His wife said don't embarrass me with your spam and eggs cook a proper meal. I really enjoyed watching this. Well done Chef

This is 100% legit Filipino, sure his style of sinigang will differ from other people/regions but what makes it legit is the fact that his wife said "don't just do spam and eggs" even though that is deadass what every filipino does when they want a quick meal. It's either that or Libby's canned corned beef or yeah the can of sardines. My family uses the Victoria brand. If you don't wanna cook at all though, tuyo, or just sprinkled with soy sauce over hot white rice (although everything I just mentioned is eaten with rice). Like i think his wife has the same mentality as my mom "don't do that! It's too simple. Everyone can fry an egg and spam. Show them an actual meal!" Because as Filipinos you always want to make sure your guests eat.

As a Filipino chef, I too love to eat spam and rice after work because it’s delicious, fast, and easy. No one wants to come home from a busy service and do an hour of prep.

I like this series. Chefs work their asses off and often people don't appreciate it.

Omg as a child i had a Filipino domestic helper and she would cook this and I LOVED IT. She went back home after almost a decade with my family but I never managed to get the name of this dish, FINALLY

When we cook our food, everything is eyeballed. We only stop when our ancestors whisper in our ears 😂 thank you for featuring Filipino food and a Filipino chef!! Really enjoyed this episode

I loved that he used Kangkung (the green vegetable he put in right before the prawns in the sinigang). It’s really popular in Indonesian cuisine too and I LOOOOOVE it. I cooked it 3-4 times last week 😂

Seeing Filipino culture and content in more mainstream media makes me so happy as someone born and raised here in the US.

When chef started adding more and more tamarind soup mix, I knew I would like him. I love my sinigang extra sour.

Thank you for featuring a Filipino chef! Both dishes looked so good!

When he said that the rice needs to be perfect or else everybody gets mad. I felt that.

as a filipino, this makes my heart want to burst !! the way he speaks of food and his experiences with it, the amount of care and affection he puts into every single one of his dishes and how he always makes a point to share the food with others is so quintessentially pinoy. i know for a fact that if i was a bisita in his home that i'd feel very welcomed and accepted! loved this video vm!!

i cannot believe my sinigang, an ultimate comfort food, made it in this channel. i love you guys.

Absolutely LOVE this series please make so many more!!! It’s so fascinating

this a man of the people. ik it’s basic but I always found sardines, spam, and 2 eggs over rice to be the most comforting meal

This is a brilliant idea for a series. Looking forward to watching more of these these

This was very interesting to watch! 😊 All of those dishes look amazing!

Me currently eating pork sinigang 👀 I also want to vouch for the sinigang is a once a week thing - especially as I've had sinigang twice this week already. It's so easy to make and is very filling. Also tastes better reheated!

The chef's comments are inspirational. Love the video!

I think in Bangladeshi cuisine, we would cook couple of curries with the vegetables he put in one soup! It’s bind blowing how diverse cooking can be in different cultures, even though we are dealing with the same items!

Thankful that my grandmother lives with us so I can enjoy some sinigang every few weeks. Been eating since I was a child and is by far my favorite and most comforting meal to have.

$43 for that meal is WILD

I love this kind of cuisine, fresh ingredients which maintain their freshness and taste. Looks delicious and I believe taste even better!

Such a amazing concept for food videos... You guys will kill it with this series 💙

Did I see that right, $43 dollars? 👀 Good for him, but that's crazy.

I see spamsilog ang I knew right away Kuya Lord is a filo. Lol. I love how close to authentic he wants the dishes to be. Knowing that not all ingredients can be found, or at least hard to find, where he was at, it was a delight to see him use so many ingredients local to the Philippines.

Love this series! ❤

I hate to thirst but he’s so dreamy. He seems very welcoming & demonstrates great conversationalist skills by stacking each recipe with information without being overly verbose.

I love this series so much!

6:18-6:20 those are ripe tamarind. They are sweeter and we eat it like a candy. Usually rolled in sugar and wrapped with colored cellophane. Not used for Sinigang, unless you prepare sweet sinigang haha On the sinigang mix packet, there's an image of unriped Tamarind, which are bigger in size and has a sour taste.

i really like this! i hope it becomes a series

This is great, love this show.

Nice work chef, Ty.

Really enjoyed this episode!

love this series!

This is adorable. & "I just wanted to make spam and eggs but my wife...." 😂😂 omg. Do not underestimate fried, sliced spam.

Love that guy!! He needs his own show.

Oh man, totally love this guy

Now we gotta really have that 24 hour Filipino food challenge Inga

man i miss my dad now, he was an architect but he loved to cook, when he went to an asian cooking school, he would bring all food home for me to try =)

Stick with what you love to eat. Wise words!

So happy for a new ATE vid!

I visited Kuya Lord weeks back, food was truly amazing, chef is super nice

I love sinigang na hipon. Reminds me of my dad. I would have used the whole sinigang flavour packet from jump lol.

