I'm from the Philippines. Kakanin can be considered a dessert (panghimagas), but this kind of food is more of a snack than anything. Kakanin is heavier on the stomach (mabigat sa tiyan), not necessarily something you'd eat after a meal. Popular desserts in the Philippines would include leche flan, maja blanca, braso de mercedes, ube halaya, buko pandan, cassava cake, yema, turon, and the famous, but most beloved halo-halo. It'd be nice for you to have Desserts Part 2, Jessica, so that your guests can experience the sweets that Pinoys are truly famous for making and sharing with others. Good luck!

[@twiceswift_]

That's what i thought as well

[@krdiaz8026]

She said "rice cakes" not "dessert" so only the title is wrong.

[@jdcandres]

@@krdiaz8026 she definitely did. at 1:10

[@therealgeoarchon]

@@jdcandres she said its kakanin in 0:30 before she said it’s desserts plus snacks are still under desserts anyway

[@faultline3936]

Too much sweets tho, not sure if the grannies are fine with it lmao

[@jaztadz]

Love how these seniors compose themselves. Something about them tells me they have class by the way they speak,dress, and eat.

[@lasvegasnevada7514]

I was about to say the same thing. Their table manners

[@yevgenyalekhinelargo1662]

The way they speak had me, not so soft but there is comfort and formality in there. And also elegance.

[@yevgenyalekhinelargo1662]

@@hentype I agree!

[@chanireann8865]

Yes, very professional.

[@damyli4033]

They well disciplined that's why.

[@josephsubang]

Jessica describes the food so well like shes a full grown filipino, its fascinating and adorable. More vids with the seniors!

[@rosefrias8115]

I like how Jessica explained about Filipino rice cakes to korean grandparents and I like their reactions.💖💖💖

[@PinoyChefKorea]

Thanks @jessica lee for always promoting the philippines 🇵🇭 ❤️ 🇰🇷

[@KuyaEoj]

i love how excited Jessica was while introducing our Filipino Foods. hindi pilit. talagang mararamdaman mo ang Genuinity at Excitement sa mukha nya. Yung mga korean reactors, mukhang Excited, Curious at Game sila sa mga Foods na natikman nila.😊😊 Keep it up Ms. Jessica. Me and Filipinos are looking forward for this kind of your videos.😊😊 MARAMING SALAMAT!💕💕

[@leihope9472]

Agreed! Kitang-kita po sincerity nya. That's what I love about her 💖

[@EngrLau04]

koreans are honest on their reviews and opinions unlike yung ibang vloggers na kahit d nasasarapan ehh sasabihin na okay din. Recently lng ako nag subscribe dito sa channel and ang happy lang na hindi bias and accepted lahat ng reactions. Way din to to compare, improve, explore, and be proud of our foods and products. Hope this channel can reach million subscribers.

[@KuyaEoj]

@@EngrLau04 yah. just for the clout and content ika nga. madali pa naman maclickbait tayong mga pinoy pag may mga foreigner tayong nakita na PINOY ang featured sa videos nila. talagang mapipilitan silang "masarap" ang pagkain kahit ayaw nila. tbh.

[@rhynemusic4101]

Ang kaibahan nya sa iba is, dito na sya lumaki at nakapag aral sa pinas. Kaya andun talaga yung excitement na mag introduce sya ng mga kinalakhang pagkain naten. Unlike most ng mga pinoy clickbaiter na makikita mo dito sa YT

[@KuyaEoj]

@@rhynemusic4101 BIG ADVANTAGE na din yun di ba? at least may nakita din tayo sa wakas na LEGIT na MAHAL TALAGA ANG PILIPINAS NA ATING BANSA.😊😊 yung iba basta mafeatured lang ang bansa natin for the sake of clout, Views and Money.

[@EngrLau04]

I really like how Jessica introduce our foods and it is really legit that she was familiar with the foods and what is their nature and origin. I think "snack" is an appropriate term rather than "dessert". Still proud of our food.

[@stephaniematildo8534]

[@aejoymamotosfermin2497]

Filipino *KAKANIN* is the best snack.. Ang sarap ng filipino Kakanin lalo na ang puto and Suman my favorite meryenda . 💓💙💓

[@JesseChoi77]

No one is asking, but I'm the one who prepared these foods.. 😅😍

[@JandeeElyseJugo]

How?😮😮

[@mirenpavia3875]

Mr. Ilsan is right, the kakanins aren't necessarily a dessert, they're more of like a traditional snack. They're too heavy after a full meal. I'm glad they liked it!

