Lipa Batangas Famous for Barako Coffee ☕
History. Barako coffee was introduced to the Philippines in the 1740s by Spanish friars. It was originally planted in the lowlands of Lipa, Batangas. From there it spread to other areas in the province, and Batangas became known for its coffee locally.
I have lived in Lipa City for 3 years. As an expat, I love it here. Not as crazy as Manila. Cheap rent, friendly people, and close to the airport, the port of Batangas, AND close to the BI to get your visa extensions done. It has everything that you need here. Great and convenient bus service, tuk tuks, jeepneys, and vans that have air conditioning. And very few expats here. If you want a bigger city than the Provence but smaller than Manila on Luzon, it's hard to beat. And the kids aren't begging, they are selling flowers for your car. 20 pesos for one. I usually buy 5.
Batangas is alo known for their bulalo, the famous filipino beef soupy, my uncle lives there with his wife, never been there but someday will, God willing 😊
The food looks good. When my wife's relatives make the food it's fantastic and of course it's Philippine. I love their dishes. Its great to be married too a Filipina.
Wow sir i am from Batangas city thanks to explore in my hometown you will enjoy 100%❤
Thank you bro for visiting my town. Hope you have a great time and staying safe too. That’s the place where I grew up. And missing a lot of things from there.❤❤
The Cathedral of San Sebastian is a Metropolitan See. That means its an Archdiocese and headed by an Archbishop that oversees Batangas and the other dioceses in Aurora, Quezon, Laguna, Mindoro and Marinduque provinces...
I am salivating now ,I like Lomi 😊,I like plenty of calamansi. Chop suey tasty .
Great video! Glad to see your subs growing daily. You deserve it.
nice travel bro
A Canadian guy said he’s from Iloilo 💙 Nice to see you’re feeling at home in the 🇵🇭. Enjoy your travels 🙏
Thanks for the short Tour of Lipa City, enjoyed it, thank you Michael....Jim
I've been to lipa batangas several time but only for business and I liked it, its a lot cleaner and less crowded then calamba city.
True
Because Lipa City is one of the rich cities of Batangas ,,
It’s big in. Area and very progressive with many Big Universities and Colleges and Big Malls and Hospitals ..
But Calamba is in Laguna right?
@@Siopaoko yes calamba is in laguna
Lipa is one of the rich LGU in Batangas, Philippines in terms of their city income.
Little known fact about Manitoba that may or may not involve beer: When you're losing consciousness from the cold during a blizzard, just before your toes fall off you start to feel kinda warm. Also, if it hasn't been mentioned somewhere -- lomi is lo mein.
Interesting facts
Also the home of My PI Dream, like a home show of building and do it yourself
You are brave,,Filipinos are not precise in giving directions but you are adventurous,,kudos to you,,!
Many Filipinos food servers just give the food without explaining it, just like that Lomi they dont explained that it needs a soysauce and chopped onions for the flavor to be completed, if you dont mix soy sauce with onion on that it is not a complete flavor, Just like the Kare Kare filipino servers dont explained to foriegn customer that it needs to mix some shrimp paste for the original kare kare flavor to be completed, resulting for the foriegners to not liking the food because its lacking in flavor and bland
I like the way you present your videos; I feel like I'm walking beside you. Keep up the good work!
I love seeing the markets with the fresh fruits and vegetables that each city has to offer..
I always get double beds and use the second one for clothes and staging stuff.
Love the shirt keep up the good work man!
Lomi King: Located at J.P. Laurel Highway in Lipa City
My P I Dream is the only other vlogger that has filmed around there. Great channel. I'm glad to see you are exploring some new places. Congrats
Hotel Solano was a nice stay and good deal. Batangas kape is bold tasting. Sorry to hear you werent able to go to Tagaytay. The bulalo there would have redeemed your disappointment with the lomi. Also great buko pie from Cecilia's
i see you have been enjoying the place... must be nicer and more enjoyable for you when you have someone to join you like a friend or sumthin.
Cool vid. From what I’ve seen, Lipa seems very similar to where I currently am in Tanza, Cavite. Keep up the good work :)
Thanks!
Scott you are super kind! Thank you too!
Stay safe always Mike 😮
Liam’s Lomi House: Situated on Gen. Luna St.
