Most INSTAGRAMMABLE Foods | Farmer's Table Tagaytay

Welcome back Familia! In today's episode, we take a trip to Tagaytay where the cooler climate is waiting for us. We visit Farmer's Table and meet with Martin Wisneiwski, Chef Kalel Chan, and Gian from the Raintree Restaurants.
We were so humbled and grateful for their hospitality! They have taken Filipino food on a different level with the dishes that they serve here at the restaurant. Not only did they taste amazing, but they looked so pretty! ☺️ This is definitely one of the best restaurants in Tagaytay, Philippines.
Thank you to the team from Raintree Hospitality Group for everything! We can't say thank you enough!

Come for the food, stay for the friends! Let me know what you guys think of the full episodes of food reviews. Should we keep doing reviews like these and visit other restaurants? Hope you guys enjoy today's episode ❤

[@rontolentino2535]

Keep doing the reviews. I have a list of places to try when I go back home. Thank you!

[@manbibar4299]

🇵🇭❤️More reviews please. Can you try the Sinigang na Maya-,Maya (Pink/Red Snapper) and the Goat Caldereta and Papaitan (Goat meat, innards with its bile)? They're delicious but for the Papaitan, you might need to have an acquired taste for it, goes well with beer though.👍🤟

[@chubbycheeks6643]

We love it but can you include the prices or show the menu.

[@annabc8455]

Keep doing please…😊 Kuya is very smart and have good appetite for filipino foods😊

[@henyparato9278]

JUst a new subscriber , you inspired me as a pilipino I also live in california right now in silicon valley. Your blogs inspired me more to finally move back in my own country the Philippines next year. You're exactly right that moving there is more comfortable, than here where everything is exfensive.

Tawilis is a type of fish that can only be found in Taal Lake. So usually, only restaurants around Tagaytay are able to serve it and nowhere else in the country. Tuyo is just dried fish 😊

[@LLVT]

Aha! Thank you for sharing 🙏🏼

[@raymundcordova1016]

Kuya has grown so fast! He’s comments on the food has become more profound and so well that you can taste what he’s saying!! Great job kuya!! I love your family!! Stay safe and god bless!!

[@LLVT]

Salamat po!

[@Arnel_A67]

Tuyo is general name for dried fish, Tawilis is one type or common type of tuyo, others are Danggit, espada, bolinao etc. Dilis is small dried fish.

[@LLVT]

Salamat po!

[@wilfredomendoza8495]

Your son (kuya) is a good food critic, he knows well what he is eating. I envy him so much cause when i eat i just eat it so much until full, and never really think of the ingredients as long as it cook beautifully.

[@LLVT]

Awwww thank you so much!

Such a lovely vlog. I live near Tagaytay and still not able to go to this restaurant. One day, I will. Thanks for showing us around and nice to see the gentlemen behind this lovely restaurant.

[@LLVT]

It's an awesome experience for sure, I do hope you get to visit one day! Please tell them you watched them on the vlog, they will love that ☺️

[@motivationontop6587]

Your son is already a star, KZbinr reaction was everything 🎉

[@LLVT]

Thank you!

[@trendingcelebritiesworldwi3751]

Tuyo is, I think, sun-dried tawilis while the crispy tawilis is fresh-catch then breaded deep fried tawilis. Your eldest son is really so good with food tasting, he can describe every food with precision on the distinct taste of a dish. He really is your future vlogger, your food adventurer.

[@LLVT]

Thank you so much!

[@michesanico5640]

[@LLVT]

Thank you so much! We are so glad to hear that you’re enjoying the content.

[@kurokotetsuya7997]

[@ClaudineHerrera]

I'm currently watched this morning 🌞 new food vlog by eating beef bulalo is so delicious when the soup broth comes into more flavorful. My eldest sisters previously went to Tagaytay for their staycation, a cold weather just like Baguio I'm wishing to go when my parents having a plan soon.

[@LLVT]

Thank you so much for watching!

[@datugintuong464]

Tuyo means dried.so it is dried fish of any fish type.Tawilis is a type of fresh water fish available only in Taal lake and its rivers.It is a salt water fish that migrated to Taal lake and evolved into tasty type of fish.

[@LLVT]

Thank you so much for sharing!

[@annabc8455]

That laing looks so good! I think im gonna make some , bought a bag of dried taro leaves from asian market! Thank you for sharing your family’s Tagaytay adventure! God bless!

[@LLVT]

Yummy! I hope you made it and I bet it was masarap 🤤

[@groundedrealitytv]

Kuya has the potential to become a successful food or chef vlogger His takes on food subjects are definitely worth watching

[@LLVT]

Spread the word! We’ve been sharing his insights with this community for over a year now and we really hope that more folks will see how good he is at understanding food. Thank you for the sweet compliment ☺️

[@crissoriano2287]

Enjoy in the Philippines 🎉

[@LLVT]

We are loving it here 😊

[@mistyrivers4995]

Kuya should start his own channel coz he’s very good in giving his honest opinion about his food experiences. You’ll never know he’ll get fast followers.

[@LLVT]

He’s amazing… but not super motivated to have his own channel quite yet. We know he’ll get there someday though 😉 thank you so much for watching!!