[@josebesa731]

All of my thoughts here circulates about how fun it is to hang-out with these elders. They seem to be chill and genuine about everything.

[@che0972]

It's more of a snack than dessert. Maybe they can also try filipino desserts like leche flan , fruit salad and more. 🙂

[@giyavictoria3747]

Leche flan and fruit salad are very western influenced. Kakanin is a very southeast asian staple for dessert. Our leche flan is good, dont get me wrong, but I would prefer creme brulee as that's where you truly enjoy the origin of the dish.

[@AnnaKatrina1247]

I would love to call these as afternoon snacks rather than desserts since these are a bit heavy to eat and mostly eaten int he afternoon rather than after a meal. I love how the seniors reacted on these rice cakes -- they took time to really provide honest feedback and it's nice to listen to how they are similar to their own. It amazes me how Jessica was able to easily answer the questions from her guests (e.g. are these from a restaurant?) and how confident and happy she sounded when she was introducing the food items. Love it, Jessica. :)

[@nagiivi]

My grandmother made a living out of these 4 traditional kakanin and has managed to buy a lot of land in her day, now she just does it as a hobby. I wish I can let you taste her kutchinta. It's the best for me! It's always nice to see other people enjoy our culture! Thank you!

[@RainQueen90]

Omg, Kutchinta is my favorite kakanin, i remember my lolo always go and buy me some for snack especially if you dip it in coconut shavings. it's delicious 😋😋

[@clover1519-h7q]

they would have absolutely LOVED espasol since its familiar in the sense that its coated in a roasted rice flour/powder similar to 인절미! I'm from laguna and thats where it originates

[@erwinpanganiban9059]

Korean elders are like Filipino elders very gentle mannered and sweet I want to hug them.

[@seokjinsforehead7482]

for me, one of my fave smells is the smell of a banana leaf that has been freshly heated. It honestly adds a little flavor to the dish when used as a wrap.

[@gdxclsupremacy154]

Thank u again miss Jessica. Actually there is one more rice cake that can be found in Leyte, Philippines. I don't know if you heard or tried it already. The name is "moron". It is made of glutinous rice also wrapped in banana leaves. Locals sometimes put cheese or peanuts in it or just the plain flavor. It is in color white and brown combination. The brown color is cooked with tablea/cocoa made of cacao. Hope you'll like it.

[@misslouie6742]

Choco moron is seriously the best, i can eat more even though i don't like sweets

[@clover1519-h7q]

aaa ive never had that id really love to try it (as a person who absolutely loves suman and espasol)

[@EricCorbeza]

Dang I miss moron... good thing my aunt will come home next month (she went back to our ancestral home in leyte to get a vacation), and I specifically requested her to bring moron and tablea. :D

[@hypeforenha3133]

MORON IS THE BEST KAKANIN FOR ME I LOVE IT SO MUCH 💕

[@secretchef9569]

As someone who doesnt really like rice cakes that much, moron is definitely something else. I can eat more than 10 rolls in one sitting.

[@JoyLangston]

Awww they’re so sweet and you can tell they eat pretty healthy by Mentioning walnuts & honey! I totally understand but so glad they enjoyed it! Btw, me & my husband went to Palawan 6 yrs ago & they gave us free biko but I forgot the name of it but it is soooooo delicious! I have tried so many biko versions but the Palawan one stole my heart & my husband can’t forget it!

[@francesberrios8250]

Appreciate that you're introducing our cuisine to your countrymen. We Filipinos are known to have a sweet tooth, hence the many snacks and desserts that we make and eat. Enjoy.

[@mellorain5323]

We Filipinos love Koreans, they are very nice and friendly! We Filipinos appreciated much your comments about our food. Try more Filipino dishes and desserts. Filipinos love to eat and cook. Of course some of your foods and dishes spreading here and Filipinos loves it too.

[@CopperPudding]

YESSSS a kakanin feature !! Always love to see people try Filipino kakanin, imo they are some of the most underrated yet delicious parts of our cuisine 😊 It's also so interesting to see the similarities and differences between kakanin and Korean traditional desserts, thank you for including photos as well!

