FILIPINO SEAFOOD: We Love The Philippines!! PALAWAN FISH + DAVAO DURIAN in Manila! PINOY STREET FOOD

Dampa Seaside in Pasay, Manila!! SEAFOOD in The Philippines 2019!! Welcome back to Manila! We are teaming up with FoodieMommaPH (her channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC8hiiGm6GTyTVvO-LtZ2Xmw?sub_confirmation=1) to bring you an entire street food series in Manila, Philippines! We couldn’t resist a SEAFOOD feast, a specialty of the Philippines, so we will be showing where you can get some of the FRESHEST and most DELICIOUS seafood in Metro Manila! We head to Dampa Seaside (fish market), which sits right along Manila bay, to check out the fresh catches of the day. The market has everything from squids, to crabs, to exotic fish that had been caught from all around the country, like Palawan! Khee recommended certain types of fish and shellfish for the perfect Filipino seafood meal. We picked up crab (500 PHP / $9.69 USD for medium size), a beautiful red lapu lapu (type of Grouper fish) from Palawan (800 PHP / 15.50 USD), spires (molluscs) (45 PHP / 0.87 USD for a small plate), and squid (80 PHP / 1.55 USD for small plate). Overall, the market was small and quite clean. There weren’t many flies or bad smells like you can usually expect at these fish markets. A huge PLUS! Surrounding the wholesale area are restaurants who take your fresh seafood and cook it for you, either Filipino style or sometimes Chinese/Cantonese style. We chose to visit Papa Dann’s Grill Seafood restaurant because they allowed us to watch the cooking process. However, several locals had recommended to us to visit Aling Tonya’s Seafood Palutuan for better local flavours or Royal Kitchen for excellent Hong Kong style seafood. Information for all restaurants will be below. Papa Dann’s restaurant has all dishes on their menu with pictures to make ordering easy. They charged 1170 PHP ($22.68 USD) for the cooking fee and several bottles of water. The Filipino seafood dishes we ordered were: Chili garlic crab Sweet & sour lapu lapu with vegetables Squid adobo Spires in coconut cream Lapu lapu sinigang Next up, we head toward the entrance of the seafood market to find an exotic fruits stall. Khee had told us that she had NEVER tried durian before, and that she was saving it for when she could try Davao Durian. This stall had it so it was MANDATORY that we try it all together. FoodieMommaPH is officially a durian lover! We also tried an array of exotic fruits from all around the Philippines, such as sweet mangosteens, star apples, Java plums and even the bizarre cotton fruit (santol). There is no better way to end an incredible seafood meal than with exciting fruits with different flavours and textures. Want to visit too?
