- We've been stuck in The States for almost 2 months and eating almost every meal at home. And because food culture is such a big part of our travel adventures, we're all getting a little bit hangry for some of our international favorites.We're not even sure we can make it a couple more weeks until we're back in Southeast Asia, but luckily we just heard about a relatively new filipino restaurant that's just a few minutes' drive from our house. So, of course, we had to come see for ourselves.

ABOUT US
We’re the Lockwoods. And we’re traveling the world to experience-up close and in person-all the natural wonders and distinct cultures that our kids would otherwise be consuming only through textbooks and TV. We think it’s a better way to learn and we’re working hard to fund this little experiment in the hope that our kids will grow up wiser, kinder, and more grateful for the beauty of our diverse planet and its people.
We have just arrived in BGC and are already feeling the good vibes. We can't wait for you guys to join us here; it's been too long. It's crazy to think that we'll be neighbors now. We met in BGC, and now we're going to be living here. What?! Thank goodness we checked our junk mail that day ❤️ Miss you guys! See you soon!
It's all coming full circle! Manila can't come soon enough for us. Can't wait to see you all!!!!!
I love how their kids are down to earth like the parents and very respectful about the cultures. You guys are awesome and raised your kids right! 💗💗🌸
Thank you so much that means the world to us 🥰
I really love you guys. Gorgeous mom, responsible, loving and caring husband, wonderful and amazing kids. And amazing ambassadors to Philippines tourism. Love you guys and God bless you all.
Thank you so much! 🫶🇵🇭
Filipino food is yummy all over the WORLD!!! LETS GO!!!🎉🎉🎉
So good! Lets GOOOOOO!
Thanks you for making another filipino episode! Filipino’s are smiling when we are watching your episode regarding the Philippines! Can’t wait for the family to get back here in the 🇵🇭 🎉😊❤
We can’t wait either! ♥️🎉
Love this Family because when they vlog they are not only showing the places but also they give information to the place to the foods etc. Its like watching a TV show or a magazine show if im not mistaken with the term i used its just fantastic, every time i watch your vlogs i keep on smiling 😊 from the start till end.
That's incredibly nice to hear-thank you so much!
5:06 Such a great idea! It’s good to have a second home base half way around the world, more so in a country where you (and especially the kids) can have a friendly and safe community. I’m sure you will all make a lot of friends (and memories) that you will cherish till you grow old. 🇵🇭❤️🇵🇭
These are exactly the reasons we are doing it :)
Thank you guys for appreciating and promoting our food 🥰.
Our pleasure! Thanks for watching us :)
Wowie😊
Thank you for sharing with us, especially the taking the kids to camp moment. It was so touching. 💜 Im from Manila and as far as I know, we dont have summer camps.
We're so happy that the camp scene in particular resonated with you :) It was their first and only camp so far, so it was a special experience for all of us 🥰
Hi, in Christian communities we do have Summer Youth camps. If you like to try you can check nearest Christian church in your area that they might have summer camps. ☺️
@@msleeindependenti saw a summer camp organized by Victory Makati for high school to college students
Evangelical churches hold summer camps. Our church held one during Holy Week this year, the first one we held since the beginning of the pandemic. My daughters were campers when they were kids, and started serving as counselors in their teens. My husband and I have served as camp staff since the 90s. It's a great way to build happy memories and to serve God.
Yep! I’ve been to summer camps when I was young, but yes mostly Christian retreats. Was a lot of fun as a kid and I really learned my values because of this
Thank you so much for promoting Filipino food. It is so underrated here in the US. Congrats as well to 100k+ subs! Well deserved.
Thank you so much! 🙏🫶🥰
I LOVE THIS EPISODE (IN ALL CAPS) haha. Hats off to you for trying the shrimp paste 😅 I knew only a few Americans getting used to the smell and taste of shrimp paste.
So good! Thank you so much for watching! 🫶♥️
Great video!!! Drooling for Filipino food! =)))
Thank you 😋
Love your videos. It’s awesome you chose the Philippines to be your hub in Southeast Asia! Filipinos all over will love you.
I'm a huge fan, from San Diego, California. Thank you for embracing and promoting my country, the Philippines. 🇵🇭
Do you have plans to visit El Nido?
We ♥️ SD! And yes, we visit El Nido soon on this upcoming trip 👏🏼
