In the philippines, street food is a way of life. From sizzling skewered meats to deep-fried delights, there’s no shortage of artery-clogging goodness to be found on every corner. And while most of it is delicious, some of it can be downright deadly.
For the ultimate street food adventure, look no further than the manila Heart Attack Tour by Best Ever food Review Show. This gut-busting tour takes you to some of the city’s most popular street food spots, where you’ll sample everything from grilled meats to fried insects.
Don’t worry, they’re not mandatory – but they are available if you’re feeling adventurous. And trust us, they’re not nearly as bad as they sound. In fact, many of them are actually quite delicious.
But beware, this tour is not for the faint of heart. With so much greasy goodness on offer, it’s easy to overdo it and end up with a massive heart attack. But if you can handle the heat, then this is one street food adventure you won’t want to miss.

high blood

[Music]
today we're gearing up for the ultimate
heart attack tour in the city of manila
bro sunny welcome back to manila from
viscous mystery soups teeming with
random body parts is that a practical
joke by god all the way to big heavy
deep fried pork sensations
that is so delicious it all starts here
our first dish is a killer
loamy made with thick fresh egg noodles
and a rich broth jam-packed with heavy
toppings this is the loamy you eat if
you lose your job get dumped and find
out you're adopted all on the same day
today i am back in the capital and i'm
here to try a type of food i've never
heard this name before how do you
describe it it's called
batok first chopped onions and garlic
are added to a wok with cooking oil
basically it just means food that makes
your high blood pressure high salty
soupy greasy fried fried everything with
cholesterol is good then the pork broth
season it with soy sauce secret spices
and black pepper
toss in the signature loamy egg noodles
add some coconut milk then an egg and
mix until it becomes thick
with the foundation prepped it's time
for the toppings roasted pork lumpia or
fried spring rolls liver ground pork
chinese geekian and fried garlic this is
where a reasonable man would stop but no
how about fish balls hard-boiled eggs
and finally the chicharron
this bowl of unhinged excess belongs to
andy's famous potongus lomi and bulello
it's 90 degrees it's very humid and
there's nothing i would rather do than
stick my whole face in this huge heaping
heavy pot of noodles and other assorted
varieties of things i think we should
start with the spring roll
[Music]
it's meaty and crispy it's also soaked
up all this broth that's really good
this is a pork belly
whoa that's really funny but that is
delicious what do you think is more
special about this the toppings or
what's inside i think the most important
thing is the egg noodles must be fresh
the broth must be good also the toppings
are just additional but the signature
for the toppings is the kiki meet my
eating sherpa for today chewie a young
filipino who documents the deepest local
eats in each corner of the philippines
all right let's try it out
i love it like chewy almost like kind of
spongy flavor if you're eating raw meat
it's incomplete without adding onions
and soy sauce we've got the onions in
there the soy sauce i'm gonna unearth
and bring up the noodles i know those
are probably my top three of all types
of noodles the texture oh they just have
some good white
yeah
no more like how they're chewy
i failed i failed dude you were so good
at this how did you do that i trained
with instant noodles even the noodles
are so hot at this point they've gotten
quite soft but they're totally just
saturated in that super savory salty
broth and also the onions it's adding a
little bit of sweet element this is you
said a must for any low meat it is a
liver i want to build up to this bite
right here some liver some of the
noodles i do have some onions holding on
for dear life
amazing this is a great start today is
all about the over-the-top very
indulgent very porky oily greasy fried
filipino food and sweaty yeah we got to
sweat some of this salt out and
replenish with more water and more food
next on our hit list of dangerous diners
this place serving up braised body parts
you won't find just anywhere sir how are
you doing very excited to be here the
name of the food is what paris oh
parrots like in france
paris is basically a filipino braised
beef stew usually served with garlic
fried rice compared to other filipino
dishes what makes this stand out
it's the food for the mass from rich
people from drivers etc etc in each
corner there's paris here in the
philippines and they're all a little bit
different yeah they have their own style
paris is so much more than just braised
beef and bones first every beef cut you
can imagine is tossed into a huge pot
don't believe me let's play a little
game i want to play a little game called
guess that organ oh i love that first
organ here i'm gonna say this is a
stomach right right right right right
okay what's this see i got one of those
and it's working overtime because of all
the jack daniels i drink that my friend
is a liver yeah all right oh you're good
man what is that i have no idea what
that is called it's near the rectum area
can i say rectum yeah you can rectum
ah yes but of course it's
ringworm i don't know that uh but that's
too long to be uh is that it
[Music]
yeah come on it's looking at me put it
down
so you guys really eat everything
there's nothing that goes to waste those
cow parts are cooked for five hours
before they add in mega hits of flavor
onions garlic celery green chilies
ginger pepper and salt boil everything
together for one more hour and dig in
because this is constantly on the heat
it's evaporating it gets more condensed
and he puts in this white liquid is that
milk the secret to this pot of pares is
to make the broth last as long as the
meat does they just call it milk but
it's not milk so you may catch the owner
dumping in some more special broth jugs
of soy sauce and secret milk which i'm
pretty sure is just cornstarch so it's
kind of a thickening agent yeah
upon serving cut all the ingredients
into smaller pieces assemble in a bowl
and finally add in that salty viscous
broth
in peak season they can cook up to 150
pounds of off cuts and cow parts
boom this is
i think we should try that soupy soup
first
oh that's quite satisfying there's so
many flavors the soy sauce the garlic
the beef stock there's like a hint of
gaminess in there but i like it all