The new camera picture quality is very good!!!
Excellent I'm very happy
Hi Michael nice video. Looks like a nice city. May tour it someday. Today I started my move to Roxas City. Bus , ferry from Dumaguete to Iloilo. Spend the night and tomorrow back on the bus to Roxas City. Looking forward to your next video.
Have fun!
LIPA CITY is a beautiful very progressive city
It’s clean and lots of Cafe , Restaurants , Resorts and Hotels ,,, Lots of Big Malls ,,,
We always enjoy family bindings in Lipa City Batangas
Many Universities and Colleges in Lipa City , it’s one of many progressive cities of Batangas.
Next time please visit Batangas City , the Capital City of Batangas Province
He was there briefly at the ferry dock, Port of Batangas where he began his journey into Luzon
😁🤣you’re doing well Michael!
Enjoy living!
Hi Michael, thanks for the video. Lipa City didn't seem so warm in terms of the climate and the atmosphere. All that walking to find lomi, only to be disappointed. Sorry it didn't quite turn out to your liking but can't say I blame you as it is rich in cholesterol. I can tell the health session has made you a little more cautious in your food choices lol but your drinking more water. Keep grinding.
The served of your lomi is good for 3 person's that's huge😅😋.
New subscriber here.
The best to make lomi makes yummy to eat and tasty is pour many calamansi w/ chili and some sauce
Corcolon Lomi House: This unique establishment offers a Lechon and Lomi combo, setting it apart from others. It’s conveniently located near SM City Lipa
The new camera is fantastic!
Please try bulalo and tawilis fish. It’s very popular there and also their buko pie.
Hello🙂, M has a great video in which he eats bulalo at an IloIlo City establishment with his friend, Francis (who recommended it as the best bulalo of that city). He’s eaten it in other places too thru the years, like in buffets at people’s homes or fiestas. But that vlog I mention is a cool one which focused on the bulalo dish & it was impressive. The vlog is the one in which Francis & Michael tour around the city on bicycle & a razor type scooter.
Bataan is near Pampanga, you could have pass by before going to Batangas.
I stayed at that hotel back in November and went to the market
The word for the plaza is “Independencia” as in independence. I notice that a lot of places are called Independencia over there. I wonder if this has a lot to do with the history of being under Spanish rule for so many years.
Those are some crowded streets my friend. Did you think he was a feeler and not a healer? Hahaha. How was the coffee? Lomi did not look so good. Another great video.
😋😋😋💕💕💕 Lomi 🎊Enjoy Michael 💝
Happy endings with the massage? lol
6:26 WTH!?? Look at the back of the jeepney 😮😮😮
lomi king is the famous you can find it near de lassalle lipa
There are some really nice hotels and resorts. They all seem empty and you hardly ever see anyone enjoying the amenities.
Oh man that pork and onion looked great
They are called winter melon i believe.
Someone tell him, you don't actually eat the bones, just the meat around the bones😄
Oh I know I just am not a fan of worrying if I'm going to bite into a bone. If it's mixed in a dish it's hard to tell
@@ThatPhilippinesLife fair enough. that makes sense
I was close to that area two weeks ago. I went to the wifes family home in Bulihan. Always get hello Joe as they think I am from the USA but I have to keep telling them I am from the UK. Always fun
We are all Joe
Well, Putting U.S. Politics Aside, I'd rather be called "Joe" than "Bloke!!" 🤔😂😎
Looks like girlfriend hunting mode my friend :) go for it, it bring spice to life hehe... take care always.
bonne nuit l'hôtel où vous avez séjourné est sympa......
Love your channel.
You were about 200 m from your hotel Solano to Lima’s Lomi house. It was disappointing that you didn’t make it there. Check your Google Maps next time.
Never trust getting directions from a local FYI! Lol
@That Philippines Life. Michael i love your t-shirt that you where wearing while doing your live in Angeles city.
Were did you get it man?
Sorry not sure exactly but was a kiosk in the Robinson mall
so sad the go pro got busted! but the DJI your using thee footage seems a bit better, a really nice find. 💪
Better at night too
@@ThatPhilippinesLife ohh Cool.. Good 🙏
22:05 holy crap 😮lomi special 😮 for one only 95
Check with a couple stores that sell that camera and ask about repair. If it can be fixed and the price is right you'll have a spare and another thing to carry around with you.
