those god damn filipinos.

[cureOne]

Why are filipino parents so controlling? The good thing about this is that they are FREAKS in bed and pretty slutty for white boys like me, it's the only way they can get back at their overbearing parents.

[englandmj7]

So is this shit actually any good?

A pic SELEGNA posted made me want to try it. But candied garbanzo beans? Jesus.

What does it taste like? Too strange for a cracker to appreciate?

[Vitamian]

Filipinos, return yourself back to Spain.

This also applies to Indonesia and Holland.

halo-halo is amazing! It's shaved ice with milk, and then tons of sweet beans and coconut and jack fruit! holy shit, jack fruit. Fuck I want one of those right now. Best if you can make it homemade, but Goldylocks and other fil-am places make some pretty great ones in a pinch. Just avoid the ones with jello in it.

fuck I want some Jack Fruit.

[englandmj7]

It's the sweet beans that's getting me......what the hell are sweet beans? Those two words shouldn't go together.

[Vitamian]

Vietnam has a similar concoction.

its like water ice .. but better by 100 times .... u gotta mix it all up before u eat it though hence the name "halo halo" w/c roughly translates to "mix mix" in english

"Halo-halo (from "halo" = mix) is a favorite Filipino dessert or snack. It is basically a mixture of sweet preserved beans(red beans, chick peas), coconut meat (macapuno), jackfruit (langka), pounded dried rice (pinipig), sweet yam (ube), cream flan (leche flan), shreds of sweetened plantain (saba), filled with crushed ice, milk (or coconut milk) and topped with ice cream. The halo-halo basically is sweet, creamy, and a filling dessert"

my wife is a cracker, and she loves halo-halo. in fact, i think it is the only thing she ate while we visited the philippines besides goldilocks and that other one... uh... red ribbon? baked goods....

[lil brown brother]

red ribbon empanadas are the bomb....

[Pogi]

Red ribbon ube cake is ze best! I prefer taho over the halo halo, and omg I can't get enough of brazo de mercedes.

[ang_kangkong]

Anybody know the place in Chinatown here in NYC that sells taho? Went there once and couldn't go back.

[cuddlysheep]

i like to make halo halo in the summer time. do you put pinipig and ube on yours? or straight?

god damn if i don't love ube. especially the ube empanada mommy makes. i will eat ube until diarrhea forces me to stop.

ummm....

yeah.

pinipig is good, too, of course.

Back in the day when I was young, I'm not a kid anymore but some days i sit and wish I was a kid again...on vacation in Manila/Quezon City, an ice cream man would push his cart around and I'd always get the Pinipig Crunch.

Other food memories from my vacation:

Eating "fish balls" on a skewer from a guy w/ a push cart.

Fresh, hot Pan de Sal, straight from a bakery at like 5AM.

Some kind of small, round, pickled fruit you'd buy from a big ass jar. I can't remember the name although I think it started w/ an "m" (not mango).

Dried cuttle fish and Sprite

Bangos (sp?) aka milkfish, that has been marinated in vinegar* and then fried.

Langonisa made with black vinegar*

* Black vinegar that came from the Illocos. Super strong and tasty. Pops says you can't get it anywhere else.

[lil brown brother]

oh man dont get me started on those dirty ice cream.. i love the keso (cheese) flavored one ... the one with shredded cheese bits in it .. that and some hot pandesal .... one good ice cream sandwich....

Pan de sal with cheez wizz or any tube/jar of cheese spread is fking amazing for breakfast. Hell even Lady's Choice mayonnaise is yum with it.

More like come to NorCal. You'll find quite a few Filipino-owned and operated restaurants here. In Milpitas, a smaller town situated next to San Jose, I know of a few decent Filipino Mom and Pop bakeries, shops and restaurants. Or if you really want to go into Filipino overload, visit Daly City.

Btw, I'm not Filipino myself, but I grew up with Filipino friends, so I like to think I know what's up.

We've taken over Europe, North America and Australia. What else is there?

[almondcrush]