These prawns come from my home country ! New Caledonia is a small island in the Pacific Ocean and the sea food is very nice here :) Love the video

and watching this at 12:13 am makes me crave for sinigang 🤤

Loove hearing his accent. it's so endearing

This was great!

His cooking is three steps above a local Filipino meal.He studied his menu and added several twist and culture and soul in a known menu!

Cool! Sinigang over rice is my gunbo! I need to go to your restaurant if I'll be in LA.

The tray looks amazing but $43 is sooo much for that portion size.

Aww he is so real for loving spam & eggs❤ I love this video he seemed happy to share his fav dish. Def something i would try. My dad cooks something similar to this a few times out of the month. Its something about dads that can cook, they can REALLY cook😂 theres no in between😂❤

I really appreciate the friendly interaction with the crew behind the camera (just need them to be mic'ed up). That is one janky pot :-)

I miss eating chami. It's savory,sweet and spicy at the same time. I remember my days in Lucena city quezon eating chami topped with crushed chicharon. 😍

Chapeau to Lord Maynard Ilera! !! He puts Filipino food on another level.

Was not expecting to see the prawns from my own country! New Caledonian prawn are the best!

Eating Chef Boyardee while watching this. You don't even know how much I wish I could cook like this lol

Kainan na!!!

YES us chefs love to eat simply at home !

I saw the BBQ vid on the Alvin channel ages and thought it's a shame there's not more than the 4 or so on there. Then found this! ive been living under a rock 🤣

Your wife made a great decision to sway your dish to sinigang! It looks delicious 🤤

OMG Kagutom naman.😭 Penge po.

As he add more veg to the soup I realise that in my country have a similar dish as well. We share some common ingredients like tomato, eggplant, a type of meat and the broth is sour. Maybe I could try and make sinigang hmmm

Yay

I love Filipino food. Never been to a restaurant since we don't really have one here in Nairobi where I live, but I'll definitely try one at soon as I get the chance.

This looks delicious. Why do I torture myself by watching these videos at midnight 😅

hope this will turn into a series

I Hope The Crew Tried The Sinigang :) In Vietnam We Have A Similar Dish Called Canh Chua

waah masak sayur asem

This guy's legit Pinoy even the dishes he chose, chami is one of the pancit types that are not as popular as other types but his is legit. He must be from Batangas. Edit: oops he's from Lucena in Quezon. They have great regional food over there!

In Indonesia it called by "Sayur Asam". Almost same 😍

mom's sinigang will never be beaten ❤‍🔥

I looked at him and I was like "cool guy", and then he spoke and I'm like, "PINOY??" XD Wonderful, great, perfect, love seeing my culture on the YT screen.

if you’re making pork sinigang especially, add this gamechanger: tonkatsu ramen [bone broth] concentrate I always disliked the thin body of sinigang broth, but to build a stock you’d have to roast, braise, and skim fish or pork bones; now they do that in giant factory vats and bottle it

Chami ba yon? Omg ❤️ Im from Candelaria Quezon

The herb he puts in before the prawns- what is it? The dish looked amazing!!

That wife whisper of approval. The gold standard.

finally! an authentic.

the knorr sinigang mix is just so acurate haha

this is my favorite sinigang, sinigang na hipon. 2nd is sinigang na baboy sa bayabas. You should try it 😃

The guy speaking in the beginning (Brent?) sounds a lot like the Vogue interviewer that does the 72 questions videos

Sinigang taste best during the rainy season in the Philippines. A good sinigang can remove that fatigue.

Yay I really love sinigang!

Im definitely contented with the spam and egg but my gf be wanting me to cook something healthy hahaha, I feel loved and cared so there's that.

COME ON! BRING FILIPINO CUISINE TO THE WORLD! ❤️❤️❤️✨️👊☝️👏👏👏🙌🙌

My fiancé is a chef and I assure you I don’t see that when it comes to cooking our own meals, BUT he does cook our meals so good enough for me! He was telling me that most chefs don’t cook at home.

The suka on the vinegar lol

Spam and eggs for dinner after work speaks to me so much as a filipino

yooo is that Batangas chami, it's the first time I've seen someone in the US make chami in a resto, dooope

🤩🤩🤩🤩

I cook my sinigang the exact same way xD I learned it from my dad, and my kids and husband like it super super sour. My niece and nephew hate how sour I make it though xDD

Hope you guys feature Kare Kare later 🙏

👍

11:30 at night 5 days a week if he’s full time. My shift ends at the same time I hate it 😂😂😂 I hope he’s doing okay though. Sucks that us closing crews at restaurants don’t get much daylight time. I don’t mind the night but it gets depressing after awhile.

I miss home.

This dish looks delicious ;o)

Man... Sinigang. Pork Belly Sinigang. Now I'm hungry.

Should've told his wife no, spam eggs and rice is a legendary meal 🤣

Pork shoulder or neck bones for me!😍🤤

This video made me soooo hungry
