Hey Guys, bangus is usually dip into a vinegar sauce w/ garlic, salt and small red sili pepper. It's normally eaten for breakfast but you can eat it anytime. Dinuguan is another Filipino favorite dish, people here in the states call it chocolate meat. It's an acquired taste so you either like it or hate it. That adobo w/ garlic rice omelette looked really good. Take care guys and mahalo.
@@AmandaFelixEats We are planning on going there when the pandemic is gone but we will indeed show you how to eat Filipino dishes when we meet up. Thank you guys and take care.
That adobo fried rice omelet brings back nothing but good memories! I was born and raised in Makakilo/Kapolei and my grandma and family would go eat at Elena’s all the time. I ALWAYS without question got the adobo fried rice omelette ❤️
We went to Elena's about 9 months ago, and it was great! We had the Fried Pork (one day marinated pork chop w/ vinegar garlic), the Lechon Special, and Dinuguan (pork with blood). All three of these meals were awesome! I have only known Dinuguan as Chocolate Meat, but this was exactly like my family used to make it! The marinated vinegar pork chop was the best as well, definitely need to hit them up again this summer when we go back! Good call on the Filipino food, find more Filipino restaurants, we always watch your channel and make a list before we go to Hawaii! Thanks Amanada and Felix!
For durian first-timers, try a durian smoothie. It does have the odd taste but is somewhat masked by the sugar sweetness. I was adventurous and tried one from the vendor in Kekaulike Market in Chinatown. In the open courtyard, there are two competing places. I went to the one on the right if facing them.
You guys are so right ...you have to eat filipino food with white rice ! Great combination ! Onolicious ! Felix you are Awesome great job being adventurest !!!
Hey guys, I’m Filipino from the Philipines. Yes dinuguan, fried bangus, and adobo omelette are favorite Filipino foods. But please dont be offended because the sari-sari is not a Filipino food I never heard that dish here in the Philipines that is more like a Hawaiian food because its only popular in Hawaii. I tried to search no one selling it here in Manila.
With a huge Filipino population here it’s not surprising they came up with new foods for their people! No offense taken🤙🏻 Hope you can try it for yourself sometime in hawaii🤤
It’s actually more of an Ilocano dish. I definitely ate it growing up in Ilocos. So I would say it is a regional dish not National filipino food. It’s called Dinengdeng. Dinengdeng is very versatile and is basically a variety of mostly veggies and some meat/seafood cooked as a soup served with rice.
Sari Sari has the veg named Upo. It’s good to eat it wd rice too and shrimp paste seasoning, Durian shake better! Leche Flan dessert good too, and cassava cake,
Love how you guys are so adventurous! Thank you for trying out Filipino Cuisine…there’s always something for everyone. I grew up eating fried bangus. We usually pair it with something acidic to counteract the richness (ie calamansi with patis, vinegar with chilis, or a mango salad with onions, tomatoes, & cilantro👍🏻).
Fried Bangus can be eat with mixed soy sauce, small slice tomatoes, vinegar, garlic , small slice onion and red chili... yummy Dinuguan best to eat with putong puti
Another Filipino restaurant you should checkout is Thelma's Restaurant, in the same building as Leeward Drive-In/Westgate SC. FYI...Bangus pronounced Bahn-goose. LOVEE watching you guys video's...Keep It Going!
Great video..Elenas has the best sari sari!!! Dinuguan is awesome too!! Mix it up with the white rice!! You guys awesome..ALOHA from Waipahu! Felix is like me adventurous...but for me think the only thing I would pass on is bow wow and meow, jeje!
Haha so true, the flies love Filipino food 😂 I love that you guys do these foodie adventures & are willing to try new cuisine!! I’m learning with you guys too, even though I’m Filipino 😝
It's great that you try all kinds of local foods, very open, which is good. For the fish, I personally like it with vinegar chili pepper. Also, don't worry about the blood meat, once you get it out of your head, it's all good.
Aloha! You guys are crazy😜🤣😂🤪. Elena’s is the BEST for sure and so glad you tried it. I couldn’t stop laughing at Felix’ pronunciation of Pampanga (correct) and bangus! Haha. Wid all dat ono grindz, why you two no gain single pound?!
Thank you for highlighting Filipino dishes, again, on your channel. Been watching your videos for a while but just recently subscribed to your channel (guilty). I do have family in Oahu, visited multiple times and been watching food bloggers from Hawaii that is probably why your channel came up in my algorithm. I am impressed that both of you enjoyed "dinuguan" and paired it with rice, which is how it is commonly eaten with as a meal, but, as a mid mid-afternoon "mirienda" I would pair it with "puto" which is a pastry/bread that is rice flour based. The sourness of the "dinuguan" paired with the sweetness of the "puto" is a winning combination. I am happy that you both enjoyed it, especially Felix, because it reminded me of having my very first taste of mole while on vacation in Mexico. My mind was blown and I cannot believe that I