The top button broke off a d the entire back screen plus it sat in deep water soaked right through while it was on. I'm pretty sure the repair is the same as a new camera.
Michael, i don’t understand why you just kept walking looking for that lomi place instead of asking directions from people on the street? 😀
If u want to go somewhere ride a trycle but beware of abusive triclye drivers theres some are charging u overprice for a ride maybe b4 u ride ask some descent bystander there whats the fair price to pay
I hate to see busted equipment. I had my DJI pocket stolen in Nicaragua. Now have to use iphone..oh well love your vids!
I gotta admit. It still feels very odd watching you without seeing and hearing Bianca in the background. Any chances you guys are gonna be in the same city-doing a joint video-again in the near future? Take care of that cold, bud. Keep up the good work!
Thankfully the cold is gone now this day that was recorded you can hear I still had the nasal stuffed up. It was the final day type thing. I'm sure when I'm back in Iloilo she and I will be at the same thing while recording
From solano hotel to sm is only P50.00 in tricycle
👍✅😜✅👍
Previous video you can't find brewed coffee now you can't find lomi. Fate is playing with you 😂
Always try to bring face masks 😷 take it out from your pocket put it on whenever you’re riding on a low ride motorbike in Philippines in that way you are not smelling hacking the diesel fuel from the vehicle stay away all those noodles they’re fattening for you. Those restaurant does not drain fat.
No. Lomi King is the best place for Lomi in Lipa.
Since you're going to Manila try to visit the American Cemetery
Sorry this video was recorded several days ago as you saw on my live yesterday I'm in Angeles City and actually heading north again tomorrow
Michael vs. Bianca
If viewers need to know about hotels..Booking
Com and Agoda..give you prices and reviews
Unfortunately I ran into issues with the photos on Agoda were not realistic several times
@ThatPhilippinesLife Pillipines life is not about hotels..most are in grinding povery..and will marry older foreighners to improve their life..
However i lived there for 8 years and loved it. I did not know the ones who stayed in 200 plus dollar a night hotels.
Olongapo on Luzon Island the main island was where I lived.
14:41 You ask a young pinoy to take you to Loni
They will for 💯 😂😅😅
WHAT CAMERA ARE U USING NOW
This is a DJI Action 4
Did you remember to buy new slippers at the SM mate?
I got new ones as gifts I have 3 pairs now and two pairs of shoes so all is good
It may help to cut the richness & fat/grease to squeeze in some calamansi….”oh goopey! (In pleasant tone) me: LOL
P.s. ⬆️no shade, I LUV fat/oil/grease!
Is there a huge lake there?
The Taal Volcano one?
DJI review please! Is it the 2 or 3 you got?
DJI action 4 and so far so good
Nice we are looking at DJI pocket 3, but price is a bit scary....
Hahaha, it's okay, to be honest about the food man. If you didn't like it just say it as it is. You hate the texture right😂
It's the texture yes, taste wasn't the problem
You not asking those girls at 18:37 is understandable, it is a odd situation. But I am going to have to pull your Man-Card for 12 hours, sorry bro, lol. But seriously, they were ALL into you and you say girls are not that into you! WHAT? LOL. Great video bro, just please take the chance to say hello. You are a tall and a good looking guy, they may be a little intimidated, but I know they will chillax after a few minutes!
Haha yea it's a mix of I'd rather find someone close to my home so. I don't have to log distance date, and I got no game 😂
They also didn't even. Say hi back and looked away so you saw something I didnt
He's a chick magnet and a humble man
@@ThatPhilippinesLife Bro, they loved you. Try the James Bond rule. Walk in half as fast, talk half a quickly. Know what you want. And just give a half smile as you wait for them to speak. You got This, you basically are Bond! (Just in double speed,.lol).
@@KevinVenturePhilippines haha I love it. I always notice afterwards they look as I'm leaving
What happened to your Partner are you separated? Is she doing her own youtube vlogg?
GPS helps 🤔
Yes lol
So many people on their phones 😂😂😂
Way more overweight people than I thought
do you travel alone? you said to the hotel clerk "WE need a room for the night."
Just me alone. Proverbial we, I take you all along with me.
