Welcome to Chinesepod Pinoys！

ini-approve mo na ang membership ko, ha!

I'll make sure to bring a stock of dried mangos and coffee (for amber and clay) if I go to Shanghai this October! :)

Apakabar ?

Hey Bill, that line sounds strangely familiar. Hmmm... Hahahaha :)

chillosk (Mickey):

I owe alot to you and Kalyespeak for getting my Tagalog going again.  My level is dismal, but I have a lot of fun with it. 

Billm: You don't look taba to me.:) Galing mo na magsalita ng Filipino,ha! Lupet! ( You can now speak good Filipino! Cool!)

JP: Yay! Nakasali ka!

Chillosk: Could you be a mod here? Please :D? Hindi ko kaya kase mabaho ang kilikili ko eh. haha. :D

Glad you're enjoying it Bill! Although we haven't uploaded anything in a loooong time. :(

Hitokiri, hahaha, joderance lang yan... or tawas :P

What do I have to do? I'm game. :) Might be busy lang because of law school. 忙死了！

Cge. thanks :) Just look if the posts has any kagaguhan. :)

Yay, member na ako ng grupong pinoyz! 

Clay was so hoping that his membership would get approved before mine.  May gad, Clay, it's not a race naman!   Just be tenkpul! 

So the other day I went with Adi, Catherine from ItalianPod, and Christela and Amaury from FrenchPod to TheSpot here in 上海 to celebrate Philippine Independence Day... All you can eat Filipino buffet.

There was adobong manok (you could tell the cook was Chinese, because they chopped the chicken into typical Chinese chopstick-sized pieces), lumpia shanghai, salted egg, pinakbet (ayoko naman ang ampalaya e) a very delicious sinigang and some kaldereta.

Gustong gusto naman ni Christela ang kaldereta ano... she went back four times!  I taught her the word "matakaw" and said that it's a good thing.... healthy appetite.... ;) 

Next time I go to Manila, we're definitely going to have a cPod meetup, ha!

JP: Astig! Was there Dinuguan as well? It's made of pig's blood. And I thought it was gravy. hehe

Kaldereta and Sinigang na Baboy are like one of my most favorite Filipino dishes.

Sayang, dapat may Halo-halo. :)

Can I say, "Grabe, ang taba ko na!"?

chillosk: nakalagay na sa group mod: chillosk:)

Hehe: Clay's Pinoy!!!

I've always said that Filipino is an open-enrollment ethnicity.  Last fall Adriana was feeling bad that there were no other Colombians to hang out with, so Eileen and I told her that she could always be Filipino, too!  Then we went to Wagas and ate salads.

Hoy, 要使这里在上海有一家菲律宾菜的饭店，你们都告诉我吧！ Besides The Spot, the only filipino food I've eaten lately is the stuff I make myself!  And of course I was never taught to cook for one, so I'm getting mataba again!

This week I'll go eat Indonesian food with Adi, tenks gad, the Indonesians know how to eat their rice with a spoon, just like us!

hitokiri,

I can only claim honorary Pinoy status.  I'll need my wife to translate.  Hopefully, I'll start to pick some of it up.

My wife makes most of the dishes mentioned, so I'm probably eating more Filipino food than JP.  And I did watch Wowowee, and the other show with the "itak tak mo" song last weekend.

Wowoweeeeee Bill! Hahaha! Been hooked on TFC huh??

My friend told me that the Pinoy restaurant's prices were stupidly expensive. If the price of the dish here at home was P200, the restaurant would still sell it at 200, but RMB200! Crazy... we never went there though.

JP, 你吃过"sisig"?很好吃！

hmm.. you can probably get adidas in China, 是蜂胶（fengjiao, phoenix feet, or chicken feet. not sure about the characters but got that from the Hungry Traveller in HK episode). :)

Naku, there's all kinds of adidas all over here, but no dinuguan, but I don't eat those.  I don't eat pinakbet, either, even though I know how to pronounce it the ilokano way! 

There's no sisig here, unfortunately, and there's no chicharron.  Hmph!  Next time I go to Manila, I will load up on chicharron and dried mango.

I forgot to mention there was really good leche flan at the Spot.  All you can eat lecheplan = high cholesterol and diabetes!  Delicious!

crisgee,

Thanks for reminding me of the name of the show.  I think I can do the moves.

Love the dancers on Eat Bulaga.

JP, they served Filipino food in The Spot? Hahaha, never have I imagined that they'll serve adobo and kaldereta there. And classic, lumpiang shanghai in Shanghai. Haha.

I used to make do with the kaldereta-like dish in the Brazilian Barbque in Jing'an before. It was good, but not pinoy good.

听说上海里有菲律宾的饭馆,但是我朋友告诉我价格很贵.and it wasn't authentic (尊重对吧?).

Yeah, let's set up a Cpod meetup when you come here! :)

Poor Clay, you're an honorary Pinoy now. Hahaha. 现在你是菲律宾人，？

Hitokiri, aight, so do I have to like click anything to be a mod or apply? Or tambay lang ako dito? :P