have never tried it before even though I live in California and I worked with first, second, even third generation Mexican-Americans. The "daing na bangus" is also a Filipino favorite, enjoyed any time of the day but most especially, by me, at breakfast paired with tomato ketchup. Sorry for Filipino purists out there, I grew up eating it with ketchup and not vinegar because to me anything fried has to be paired with ketchup or Mang Tomas lechon sauce. The "sari-sari" dish that Amanda enjoyed looks likes a sautéd mixed vegetables of kundol (wax gourd), patola (luffa), chayote, eggplant in garlic and onions with pork and shrimp, tasty. Sautéing is a ubiquitous technique of cooking a dish where I grew up. It is simple and flavorful and my grandmother can throw in any vegetable to the mix. It was the very first cooking technique I learned from her when I was 13 years old. Mango is my favorite fruit and I have only tried durian in a candy form. Both fruits are common is Southeast Asia, so, you are not far off choosing both desserts while highlighting Philippine dishes. I should take my cue from you guys and take the plunge and be adventurous and try the actual durian fruit. I have been enjoying your videos and it does give me joy seeing both of you getting more comfortable in front of the camera and has become more descriptive while enjoying your food. Special shout out to Davonne and her down to earth persona, love the Sanrio purple shirt. Have a good week and cheers to more adventures! Foodie Ohanas rejoice!
Mahalo for watching and joining our foodie ohana! We love to try new things and be adventurous with the foods we eat! Even though we’re born & raised here there are so much we have to learn about food and culture here in hawaii and we’re happy that we could take our foodie ohana along with us on the journey! Much aloha🤙🏻🤤
Amanda and Felix thank you for sharing and taking us on your Filipino food adventure. Everything looks so good. I tried some Filipino food but not alot. I love Elena's restaurant in Waipahu. I wish we had one in kaneohe. Thanks again
Blood meat, daraaran Ilocano style my favorite!!! Hell Yeah! I know Mellissa & Adrian when they were up here opening their Las Vegas location of Elena's years ago.
New subscriber here to your channel! Great chemistry and relaxing atmosphere set this apart from other local channels like it. It's so easy and soothing to listen to you both. GREAT video and review! I'm a fan! Thank you for your hard work!
The next time you guys visit Elena’s don’t forget to try Sinigang! 😊 And if you guys are adventurous, try Pinapaitan. Normally in the province where my parents are from in the Philippines they cook it with goat meat. I’m more westernized, so I normally eat it with beef. 😅 Loving the Filipino food videos! 🥰
Oh man! I miss Elena's. I live in WA now but originally from 94block, Waipahu. Dinuguan is so 'ono. If you like innards, or want to even level up your adventure from dinuguan, try papaitan or pinapaitan. It is commonly made with beef, if you're lucky, goat and tripe. The flavor is bitter and sour and simmered in bile (level up adventure). Mahalo for sharing your food adventures 👏
Mahalo! Our Hawaii visit was more delicious because of your information! We loved the Barefoot Beach Cafe Kalua Quesadilla and those whole pineapple smoothies tho 🤙🏻
Nice video on more Filipino food. I kinda laughed how Felix pronounced bangus wrong lol. It's pronounced like "bong-os" and the g is silent. :) Also the thing with dinuguan is true lol. When I was a kid, my parents would call it chocolate meat.
Another fun video w the bloopers😂 Don’t know if i can brave the pig blood pudding, but the rest looks amazing! Love Pearlridge too! My old stomping ground! Mahalo for always adding scenes of Hawaii! I certainly appreciate it! 💕👍🏿
Hi Guys, happy to see you try the "lesser" known dishes. The bangus is actually pronounced bung - oos. It was my mom's fave but for me, I didn't like the many tiny bones. I only started liking it when boneless bangus was being sold. Also, I loved that you guys pronounced patis the way we do. Ive heard fil-ams that'll say, "pattis". As for the dinuguan, I loved my dad's, he had perfect amount of vinegar, same as his adobo, and I gotta have the chili peppers in it too.
Fried Milkfish goes well with tomato in vinegar with a little sugar. It is technically not an original from Elena's, the sari sari. All Filipino household has their own version of it.
Hi! The soup looked sooo good! I can eat shrimp, not the pork, but, could eat around it. The soup is Elena’s own creation, so, not traditional? I wonder what a traditional Filipino soup would be… Hi! Lucy!! 🦴
Don't know if Elena's has Shrimp Sarciado...whole shrimp with shell on and you take the head off and suck the juices out before eating the body. Yummo! For your next outing.
Had the Sari sari when Elenas was in Kalihi, it didn't have patis & it was really good. My mom learned how to make diniguan & nope i never liked it, still don't.
Sorry guys my taste are only for ponsit ,lumpia and adobo Diniguan 🙈 I’m not that brave But that egg adobo fried rice looked yummy ,and the soup 😋 Thank you so much Mr Felix and Ms. Amanda 😂 you guys are great 👍
😄Failure is feedback. And feedback is the breakfast of champions.