@@ThatPhilippinesLife You should bring a dog with you!
@@jetd9716 so many places wouldn't allow a dog plus I'm taking the bus on this trip
The royal “we” 😉🤴
Lipa traffic is horrendous and noisy. Best to avoid this city.
This one street for sure no matter time of day
I'm surprised there were no sidewalks or other main streets to alleviate the traffic. Batangas is the 3rd richest province in the Philippines and yet they can't spend money to improve infrastructure??
@@edj3873 almost all cities in the PH are like that, even in NCR. What I like about the infrastructure in Batangas is that almost all roads, even those in the outskirts are paved, lighted and asphalted.
You single out our city. How about NCR? 😂😂😂
But I do agree that Lipa is noisy and traffic is horrendous unlike before, but still not like in Manila. I live near the mountain in Lipa.
Why do you always want to show us the market place?...lol!!!
...Nice hotel though where you are staying at...
The marketplace is the soul of a place. When I visit any city or town, the first places i immediately go to are the church, the plaza, the public market, and the tourist attractions. The rest are bonuses.
Market places in the Philippines all look the same...The history of a town are in the historical places and landmarks. I understand it requires times to research about them. 😊
@armandosube3839 I concur with your priorities🙂! 💒🏢🐟🍎🍍🥑🌱🍖💸🏰🏛️More specifically, I’d list museums & historical sites for “tourist attractions” . We also enjoy driving or walking older or historic neighborhoods to look at houses. I’m the big church house & museum person though. Thank goodness we agree on gotta visit the public markets. Happy travels to you! From a fellow wondering wanderer 🏁🚙🛣️🏞️⛴️✈️🌍
P.s. please excuse error to your name sune not sube….
@@wintersojourn9356 if Museums, Art Galleries, older neighborhoods especially with grand Spanish and early American and, well-maintained American era and Spanish era plazas and parks, squares, public flower gardens, riverside Esplanades, biking lanes, monuments, Spanish era belfries and fountains, grand churches and cathedral, heritage buildings both public and private - are your type of sites to stroll around, then the right place for you is my city - ILOILO CITY. And you can visit district after district in ILOILO CITY using only public transportation. But all our public markets are being torn and reconstructed with new buildings right now, and will be ready only by 2025 or 2026. Try our local favorite dishes: La Paz Batchoy (at POPOY'S, Deco's, or Ted's, or Alicia's, or Netong's); Pancit Molo (at Kap Ising's, or at JD Cafe/bakery); Iloilo Chicken Inasal (at Chicken Sari-sari at Commission Civil street in Jaro; or at Barrio Inasal at Aurora Subdivision, City Proper); Kansi (at Patpat's Kansi Haus in Seminario Road in Jaro); Roberto's SIOPAO; Valenciana and KBL ( at the Central Market temporary stalls). Try the native restaurants TATOY'S; BREAKTHROUGH; BALAY INASAL at Quezon street; DUMALAG'S SINGLE -DOUBLE LINAGA NGA PATA and BEEF , at Quezon street, near SM-Delgado.
Lol !!! You ask if you can count the pretty girls but I didn't see any in your video. 🤣🤣🤣
eat up! You're a young man and you walk a lot... Last time I went to the doctor, he said I was far too sedentary... so I made a solemn VOW, at that very moment........ that I'm gonna go buy a dictionary.....
Filming people in a sanctuary? Just asking and not blasting you, but is that cool?
