June 25 (Friday) World Cuisines - Southeast Asian

If you happen to visit the Philippines, my beloved country, you’ll be amazed of the food dishes that you’ll eat here. Boasting aside, the archipelago is considered the “melting pot” in Asia because of the countless world cuisines you’ll encounter at posh restaurants in many key cities in the country. Countless influences contribute to this kind of wonders in the Food World here in my place.

If you like Asian food, from Japan, South Korea, China, Singapore, Malaysia, Indonesia, Thailand, Vietnam among others, you can choose many available fast food and restaurants frolicking many cities’ thoroughfares. It’s the same with American, African and European cuisines. Name it, order it…you’ll have it here.

Rice is the main staple food and corn is the second most planted crop aside from the former the whole year round. You can still see carabaos or water buffalos being used in cultivating farmlands.

Filipino streetfoods are always the attraction at the main thoroughfares of the cities. You just have to  be careful in choosing what to eat.

 

 

 

 

Bringing You A Taste Of The Philippines c/o dcefilmsusa

Travel Man's Filipino Food Diary

 1. 1971-1978 - The first seven years of my life...There were workers sleeping in our homestead (my father was the assistant or caretaker of the hacienda). Everyday there were sumptous meals being prepared in the kitchen by several household help. I first tasted pork adobo, chicken in coconut milk, pork sinigang, chopsuey, even exotic foods like cooked  non-poisonous snake and monitor lizards.

Every time I woke up in the morning, fried rice with tuyo or dried fish with estrellado or sunny side-up egg and carabao's fresh milk tickled my palate. I was a child full of curiosity, that even accidentally eaten the siling labuyo (hot small peppers) anticipating the it's red coloring means sweet flavor.Tomato enchiladas always accompany every Filipino breakfast. Longganisa and beef tapa were also an enticing morning treat to me.

Most of our dishes in Bicol, Philippines is normally cooked with coconut milk. During fiestas, my relatives will always come and help prepare festive dishes like kare-kare or beef oxtail  in peanut sauce, mechado, menudo, afritada, igado, and of course, dinuguan.

Being a child, then, lured you to eat most of the sweets, like cassava rock n'roll, leche flan, buko salad, maja blanca, bukayo or sweetened young coconut meat.

2. 1979-1988 - I was introduced to other Filipino dishes in school cafeterias and restaurants. I became acquainted with many kinds of noodle delicacies. Rice cakes or puto with pork blood or dinuguan compliments with each other. I was appreciating the influence of  Chinese cuisine in our cooking. Pancit bihon, pancit lomi, miswa, canton  are still my favorites. I learn to use chopstick when my friends frequent the local Chinese restaurant fusing Chinese cooking into Filipino dishes.

I will not forget my favorite snack in high school, banana cake  or nilupak and of course, halo-halo!

3 1988-1999 - College and Radio days... Pancit loglog and beef bulalo or kinalas were among my usual dish for breakfast and lunch. I balanced it with chopsuey or Chinese vegetable platter. Lechon or roasted pork, lumpia and other regional dishes were my next discovery then. I began tasting other Filipino dishes due to some parties and social functions I attended as a mediaman.

4. 2000 - onwards - Working in a Filipino-Chinese fastfood chain gave me an inspiration of pursuing my other interest, in cooking. I've trained and worked as food service crew and cook trainee in  Chowking (Edsa-Taft, Pasay City, Manila). After three months, I was called to be the resident cook at the seaman's center of my first shipping company (UNLAD Ship Manning & Management, Inc.). I continued learning about food purchasing, food preparation and victualling. Almost all the recipes we cooked were Filipino dishes. Until my first contract as a seafarer in 2001. I still cook Filipino dishes onboard ship. They prefer Lutong Bahay  or Filipino Country Cooking because it helps most of the Filipino seafarers to be at home inside the ship and eases the burden of homesickness.

Filipino Businesses promoting Filipino Cuisine Worldwide

Gaining international attention, wherever there are Filipino community is the food businesses promoting Filipino cuisine at the foreign land where they're working or living.

Successful stories on Goldilocks and Jollibee Food Corporation became the word of mouth for the past decades. These Filipino-owned businesses are open to franchising, where you can buy the business name and even sell their products with your own food outlet bearing their popular names.

In the United States of America, Filipino enterpreneurs put up food business catered to Filipinos, mostly, just like other minority groups in the nation.

Transient Filipino workers, like seafarers, are most happy to see that Filipino businessmen thrive in the key cities in the US, in Canada, even in Latin Americas, Africa and Asia, to mention a few. You do not only drop by and enjoy Filipino food but also mingle with  Filipino immigrants and migrant workers.
