NOT filipino Christmas food though. Lol. Seriously bro, you need to spend more Christmases in the 🇵🇭.
British Christmas dinner is delicious 😋 it don't need spices which alot of other countries moan at no everything needs to have spices in taste the food all you need salt pepper gravy delicious my favourite bit is roast potatoes crunchy
nice try but thats not what filipinos food for christmas eve haha.
Adobo in christmas day😂 ok
My Croatian in-laws also have lasagna on Christmas!
The "Filipino" guy is a caricature of what people think Filipinos eat on Christmas.
Where's the lumpia? Afritada? Caldereta? Sisig? Giniling??????
Dumbest pick for a filipino xmas cousine.
I'm just wondering, how can you have any pudding if you don't have meat? I'm American and my family's Christmas meal is Prime Rib and of course Yorkshire Pudding, so I genuinely don't understand how the pudding was made.
Adobo hinahanda nyo sa pasko? Pinoy ka ba talaga amf
We often have lasagna for Christmas Eve supper. Christmas day has to be turkey with stuffing and mashed potatoes with gravy. Rolls, green bean casserole, lefse, peas, homemade strawberry jam, and meatballs.
He wants represetation of Philippines so he made his own version 😂😂😂
This is not a Christmas dish
No bro. Chicken adobo for christmas?! Come one!!! Everyone knows that Lechon is the star!
It's fine for me. Every individual has own preference. Like Ray style with okra which unusual. Don't worry brother Ray, you living outside that's why. But hey, you got a comeback from your Mango Float 👍
Nah bro! That's a shame! Adobo is NEVER a Christmas Meal. It's an everyday meal. You should've introduced them to Lechon, Filipino spaghetti, Jollibee fried chicken, Baked Mussels, Macaroni Salad, Queso de bola, Ham and Rice
Since WHEN okra became a part of FILIPINO CHRISTMAS dinner??? Seriously???
I love adobo but it wouldn't be my choice for a Christmas meal. But then again, since you didn't grow up in the Philippines, maybe your family didn't prepare the typical Christmas spread. As you said, you normally ate whatever your mum prepared, maybe she prepared adobo most of the time for Christmas and so it's what comes to mind when you think of a Christmas dinner?
Only once have I seen a sadder lasagna than that one, and it was at a mountain restaurant. I can't judge the one in the video, but the one in the restaurant was incredibly good (I've always been quite picky about food, to be honest). Too bad they gave me a tiny piece and I couldn't ask for a second because they'd gobbled it all up. 😂
My mom always makes lasagna and cannelloni for Christmas. This year, I skipped lasagna, but I had to eat cannelloni for three days straight, and they were disgustingly salty. One of the worst Christmases of my life. 💔😢
It's disappointing. For you to choose adobo. A pale adobo at that. This is a 500 pesos Noche Buena 😂😂. He should have just made humba or something just not adobo.
Let them try buwad nokos or buwad danggit 😅😅😅
Chicken adobo??? No crispy pata chicharon bulaklak or litson
Chicken adobo with coconut milk? What’s that? I wouldn’t change an authetic Filipino adobo recipe
>christmas dish
>adobo
>okra
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
That adobo is BOOOO huhuhu
Once again provide Italian knows nothing about food😅
As someone who loves Filipino food. Eaten my fair share of it and made it…. what is this adobo? 😭😭
I'm so sorry. I admit he said HIS VERSION so I respect that. I uh… is he sure that is indeed adobo? 😮
The english meal looks sooooo good. In fact, all of them look like they smell amazing and taste delicious 😋
Ironically, lasagna is the nearest thing here that qualifies as a Filipino Christmas dinner.
The sauce is dry
HAHAHAHA
Adobo is more of an everyday meal because it’s easy to cook and uses simple ingredients. Well yeah you can serve it during Christmas, but it’s definitely not the main dish.
Adobo with okra?😮
I dont know where you are located,but as a filipino,this is not the usual christmas filipino food.
Adobo ? With okra?? Alalalaalalalalal
Rage bait for views 😂
Emily 😍🥵 Marry me! 🙏🏻
brah the Philippines rep. could just prepared letchon paksiw… that's more close to Christmas dinner
>british christmas dinner
>chicken
Im sorry have you literally lost your mind?
The christmas dinner meat is turkey and ham. You havent made a british christmas dinner, you have literally just made a dinner.
Chiken adobo for Christmas😢 are you okay??? I would accept the pancit with lumpia
Better go back to Philippines
For Christmas, us Filipinos would have lechon or caldereta, maybe kare kare
Adobo for Christmas hahahah with okra making it worse!!!!!
🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲
Omg gravy is not a luxury. I need loads of gravy in my dinner.