Yessss!!! I’ve been waiting for this! Las time I saw that place is when Guy Fieri featured it.
Yay!! 🤙🏻🤙🏻🤙🏻
As a FILIPINO myself, I’m picky about how people make it and if it’s authentic. Looks like I got to try this out.
Let us know!!🤙🏻
@@AmandaFelixEats will do. Y’all keep up the good work!
Dipping sauce of bangus is soysauce, calamansi with chili.. yummy

I was adventurous and tried one from the vendor in Kekaulike Market in Chinatown. In the open courtyard, there are two competing places. I went to the one on the right if facing them.
I think your talking about Thanh’s and Mickey cafe! They have ono smoothies🤤🤙🏻
Wow thay is my favorite dinuguan oh! Mouth watering. 🤤

Love leche flan & cassava cake! 🤤
U can eat the fish with garlic rice with an egg called bansilog with tomato and vinegar dip
We love Elenas!! You guys should try Thelma’s too!!! Their thelma’s special is bomb!!!
I grew up with durian, and I could literally smell it thru the video once you said the word lol. Still can’t bring myself to try it
It definitely can be smelly! But once you get over the smell the fruit is ono🤤
Love how you guys are so adventurous! Thank you for trying out Filipino Cuisine…there’s always something for everyone. I grew up eating fried bangus. We usually pair it with something acidic to counteract the richness (ie calamansi with patis, vinegar with chilis, or a mango salad with onions, tomatoes, & cilantro👍🏻).
Mahalo for the tip Ralph! Calamansi sounds like the perfect pairing 🤤
YES! More FILIPINO FOOD!!!!
Yay!!! More to come soon!🤤🤙🏻
Fried Bangus can be eat with mixed soy sauce, small slice tomatoes, vinegar, garlic , small slice onion and red chili... yummy
Dinuguan best to eat with putong puti
Daeng Bangus - dip it in vinegar and patis and mix garlic and black pepper in that sauce. So good. 😊
We gotta pack our own vinegar and patis soon🤤
Love Durian.. in boba and durian candy delicious and once you get past the smell the fruits delicious.
Exactly! The smell doesn’t even both us now!😋
I love you guys!!! Dinuguan is absolutely delicious! My favorite Filipino dish of all time!!!
Glad you love it like us! Mahalo Brent🤙🏻

Awww mahalo! The sun burn was 🥵 lol
“Off pudding” lmao 😂 ☠️. Felix you’re brilliant!

Next time ask for the vinegar with Ong choy. It’s good for dipping the fish or everything else. Fish sauce- patis
Haha so true, the flies love Filipino food 😂 I love that you guys do these foodie adventures & are willing to try new cuisine!! I’m learning with you guys too, even though I’m Filipino 😝
Love learning about cultures through food! Mahalo KiVlogs
Indigenous Australians (Islanders) we also eat pig/pork blood I love it can't wait to try it Filipino style
So many ways to eat it! So far we’ve only tried Chinese, Vietnamese and Korean styles!
You've done Elena's. Next is Thelma's right down the street, then try Julie's in Kapolei! 🇵🇭😋🇵🇭
I have tried fresh durian in Bangkok. Tasted like mushy onions. Also tried the durian chips.
Yummm! For the fried bangus and adobo fried rice omelette, you have to try it with vinegar! Sooooo good! 🤤
We definitely will next time🤤🤙🏻 mahalo!
nice haul. they do give out extra vinegar with water cress or vinegar with chili and garlic. i look at Dinuguan as blood stew. good over rice.
Would love to see you folks try balut on camera 😉 BTW love the channel! Thank you for taking us along with you on your foodie adventures 🤙
Maybe one day!🤙🏻
Sari Sari is so ono! We eat it homemade with homemade lenchon kawali for Christmas! Making lenchon is easier than you think.
We gotta try making lechon 😋
Durian!!! Laughed at Felix “pudding” off joke!
I have been wanting to go to Elena’s for Sari Sari and pancit!

