Sassa Gurl and Erwan Mukbang and Q&A

I will be doing my very first mukbang. I'm going to be eating lots of different dishes today, but I think I need someone to help me out. So I'm just waiting on my guest to get here. Pak, hello! Welcome, welcome. You're crazy. Oh my God, your husband is still in Capricorn. Bye already. I'm sorry. Go ahead. That's your TF. MS. So Sasa and I are here today to celebrate the launch of GrabFood Indie Eats. That's why we got these really cool tumblers over here. And I love the idea of promoting small but quality merchants. I mean, you spent some time, I'm sure, on GrabFood. Of course, I've been looking for a lot of GrabFood. Mostly because I don't go out much. So I'm more into GrabFood. And like with everything, usually, you know, there's always rating systems and stars and everything that we do nowadays. There's always a review. You always rely on other people's comments and reviews. So it makes it hard for these really small entrepreneurs and small food businesses to get discovered by everyone. So I don't know about you. Just two sentences in one sentence. It's kind of hard to process what you're saying. Just kidding. So when I'm on the app, sometimes I'll just order what's popular. And I don't spend enough time to choose something that's a bit, maybe, undiscovered or not known. That's true. Because usually, we'll just go with what we're already familiar with, right? We need to explore. Oh my God, my Nakshi. For sure, you'll be able to explore your aura. And also your food, right? There's so many words there that I did not understand. I'm sorry. So Nakshi. Nakshit. That's what my kids call it. Nakshi. Nakshit. Yes. I like that. I'm sorry. Don't be jealous. Oh my God. So we're here today, just like I'm discovering new lingo. We're here today to discover these really great quality merchants from GrabFood. There's going to be a banner on GrabFood called GrabFood Indeed. So you can click through and you can actually check all the different merchants that they have in there. And Sasa and I are here today to try a couple of them. Let's go. So you hungry? Yes. Let's go. I've been waiting for this for a while. Hello. I was really hungry for this. Panaderia Pantoja started as a backyard bakery in the 50s. From humble beginnings in Batangas, they've grown into a well-loved business. We ordered their cheese rolls and their famous yema cake to start the day. Okay. I think our Grab driver is here. Our first food is from... You're just sitting there eating. You're surprising me. Hello. We're starting with snacks. This is awesome. There's even a logo. This is crazy. I kind of want this logo. So this is Panaderia Pantoja. Since 1950. So we have cheese rolls. And... It looks like leche flan. It's like a leche flan cake. No. It's like a cheesecake. Cheers. Okay. I'll do it. This looks really good. Have you done food reviews before? I'll ask first. You're making me crazy. Yes. I've done a food review before. But it's not that good. Okay. Because I don't have a taste for it. It's not good. Not bad. Explain it to the good people. Not bad. It's really not bad. It's free. You should try it. It's good. So the sponge cake is super soft. And there's like a nice, not too sweet caramel filling right in the middle. And then that complemented with kind of like the saltiness you get from the cheese, which is a very typical Filipino flavor, which I absolutely love. This is actually really... I've never tried this. In fairness, there's a lot of food here in Graback. I'm experimenting with the grinder. I got married before Grindr was launched. Really? Yeah. So I've never tried Grindr. I've never tried Tinder. I've never tried any of those dating apps. Maybe you're dating Omegle. Next, these are cheese rolls. Yeah, there's a lot more coming. So just keep your appetite. Super fluffy. Yes. So these are questions we ask people what they would be interested to learn from you. How were you discovered on TikTok? So I've watched your TikTok, Ann's watched your TikTok, and we really enjoy what you do. I think a lot of people don't actually realize how difficult that is, like skits. There's a lot of writing involved, timing, the editing. So I really do appreciate what you do. I think it's really cool. Thank you. And thank you to Madam Ann. Hello. Yes, I was discovered on TikTok during the early pandemic. Okay. Because my skits were more on high school. But of course, there's no face-to-face class. So what happened was I really reminisced about the high school drama, the scenes like that, the waiting outside. Did you wait outside? Me? Yes. Yes, one school in particular. I'm not going to name the school. It was ****. It was **** to wait outside. ****. Because who were you fighting back then? Nothing, I was waiting for girls. What is that? I thought you were fighting for girls. That's crazy. A little eatery in the busy metro with lots of fun and creative lugaws to sell. You can find some gyoza and shumai, top ones, being served street side. But if you really want something special, try their Busog-Lusog Lugaw with all the trimmings. I think our lugaw is here. I really bet that it's lugaw. Let's go. Carry. There's so much inside. So this is called the Busog-Lusog Lugaw. And it really is Busog-Lusog. You want calamansi? Yes, go. I feel like a lot of people go when they order food at home, it's like they're ordering most of the time foreign food. You know what I mean? That's true. Burgers and stuff like that. But people forget that on GrabFood, you have really amazing Filipino food as well. And these are really small entrepreneurs with really amazing food. And lugaw is probably one of my favorite things to eat. Yes, but it's also very accessible. Correct. Right? What I think is cool here is that we have lugaw with so many different types of things going on. I think there's pork. I think this is tripe. How do you say tripe? Twalya. Twalya, I know twalya. There's a lot, in fairness. It's really full at any moment. Maybe there's coconut milk inside. This lugaw is really good, in fairness. Because the lugaw that I'm