VIDEO: Adobo (Filipino “Let It Go” Parody)

If you’re still on the Frozen bandwagon, then I have some hilarious news.

YouTuber Mikey Bustos parodied Frozen‘s “Let It Go” with adobo.

Adobo. “Let It Go.” I mean, it was bound to happen, right?

Quite frankly, I’m over the Frozen hype, and if I hear that piano intro again, I may just rip my hair out. But, I can let it slip just once more.

I might have to make some pork carnitas adobo after watching this video.

(By the way, excuse my lack of posts lately. The holidays sure can be relaxing! I recently had this ube/leche flan cupcake the other day, and I’m dying to talk about it in my next blog post! If you’re interested, find the picture of it on my Instagram, @eatfortoday!)

VIDEO: FUNG BROS FOOD: Filipino Food w/ AJ Rafael

If you still feel like you’re not quite grasping the basics of Filipino food, then the video above may teach you a few things about my homeland’s cuisine.

The video features YouTube sensations the Fung Brothers and Richie Le venturing deep in to the scary abyss known as West Covina, Calif. to try Filipino food. They also bring Filipino-American musician AJ Rafael along to give them a rundown on his culture’s food.

VIDEO: Americans Try Filipino Street Food

Filipino street food is a bit funky… but nonetheless delicious.

The video above, uploaded by YouTube channel BuzzFeedYellow, shows Americans trying Filipino street food for the first time. Some familiar favorites include fish balls and turon (deep fried banana/jackfruit spring roll). Their reactions are absolutely hilarious and pretty surprising.

When I last visited the Philippines back in 2006, I remember my family driving through the town of Apalit in the province of Pampanga (which, according to my father, is known to be the “Culinary Capital”) when we pulled over to buy balut (fertilized duck eggs). Oh boy, is that stuff potent.

What Filipino street foods have you tried?