I know you guys love the Philippines but let me just say I am more impressed, even enamored at your being great parents. Love how always mention how these travel experiences are great for your kids and even more how you teach them to become the best version of themselves. I can tell all your kids will grow up to be wonderful people like you both. May you be an inspiration to all parents who get to watch your videos. Hats off to the both you and all the love from the Philippines! 🥰
Thank you so much! This means so much to us. Parenting is hard but we are lucky to have such great kids to start with. 🥰🤗
Loved the video❤ glad you guys like our filipino food🎉😊 great job on the editing🤗
Thank you!! 😁
You guys always makes us craving for Filipino foods . Watching you guys eating makes my mouth watery😊.
That’s a compliment to us 😊 thanks for watching!
Your vlogs are always an absolute delight to watch, both engaging and insightful! Feels like I'm watching a travel documentary series. Great editing too. Keep up the awesome work! 🙌
Wow, thank you! 🙏🫶🥰🤗
Thank you guys for introducing our delicacies, top most favorite menu in Filipino cuisine....Goodluck on your vlogging and God bless your family....Take care & stay safe always...❤😘😍🙏🙏🙏
Thank you too! 🙏🥰🤗
Awesome! If I'm ever in Denver area, I'll definitely stop by and check it out! Thanks and been enjoying all your travel videos! 😎
You should! Thanks for watching :)
OMG I am salivating watching this episode
Everything you ordered was very good. I haven’t tried Bangus Sisig that must be very YUMMY
coz I love Daing na Bangus . The Crispy Pata is very very good, I could hear the crackling of the skin so so GOOD.
YUM YUMMY YUMMY
You’re so lucky to find that restaurant. Around here in the DC area they usually don’t really cook it the way it should be cooked like in the Philippines. That is a very good Filipino restaurant, lucky you.
We were so happy to find that restaurant. 🤗
I’m so excited too see you guys back in the Philippines!!! Can’t wait!❤
The way you pronounced bangus sisig, too cute hahaha 7:20
Thank you!! 😁
Crispy Pata is the one! All time favorite for the young at heart 🤣🤣🤣 enjoy Filipino dish in Denver 😍
Sooo good! Maybe even better than Lechon? 😬
I don’t Eat Pork So don’t Have no idea’s How it Taste 😂😅😂✌️✌️✌️
I'm very happy because you guys really appreciate Filipino culture & love our dishes. While watching this episode, my mouth is watering, and the food 😋 is yummy. I am very happy because you guys will have a condo in BGC. One of my favourite family too were the Ocampos.
I am a Filipino, a new subscriber from the Philippines. If you ask for calamansi, you can drizzle its juice on the shrimp sauce before matching it with Kare-kare. It would taste like heaven. Yes, that is a thing, to dip your turon in halo-halo or ice cream to cool its scorching heat.
Welcome to our channel 🤗 thanks for the tips!
Oh my goodness! All the food looks so good, especially the Halo-Halo with Ube. It looks amazingly delicious. The kids and I would have loved it. Nelvine said it looks "gelatinous"! 🤣 But is favorite is definitely the crispy pata.
Hahahahaha! I will forever laugh thinking about gelatinous. It was just as good in Denver but can't wait to have more in Manila with you guys!
So cool that you went to a Filipino restaurant in your hometown. You all made me so hungry!! I was so excited to learn that Coronado is one of your favorites places … just a few miles from my home . ☺️
We ♥️ Coronado!
Ohhhh maaaaan mouthwatering! 🙂
Looking forward to see more of your food adventures in PH and the whole of Asia! Wohooo! 🎉
Thank you! Can’t wait to get out there and create more content 🤗
You guys are so informative with all your vlogs, Thank you❤
Thanks for watching! 🫶
Guys,the proper Filipino ways how to execute eatin famous "halo-halo" is; mixed well all the sangkap(for you to find out😊 what "sangkap" mean is) then eat.
Do not eat as they served as it is.
Just mix,let the ice shave melt a little(not too to much) for you to enjoy and taste all the flavour adopted in the ice juiced.
Basically,mix flavour was made of seasonal fruits,its vary in what season we have that moment.
Mix means Halo(tagalog),
mix-mix = halo-halo.
So do not eat without mixing😊😊
Thanks for sharing your travel vlog.
More to come.cheers!
Great Video ❤ wish you guys all the best!
Thank you so much!! 🤗
Yum! Love everything you ordered. My favorite is Kare-kare. :)
And sorry i missed your Live. That's why i gave out a little scream of delight when you mentioned here that you'll be making PH your base for half of the year. That's awesome!!! ❤
yay! So glad you caught it in this video then :)
I'm salivating.Great video guys!
THAT CRISPY PATAAAA aaahhh....why did i watch this when it's lunchtime but can't eat yet...😭