[@SelwynClydeAlojipan]

Tawilis is a species of freshwater sardine that got landlocked inside Taal Lake. Tuyo is any dried salted fish usually made with sardines, mostly the saltwater version. Daing is any fish that is split open then salted and dried. Dilis is a type of anchovy that can be dried (tuyo), fresh (sariwa), or fermented (buro) before cooking and serving it.

[@LLVT]

Awesome! Thank you for sharing this information ☺️

[@groundedrealitytv]

Tawilis differs greatly from Tuyo. While Tuyo is known for its saltiness and difficult peeling, Tawilis boasts a crispy texture and easy chewiness. You're correct, Kuya. Laing, a staple dish in the Bicol region, is typically served with spices. Just in case you haven't been there.

[@LLVT]

Awesome info, thank you so much for sharing!

[@iamedyboy]

Laing is originally from Bicol Region. This a region of people who love spicy foods. They also have this spicy dish called Bicol express. Most of the filipino dish have strong taste that's why it always have to be eaten with rice to neutralize. Weirdly I like white corns far more than the yellow corns. I can't explain why but I love the taste of it.

[@LLVT]

I look forward to visiting the Bicol region someday - I am missing the "spicy" element of foods since a lot of the foods we eat here seem to be either sweet or sour.

[@arnelsanjuan2310]

HELLO! LIVIN LA VIDA ITS NICE TO SEE YOU AGAIN IN TAGAYTAY CITY

[@LLVT]

Hello 😊 thank you!

[@bemcorrales5358]

There's a sweet white corn variety that's locally known as 'lagkitan' meaning sticky. The one that you purchased and ate is not lagkitan corn....very nice vlog in Tagaytay, I can see that their food are really good 👌 😋. Stay safe and God bless your 🙌 your family 🙏🍀💖

[@LLVT]

Thank you for sharing! We appreciate all of the positivity from our community and hope to continue bringing more content like this to you ☺️

[@manbibar4299]

🇵🇭❤️All yummy food! Have you tried the Batangas brewed coffee called Kapeng Barako? It's good to be partnered with Fresh Buko Pie. Heavenly! 🤟👍

[@LLVT]

I love Barako coffee 🥰 we actually picked some up on the way home that day. I love to pair mine with the Buko Tarts from Rowena's.

[@Relo67]

Just subscribed as I love your episodes. Your voice comes clear. You’re very descriptive of the places you go to and food you eat. I guess your son gets that from you. It also helps if you have wireless mike which not all vloggers have. Keep it up 👍🏼

[@LLVT]

Thanks so much for watching and for subscribing! 😊

[@lolumonsar3408]

Farmers' Table is a hidden getaway in Tagaytay area. The spread of assorted mouth watering food is a must.. Love their smoked tinapa cream croquettes, crispy cauliflower, sizzling gambas, fresh spring rolls, kare kare and their butter pecan and pistacchio ice cream..The best place to eat and hang out with family and friends. Highly recommended 👍👍👍

[@motivationontop6587]

[@joselitovillegas6811]

Tawalis is endemic to taal lake. Dilis is from the ocean or sea. Tuyo is dried salty fish but 3-4x bigger than tawilis but smaller than galunggong. Dried salty fish as big as tilapia are called daing ( because it can be butterflied). The most expensive and delicious daeng is called New Look endemic to Bicol, sometimes it cost P1,200 pesos per kg

[@LLVT]

Thank you so much for clarifying ☺️

[@chitocucio4573]

I also learned to appreciate laing really late. Probably because it looks gross. But it does taste good, especially with any dried dish, that crispy tawilis included.

[@LLVT]

It’s got an interesting look for sure 😳 but it really surprised me with how delicious it was!

[@jamstore97]

👍👍👍

[@melvinnokitv]

video is top notch your sound quality and video is good . video transitions sound effects is appreciated .camera and video editor you can feel the passion on it. even the captions got styles also. the content tells all about the place. it's look like a work of a perfectionist.

[@LLVT]

Wow! Thank you so much for the sweet compliment ❤️ my husband is the one doing all of the editing and videography, he takes the job very seriously and he's definitely a perfectionist. We're incredibly lucky to have him.

[@vivajones9472]

Looks so delicious. Your older son will be one of the food critics or he will be a famous Chef. Keep it the good work Gwapito. God bless you and keep safe.

Laing dish is one of Bicol's authentic food..I like with red chile (laboyo or silee in bicol)

[@LLVT]

I can’t wait to visit Bicol region and try all of the spicy foods!

[@MomDuty]

This place looks amazing! The ambiance itself looks worth the visit. I wish we had visited Tagaytay longer than just passing through it. Nelvine loved the Bulalo👌And the views are everything there🙌 By the way, you look beautiful in that color dress 👗👗👗👗👗

[@LLVT]

Salamat po!! It was a fantastic meal.

[@groundedrealitytv]

You're missing out if you haven't tried the "Bulalo" dish at the food court in Mahogany Market. This dish has a more authentic and tantalizing flavor in the local eatery or carinderia compared to posh restaurants.

[@LLVT]

Hopefully we will have several more opportunities to try these types of dishes in various restaurants and carinderias in order to compare the flavors.

[@jomish8719]
