo local of 35 years

[@dianalacuna278]

True. Miss that. We're from Pineda, but nilalakad lang namin yun.

True. I did not expect you to choose Three Sisters. The food they have looks so simple compared to the others but the taste won you over.

They also have Silantro in Baguio, Dagupan and Urdaneta. And the tita I guess is referring to the quesadilla. It so happened that "lengua" or tongue is dila in Tagalog. 😂😅 PABORITO makes me hungry 🤤

[@just_arci]

Yes, same thought. The pizza-dila refers to quesadilla hahahahahahaha

Right. The Pangasinan branch (Dagupan) is actually the birthplace of the resto. Would've loved if Jessica was able to try the Quesadilla, always my go-to food at Silantro, super sulit.

[@ddddddd1925]

Hi Jessica! Please update the ratings for the foods from being Good or Okay to 1-5 or 1-10 stars rating to get a better idea on how much you liked it before ranking the foods so we can get a significant idea of the differences of how good the food are. Though. Please make sure the rating is 1-10 and not 5-10 just to be nice. The honest feedback of 5 being the middle/okay/meh. Also. When going up to people for an interview, introduce your self first because if they don't know you, they'll be suspicious with the interview... Say something like "Hi, I'm Jessica a KZbinr doing food reviews, May I ask if it's okay for a quick 1-2 minute interview of your local food preferences?" (Just so they don't doubt and be more cooperative). :)

Hello Jessica, we truly enjoyed your Paborito series and was so glad you were in Kapitolyo, Pasig. And your chosen paborito is truly an icon there, long before the general area became a popular foodie hub. Three Sisters has been the regular go thru of my Father in law before so it helps rekindle fond memories. Thank you for exploring the various local food spots. If I may suggest, if you happen to try going towards Pasig City proper, in Bgy. Bambang, there is a favorite local restaurant/to go place called Ado's Panciteria. Whenever we go home to Pinas, and we visit our old homecity, we always make it a point to order their BBQ and pansit bihon. More power to your vlogs! Happy New Year!

[@vonn1974]

Hi Jessica, you are really a true pinay because I'm some kind of happy with a nice grin when you asked for rice to go along with the pancit! Used to order that before during my high school days, "chopsuey with rice" but you had it with pancit! 😉
