We started our crazy Filipino street food tour in Zamboanga City, Philippines, trying satti, a popular breakfast dish. Satti is super spicy and flavourful, a great way to start the day. Next door we found the popular street food, lokot lokot.
We continued our crazy Filipino street food tour trying papaitan. Papaitan kambing is a bitter goat stew. Here in Zamboanga their papaitan is less bitter and super tasty, full of flavour and even creamy peanut butter! To cool off on our Filipino street food tour tasting some of the best street food in the Philippines, we got a mango graham, delicious and cool.
We finished our Filipino food tour tasting the rare curacha deep sea crab. Curacha is a rare deep sea crab found in the waters surrounding Zamboanga. When you’re here you must try curacha at Alavarโs, they do this rare deep sea crab up right! The taste and flavour of their sauce on the rare curacha deep sea crab is truly something else.
We hope you enjoy our crazy Filipino street food tour in Zamboanga City, Philippines tasting the rare curacha deep sea crab and papaitan. Stay tuned next week for more street food in the Philippines!

We are goat raising.we have almost 100 heads of imported goat.we only started 30heads only and now they are increasing.
We sell goat meat
Keep going u both are enjoying your life ๐๐๐
Alavar sacue is the best. I always buy their crabs and prawns whenever I go to Salcedo Saturday Market where they have a booth there.
this should be illegal, people are gonna gain weight just by watching you two.๐คค๐คค
I could not wait to reserve a table there once Iโve got the chance to visit Zamboanga again..
How lucky you two. I'm Filipino but I haven't been to Zamboanga, that Alavar resto is well known since long time ago for their curacha crabs and other seafoods. Enjoy!
She sounds like a California blonde ๐
โคโคโคโค
Oh, that crab and crab fat…. ๐ซ
There's a Filipino phrase "putok batok". It's refers to feeling a sort of sickness / dizziness afer indulging in high cholesterol food like lechon or that crab fat.
I hope you two just felt happy, and not "putok batok", after all that food. ๐
Alavar Restaurant is legendary. Buen provecho!.
I thought u guys left d Philippines by now
that crab looks so delicious, the sauce looks so good.
๐ฅฐ๐ฅฐ๐ฅฐ
What an awesome video! The food all looked exceptionally delicious ๐! What an experience at the restaurant with the Curacha crab and Miguel's chicken and sauce! Such wonderful hospitality ๐๐!
Not so sure about the bitter goat stew,though๐!
Sana linisin muna grill ๐ฎ๐ฎ
Afiyet olsun.
The Papaitan is called Papait in that city. It is not bitter at all. Because the Zamboanga version is clean. Papaitan in other city is a bit vile. Great video.
Doesn't it feel good to do such a nice job?.

Amazing video guys!! Those satti soaked up in that delicious gravy were to die for. Not to mention the illegal seafood feast. The sauce they pour on top I believe tastes like nothing else weโve ever tried before. Thank you so much for sharing your street food adventures with us โค
I have sampled Zambo street food and curacha, it is exotic food and super sarap! You wo't regret it.
You come Viet Nฤm
Hoping for Iloilo City vlog soon!
I am certain that I've seen the two of you in my city, one afternoon and thought to myself "woah, international vloggers?" that was when you were about to ride on a tricycle/rickshaw. Hope u had a good time.
Pepper spice ๐ฎ๐ฎ
Herb moment hahaaa
๐Yum
Ben likes how youโre smiling at him in the video ๐คฃ
That guy is right, the audience is very hungry.
Damn does that chicken sauce ship to Canada?