Welcome to our channel! 🤗 we head back to PH very soon.
I'm not sure if I could have sent the kids off to camp for a week like that. I would've been crying 😭 just like Erin, for sure.
It was soooooo hard! But thankfully they had so much fun at camp :) And I knew I had your shoulder to cry on!
It is nice to see you guys again!!!

Most Filipino dishes are eaten with rice to offset the sweet or salty taste. Glad to hear you are using Manila BGC as your home base for Asia. So do other foreign vlogger who have resided in BGC, Making is Happen Vlog and Livin La Vida Tagalog, Nellys Life, The Kito Family, ect.. Enjoys guys, God bless your family

Awesome! My favorite family is coming back. Is the National Geographic family version is already happening? It would be great if you’re fam is featured as such. 😊
You should eat sisig and other dishes with rice. So it’s balanced and not too strong. Glad to know you’ll all be back in Philippines and even making it part time home base. Looking forward to all your videos.
Thank you! We can’t wait to get back to PH 🫶🇵🇭
I've lived in Denver for the whole summer of 2019 and worked as a Lifeguard at Elitch. I love Denver!!
Awesome! 🤩
So nice to see your family loving our food. Hope you enjoyed eating Filipino food and kids are loving too. God bless. ❤️

So happy you found our channel 🤗 We list all our vlogging equipment, including our camera, on our website. followabc.com/stuffwelove/camera-gear
Bangus is the boniest of all fish we eat in the Philippines. Some people won't eat it because of the bones. Having a bone stuck in your throat can be an unforgettable painful experience. But bangus is also a favorite of many because of its flavourful belly. Bangus de-boning is a skill many people in the bangus industry have mastered and they can de-bone a big bangus using tweezers in a few minutes. Sinigang, relleno, paksiw, daing are other family favorite bangus recipes.
This dish didn't have any bones in it. It was delicious and a great way for it to be prepared :)
@@AlwaysBeChanging somebody did a good job of de-boning the bangus. :)
Hi guys pilipino happy to all of you and thanks to all promoting our wonderful places and pilipino food my best regard and god bless you guys we love you
Thank you so much. You’re so king 🤗🙏😊
love this video . enjoy the filipino food
Thank you!
First time watching you and I love your energy. You're a natural. 🇵🇭 Can't wait for your vids back in the Philippines. Sinigang is a sour pork soup and that Sinigang fries is interesting.
It was good. A well balanced seasoning.
@@AlwaysBeChanging Cool. Probably their twist on sour cream & onion chips. Safe travels!
I love this family. My favorite vlogger in the world! ❤️
No matter where you go, I still really enjoy your vlogs and my favorite all time family vlogger
Wow 🤩 That is absolutely incredible to hear! ❤️🤗❤️ Thank you thank you

I like everytime you guys describe the food and how it taste like,I mis those food,,,I'm always watching your vlogs❤thank you for always coming back to Philippines🥰
Our pleasure! Thank you for watching us 🤗
OMG, you got me drooling!
Everyone in your family is great at vlogging. Love the food vlog. Young boy can be a great journalist.
Aww thank you so much 🥰 we can’t wait to see what Colt does in life.
What a coincidence. I commented before about basing yourselves in Asia. And you're actually doing it.
Oh btw, watch out for seat sales from local airlines like AirAsia and Cebu Pacific. It's around this time that they offer cheap flights. You can get flights to Hongkong for about $50-60 per person one way. Their domestic flights are also cheaper especially
if you don't have checked luggage.
Thanks for the tip! We’ll watch for it 👍🏻
I love to see you guys enjoying our Filipino food.🎉❤
😊 it was delicious!
Your family is an inspiration
Oh thank you so much ♥️
Awesome guys!
Thanks! 🫶🤗
I meant to comment during Thanksgiving but I remembered you guys going here and had to drop by. No my in laws have a place they can get good Pinoy food when I’m not cooking for them.