I do it respectfully, most Catholic churches film and broadcast live online too
Intriguing question, gonna try to be succinct. (I failed!). My opinions only as a devout Catholic. I think it is helpful for viewers of a travel & lifestyle vlog to see the inside of area churches. In the Philippines, the churches are usually among the oldest, most historic buildings in a town , or the site anyways, as the church may have undergone reconstructions thru the centuries. For the non-religious, it may be interesting architecturally, historically or artistically. I am thankful for any views of Christian art & architecture, & I also have personal religious devotion to some icons, like in this cathedral there was a replica of the statue of the “Black Nazarene”. The original is in…oh I forget but in Manila area. Binondo? Lotsa devotees to that devotion. I asked M to film the statue but in that church, they had signs not allowing photography. I don’t know if that’s a spiritual choice of that Bishop or an art preservation choice, as I know photography can be damaging to artworks. [We call it a devotion, different representations of Our Lord Jesus like Sacred Heart of Jesus or Black Nazarene or Senor Santo Nino (which is essentially devotion to contemplation of Jesus’ infancy & childhood). In Philippines, I think it is difficult to enter a church when there isn’t something going on funerals, weddings, baptisms, Masses in general . Catholic Churches in my country used to be open to anyone & unlocked 24-7, in my lifetime that ended, to my sadness. I understand that you meant specifically filming though, but to me, the benefits of respectful presentation outweigh any potential negatives. M. has been respectful, he’s shown many shrines & churches. Usually pretty brief, too brief for me! lol but I get it. He never has walked up onto altar area, for example. And I may not love but also don’t mind much being photographed or filmed if I’m praying in a church or shrine, as M said, many Catholic Churches livestream Masses & Perpetual Adoration & I think we’re aware that there is no guaranteed privacy as a part of our Tradition.💒🛐😌🕊️
P.s. no privacy expectations in our Tradition, now I recalled- except for re: sacrament of confession.
Michael, how is the Toe coming along ?. Nice to see you are Drinking LOT'S of WATER. Michael, all those CUTE waitress's, lets see you get a DATE. Don, CA.
It's all better
Good to hear, Don, CA.
Napansin ko lang hindi pala magandang governor si Vilma, parang walang maganda nangyari sa Lipa.
Why just mentioned Vilma? She didn't hold the position for years now. And Lipa is a City. Walang dagat sa amin. Wala masyadong darayuhin. Wala na rin kaming mga taniman ng kape, matagal na, kung meron man, konti na lang.
Wala maman sadyang makikita sa Lipa kundi resort. Saka bundok. At maraming bahayan. Dumami na ang bahay sa Lipa, puro mga bahay na tinanim 'di na mais. At techno park. Pero kung school at hospitals marami kami n'yan kasi yun ang priority. Education at health. Bawat barangay sa amin may eskwelahan. At di mo po siguro nakita nun mga daanan sa amin, lalo na sa secondary roads, puro rough road. Putikan, ngayon aspaltado na.
Kung sa tourism po ang hinahanap n'yo, wala po talaga sadya kaming maibibida na, at wala rin po kayong masyadong makikita.
So, kung governance, Recto pa rin po kami. Kasi nararamdaman namin yung tax namin kahit papano. 😅
Lipa just looks super chaotic and extremely noisy ! -- Not very 'comfortable' (looking) for an - 'old fart' - like me ? -- I have heard that @ 1000 ft above sea level it is cooler. It is reported to be a low cost of living as well. - - - Peace and quiet appears - impossible ? - - - Sad not to see 'anything' in Lipa worth looking at - a huge disappointment !!! --- Perhaps away from the city center maybe was better ? - - - Tagaytay would have been much more to my liking --🤔 but you skipped it ?!? 👎
I lived in Lipa for a year. It has to be the ugliest city in the Philippines, nothing redeeming about it.
Was it cooler in climate the year you were there (as compared to other areas of Luzon)?
@@wintersojourn9356 not noticeably. Don't know why it should be cooler. No high elevation, no sea breeze. The climate in Lipa would not be a reason to live there. There is some manufacturing there and some tech companies I think that draw foreigners to Lipa but I see no other reason to live in this drab city. There's beauty everywhere else in the Philippines but not in Lipa.
@johntaylor Ty for replying. I’m unfamiliar with LC, but cooler weather is high on our priority list (esp mine). So when M mentioned the climate in this vlog, I noted it. You have experience, & I respect that. But wiki did list cooler temps as typical of the region…. We also know of Baguio, Antique maybe? tho that is in Visayas so obviously more south than Luzon. & northernmost Luzon, I forget the name just now….
@wintersojourn9356 baguio definitely cooler, due to high elevation.
It's known as the summer place for the rich. I've been there a few times.
Bloggers and comments talk about cool weather in Valencia I think. Search for GIO in the Philippines. I think he can give you better information
@wintersojourn9356 ok it's no accident. My 4 replies to you have all been deleted.
Why goin lipa?? If u not search what u looking for u can ask somebody there can help u there
Lipa is famous on Lomi Batangas