Wow looks yummy
Was yum!🤙🏻🤤

I love durian too!!!
With (Daing na Bangus) we use either spiced vinegar, or Filipino soy sauce with calamansi/lime and crushed chilies.
We will try it with the condiments next time! 👍
Sari sari is my favorite!
Amanda and Felix thank you for sharing and taking us on your Filipino food adventure. Everything looks so good. I tried some Filipino food but not alot. I love Elena's restaurant in Waipahu. I wish we had one in kaneohe. Thanks again

You guys are troopers. I’m Filipino and still afraid to try diniguan. Dope vids always. 23k road to 100k soon
We had to try it!🤤 mahalo for the kindness Justin🤙🏻
What are you afraid of
They should be providing condiments for you... restaurants here in the Philippines provide condiments even if the order is takeout or delivery.
Yes agreed!
Nice video on more Filipino food. I kinda laughed how Felix pronounced bangus wrong lol. It's pronounced like "bong-os" and the g is silent. :) Also the thing with dinuguan is true lol. When I was a kid, my parents would call it chocolate meat.
So many people call it chocolate meat! Mahalo🤙🏻
Yes Bangus 😮💨😮💨
🤤🤤🤤
I Love durian! Costs an arm and a leg where I live though.
How I miss their food!!!
Awww! Hope you can eat it again soon Edward🤙🏻
Another fun video w the bloopers😂 Don’t know if i can brave the pig blood pudding, but the rest looks amazing! Love Pearlridge too! My old stomping ground! Mahalo for always adding scenes of Hawaii! I certainly appreciate it! 💕👍🏿
You should definitely try it one day! We were apprehensive too but it turned out good! 👍
Try ice garden for shave ice in aiea! my fave ;P

Go to Pattaya on Cooke Street!!
Felix, next time you eat "dinner on the run", try it with some hot sauce.😉
You can ask for condiments. If you don’t know which condiments come with the dish, just ask them.

Durian scares me. Never tried but curious.
Always try at least once! Or twice 🤙🏻🤤
amazing video! Those foods look so good =)
Mahalo🙌🏼🥰
don't they have chicken inasal or ilonggo food in HI? you will love it too, promise that...
The best pair for the Dinuguan is “puto”, a pluffy rice cake
We gotta try that next!😋
Fried Milkfish goes well with tomato in vinegar with a little sugar. It is technically not an original from Elena's, the sari sari. All Filipino household has their own version of it.
Interesting, we'll have to try it like that next time 👍
@@AmandaFelixEats the tomato is sliced. kinda like a pickled tomato.
Have to tried Omurice?
Patsy Mink Park in Waipio is nearby!!!
Mahalo for letting us know!
@@AmandaFelixEats Yes! It’s a beautiful park with tables, benches and restrooms!!! Lots of parking too!!! 🚗
Try Balut. If you know you know….
The fish sauce is Patis. :))
Yes! Patis🐟
Nice try with the pronunciation of bangus. It’s more like buh-ngoose…or just ask the workers when u pick up the food. We totally enjoy your videos!!
Mahalo! 🤙
Aloha Foodies!!! 🤙🏾
Aloha Walt🤙🏻
Hi! The soup looked sooo good! I can eat shrimp, not the pork, but, could eat around it. The soup is Elena’s own creation, so, not traditional? I wonder what a traditional Filipino soup would be…
Hi! Lucy!! 🦴
Turns out sari sari is traditional! I guess it depends on what's in it? Maybe you could try it without the pork 🤔 Lucy says hi! 🐾
Can you guys go to skewers like Fujiyama Texas 😁
Sounds ono🤤🤙🏻
At first I thought Lucy was a goat. cuz of the ears lol
Have u been on bretman rock foodtruck?
We haven’t yet! Is it good?🤤🤙🏻
Don't know if Elena's has Shrimp Sarciado...whole shrimp with shell on and you take the head off and suck the juices out before eating the body. Yummo! For your next outing.
Gotta love shrimp heads🦐🤤
Had the Sari sari when Elenas was in Kalihi, it didn't have patis & it was really good. My mom learned how to make diniguan & nope i never liked it, still don't.
🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭
🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼
Sorry guys my taste are only for ponsit ,lumpia and adobo Diniguan 🙈 I’m not that brave
But that egg adobo fried rice looked yummy ,and the soup 😋
Thank you so much Mr Felix and Ms. Amanda 😂 you guys are great 👍
You should try it next time! It really isn't that bad 😬 Mahalo as always Laurie! 🤙
Man my kids is half white half Filipino. Blood meat is their fav Filipino food 😀