[@michaelmarquez7778]

It's really nice to see someone who is mixed and thus from different cultures making content that brings awareness of different cultures to each other. Since Asian culture has a lot of similarities, it's not surprising to find what's common between each culture's dishes but since it's not the exact same, it's really nice to see the elders point out what's different while still being able to appreciate and even enjoy the food. I like how the elders remain respectful while giving their honest opinion of each dish, even if they don't prefer them. I hope we can see this from the opposite point of view, Filiipino Grandparents try Korean foods . Nice content, looking forward to watching more.

[@mrianmichael]

Love this series with the older generation of Koreans! I was really curious on how they would react to these foods! Thank you for being open minded and so fun to watch! ❤️

[@lovediesfaster]

I find these old people adorable.. especially when they eat heartily. Aiyoh,.. I'm starting to miss my late grandparents..

[@bbv1r6o]

I like this grandparents react to... It is so heartwarming to see them enjoy these food and their reactions are genuine. 고마워요 🥰🥰 다음 에피소드 기대뒨다!

[@melvaladaona6423]

Ilove watching this senior citizen their comments is so good.

[@aejoymamotosfermin2497]

Thank you korean lolos and lolas for enjoying filipino rice cakes. Mabuhay po kayo🥰

[@maricarcelso8092]

Wow korean grandparents looks humble and sweet ❤️

[@Angelmheee]

The rice cake dessert that i love is the Ibos one, and i think this one is wrapped in coconut leaves, and it will be dipped in mascobado sugar.

[@neljade3341]

This is what I love about food. Other cultures will somehow have something similar in appearance but it's either more savory than sweet. Thank you Korean Ate for this Korean perspective on Pinoy traditional desserts/snacks. Glad to find out the seniors enjoyed all of it....hmm I wonder what their reaction would be if it's the lechon, pancit palabok, sisig, etc... Looking forward to your future episodes!

[@user-fg9pm4kq6h]

Im a Filipino and i love this series! 💕 thank u Jessica for promoting our traditional foods.

[@keribells645]

I love the way you present the food and how you define it so that the seniors had an idea on what are they eating. Watching your vlog here in Riyadh Saudi Arabia.

[@chechele7812]

Kutchinta goes well with fresh coconut shavings as well or dulce de leche❤️ Feel good watching this, cultural exchange is nice!

[@shanteltish2101]

It’s so cute to see Filipino desserts are in chopsticks. 😊 Also great to know your elders like it. Thank you for sharing.

[@jialaineturija3725]

It would be cool if they can try the cold desserts too like the halo-halo, mais con yelo, ginataang halo halo (aka bilo-bilo) as well as taho. I wanna see how they would compare it to bingsu.

[@Lex02615]

Grandparents are very nice to listen to and receptive to the tastes as well.

[@요-z9b]

I love their reaction / comments. They say when they don't like it that much and I can feel that they really say their real opinion/s.

[@dannysimion]

I love how you’re introducing these desserts from the PI dishes! I cannot wait for you to introduce more dishes to them. A humbling experience for all!

[@joank9425]

Great series :) I love listening to seniors ♥️However, maybe the word dessert in the title is not the best choice. Traditional rice cakes or traditional snacks (incl maruya, banana cue,etc) would be fitting. Because for desserts in the Ph ,that would mean buko pandan etc. Nonetheless, kudos to you and to your team for bringing the Philippines to Korea!😊

[@cindy__77]

It is amazing to me that Koreans are willing to try the desserts .I'm from West Virginia USA the closes place for us to have Filipino desert is about 1.5 hours drive or the Best place to go is Newark New Jersey 4.0 hours away .I miss this a lot dessert I live in the U.S since 1979 I arrive here at 17 yrs old im 60 yrs old now Thank you for sharing it bring a lot of memories

[@shiningshawol_0923]

Actually it's like a snack for elders in the province (or is it just me?) P.S. my favorite here is biko 😋

[@peachesandcream1523]

I really appreciate their comments about the foods. Some people that I've watched before just said that they don't like the foods presented to them but don't explain it further (sometimes they'd make a comment or two about the texture, smell, or the appearance but the lack of info or explanation kinda puts me off). With the seniors, they're sure with what they liked and didn't. They also compare the foreign foods with foods from their country which is really nice in a way that made me want to try their national foods. Also, they take big bites which I appreciate since it makes it easier for them to give proper feedback if they explored the taste (some people just take a nip of their food then claim that they don't like it). Thank you, dear seniors! I would love to see more of you here in the channel.❤️