looking at is really just plain lugaw. Oh, just the chicken? Yes. Sometimes, it doesn't even have a shape. Okay, next question. I like this one. If you were a food, what ulam would you be and why? Ulam? Yeah. Oh my God. I want to be sinigang. Why? Because you're... It's sour. I'm kidding. No, and what they call it here is sinigang. It's really my favorite. The headsets in the computer shop also smell like sinigang. Okay, are you ready for the next dish? Yes. I think you'll like the next one. What is it? Sisig. This sisig is more of a fusion of the beloved pork dish with a tokwat baboy, giving you a crunchy, chewy, and umami experience that you'll just want to keep eating. I've been excited for this. I think it just arrived. Oh my God. Here it is. It looks so appetizing. Sebkin Sisigan. Wow. This is my favorite because I'm a drunkard. I mean, this is very untraditional. Correct. But it doesn't mean it's a bad thing. I love people who take, or who experience, who experiment. Sorry, I can't speak English anymore. It's okay. You know that we can explore. Try it first. Okay. There's a lot of spice there. What I love is they have some really crunchy pieces of pork in there. It's so good. With the crunchy tofu that's soft inside. Lots of chili. Do you usually eat sisig with rice or can you eat it alone? Usually, I only eat sisig because it's always served with drinks. Correct. So you just cut it with whatever. That's the only time I eat sisig, when it's served with drinks. What do you usually drink? White Castle. Yes. That's right. Congratulations on that. Thank you. I thought that was really cool. Did you see that? When you did it, did you understand what you were doing? Like in terms of the effect it would have and the impact it would have for people who might look up to you? I think, at first, I posted that. I posted why no one endorsed the drinks of gay people. Because we're the ones who make people drink. I didn't know that. Have you ever been drunk by a gay person? Not yet. Later, I will. Order it on Grab. Just kidding. After a year, White Castle contested. Then, I joined. Then, when I joined, they chose me. Ending, my dream came true. So, yes. Maybe, I didn't expect that you would be that successful. Because, of course, I'm just a micro-influencer. You can't... Most of the gays don't get endorsements. Yeah, it was very rare. Right? Very rare. Now, it's like... Although, there are some now. But, for those masculine brands, there are gays who can join. LGBT. All of them. And, if you get my calendar, you'll see it. You're a straight man. You'll think, I hope it's 2023. And, it's also effective. Because, if you drink White Castle, you'll look better in the picture. It took a while for me to understand that. And then, I was just like, oh, okay, now I understand what she's saying. Right? What do you think is the biggest highlight of your vlogging career? Me? Yes. I think this. This would be it. Ah! And, you're one of the first. So, when we started, people didn't really think or take us seriously. They thought, oh, these are just kids with cameras on the internet. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Just kidding. And, just why this is so important to me is because, over the years, we've been becoming professional on our side and doing our own thing. And, no one ever really realizes the work that we put in. And, this is a physical manifestation of 10 years of experience. Yes. Congratulations. Mango Series has the goods. We ordered their hyped up scramble where the banana extract is mixed in with milk powder, marshmallows, and crushed Oreos, and obviously, lots of crushed ice. If that's not enough, try their pure mango. A fresh mango shake with pearls, vanilla ice cream, and mango chunks. You ready for something sweet? Yes! Enough with the sourness. Ah! So cute! My gosh. An awesome selection of, I believe these are scrambles. Yes. And, this is kind of like a mango shake. Cute! The scramble has a new scene. The ice cream is good. And, in the bottom here, we have... Oh, there's pinipig. Oh, what is this? Marshmallow. Mashala. And, there's like... Oh, there's one at the bottom. At the bottom. Oh, my gosh. It's already very milky. It's already high-end. Or, maybe this is just for you. I think these are the scrambles that pass through your subdivision. But, this for me is probably one of the most surprising ones we had today. Did you ever think you could go and grab food and order a scramble? No. Right? One, it's hard when I'm walking around. You can't find a scramble vendor. You'll find like a guy that's cutting coconuts or selling mangoes. But, you'll never really see a scramble vendor that often. So, this one's like a mango supreme. I really like this one. Pretty sure this is probably what they're known for the most. And, it tastes like a delicious mango shake. And, mango shakes always remind me of the beach. Sasa, thank you very much for coming here today. You're welcome. I think it was really cool to get to know you, to get to talk to you a little bit. If you guys don't know who she is, please make sure to check out her TikTok. It's really funny, really well-produced, really well-written. So, I wish you all the best with that. So, thank you very much. Thank you very much. I'm really full here. Actually, I'm already full with you. I think what today proved is that you should be open to new ideas and exploring. And, I think that's what GrabFood Indie Eats is all about. It's going on the app, looking at all the merchants that have been vetted for their quality and just for how tasty they are and how great the food is. And, finding things that you never thought would actually be on GrabFood. And, this list just helps you kind of explore a little bit more and discover things that you might really enjoy eating. So, today, go to your GrabFood app and look through all the merchants and explore and try something different. Correct. And, you won't know what you really like and what you really want if you don't explore, right? Exactly. Thanks, guys, for watching. I'll see you in the next video. Bye! See ya!
