Anon is a complete fucking idiot for not simply walking into a random Filipino’s house and politely asking for some homemade Filipino food. Idiot anon goes to the McD’s of the Philippines, and calls it a day. Filipinos have many insanely tasty dishes, and dumbfuck anon chooses garbage. Dinuguan (AKA chocolate meat) is my absolute favorite.
IUm, dinuguan is blood soup (root word is literally blood). I like it, but it has a pretty niche appeal, and you’ll be hard pressed to find someone that’ll serve it to a westerner.
But yeah, do yourself a favor and find a “carinderia” (or karinderya, depending on region) which roughly translates to “cafeteria” but is usually run by a sweet lady making as close as you’ll get to homemade cooking. Some dishes to try:
bicol express - spicy dish with coconut and pork
tokwa’t baboy - literally tofu and pork
adobo - classic chicken dish
Or branch out! It works kind of like Panda Express where you point to the dish(es) you want (called ulam) and they’ll add rice (I recommend asking for extra). It’s cheaper than any fast food chain and way better.

This sounds awesome! Wish we had places like this in the States

Yup. It’s like people who go to Starbucks when they tour Asia. removed, you’re on vacation, go see something new.
Imagine using an instance that censors ‘bitch’
huh?
“Bitch”, I assume. Fits the context, and I think it’s on lemmy.ml’s forbidden word list.
What a bitch-ass move.
Lemmy has certain words that are hard-censored. Like hard-coded into the actual code base. I think both the r and f slurs are among them.
Bitch, let’s see
Edit: well, this isn’t one of them