right let's try all this beef
it's really tender right it's such an
interesting combination of one he's
working all morning kind of really
crafting this meat with a love and then
when he needs more broth he just dumps
an industrial sized container of soy
sauce inside so it's this mixture of
fast and slow to make this work apart is
not complete with the sides you have to
add more garlic some calamansi and leeks
also a spicy chili see how much diarrhea
do i want i want this much diarrhea so
this is garlic rice i want to try it
alone see how it tastes
super tasty but we don't eat it like
that we put the soup on top soup and
meat a little bit of liver a little bit
of heart let it soak up that beautiful
sauce we got the broth heart liver the
rice everything together let's try it
out
oh yeah just a complete package
so rice cuts down some of the intensity
and saltiness from the soup that's why
the filipino community love paris it's
really flavorful it's really cheap it's
very accessible also there are testicles
in here but he chopped them so tiny can
you see this one ah right there have you
had this before yeah i love balls
fantastic i
agree actually
[Music]
not bad what helps is everything in the
bowl tastes the same you're just getting
like different textures right let's find
that peanuts look at this oh wow it's
like a giant scallop it's really big
this bowl could have played for the nba
wow it's been so cooked so braised it's
become kind of gummy to me that didn't
even taste like a penis have you tasted
it i mean
like in hong kong okay
at a restaurant i gotta say i'm very
impressed it does definitely feel like a
bit of an indulgence but then lots of
meat protein it's not just a bunch of
fried stuff when you mix it with the
rice it's quite delicious pares paris
our next savory salt bomb comes from
here a stall inside a humble car and
area that's delivering radiant noodles
guaranteed to spike your dopamine so
high you'll crash into a days long
depression right after eating for a
second it looked healthy when it was
just noodles and like a handful of green
stuff and then she doused it with this
bright orange nuclear sauce this broth
base is prepared with pork bones salt
pepper fried garlic msg and anato oil
which explains the bright orange color
to thicken the broth cornstarch and eggs
let's try it just the sauce
i like it it is super salty it's like
triple x rated salt now to bring all the
elements together first thin rice
noodles then a dump trunk of flavors
fish sauce garlic sauce pepper msg and
crushed chicharron
top that with a natto fried tofu
homemade adobo squid a hard-boiled egg
and finally that thick glow-in-the-dark
orange gravy
garnish with homemade chicharron and
that is the same exact dish you'd get if
you came here 80 years ago
[Music]
super greasy they're taking a shot of
oil to balance all this here
we have this oh look at that balance one
gram of vitamin c let's just mix it this
is like the calling card for filipino
street food is this blaze orange color
so i've got some noodles here i've got a
little bit of the crispy skin let's go
for it let's go for it
oh man i need a giant mountain dew oh is
this the mountain dew
[Music]
oh yes room temperature mountain dew
balance i gotta say very satisfying and
this is something you find all over the
philippines oh yeah all over the
philippines we have different kinds of
alabama miss mayeth archaea's stall
bovet and maya pastora is the name is
scrunched between two others in a center
packed with eating options this is
called a carinderia the term simply
means a small roadside restaurant that
serves up local and traditional
home-cooked food it's so popular among
locals because it brings them back to
the flavors of their childhood
wash it down
[Music]
we have one more epic food remaining
let's go somehow after all this salt
cholesterol and pure joy our hearts
continue to tick
our next stop might just change that
here they're deep fry entire portions of
pig bringing together the perfect
trifecta of meat fat and crunch men
what's a good like welcoming in the
local language
[Music]
since 1972 miss judy ann francisco and
her family have been serving up a dish
known as crispy pata a pork lover's
dream crunchy pork skin enclosing savory
tender meat it all starts with the
potato what does pata mean the part is
the front leg of a pork the pork chops
are pre-cooked boiled for three to five
hours with celery onion garlic bay
leaves salt and pepper this will soften
the meat and break down the fat what
i've heard is that in the philippines
people don't usually use the back legs
for the pot is that because that's where
the pee happens
no the behind one there are more on fats
after the legs rest for one hour they're
ready to take the plunge unlike the
front legs they are more on the meaty
part a healthy 20 minutes fully
submerged in oil until it turns a
tempting shade of golden brown so this
is healthier i just hope it won't
increase your blood pressure we are
actually trying to get it through the
roof i can provide the medicine
for you what is the secret behind the
perfect crispy potato for me it's our
secret for sure it must be kept secret
okay when the pata is crispy it's sliced
and topped with their super freaking
secret glaze that they won't disclose to
me or any other food expert okay i
understand the secret must remain a
secret but if you're a customer what are
you looking for in the perfect crispy
potato what they're looking for us is
the crispiness and the juiciness oh
it sounds like dessert to me can we put
a candle in the middle
take a look i think i've got the left
foot you've got the right foot well this
is such a big crispy patasani so how
many people would you usually share this
with well maybe around four to five we
also have a couple of foods to accompany
this is portung a lima sauce an omelette
cooked with crab meat
i tasted crab there's an egg of course
but then just this sweet brown sauce
around it would you consider that
would you consider that for topanto
definitely no no no this is just an egg
what about this oh it's not about the
platform no oh this is basically a salad
this is punsit bihor a mix of glass
noodles and egg noodles cooked with pork
and veggies you have to put the
calamansi you have a little acidity and
then maybe a little mix my last healthy
food before the parts
super peppery delicious tender thin
noodles is very nice i now playing
around with the side dishes here we have
the main star of the day the crispy
pasta shall we try the skin yeah
this is nice kind of sweet yeah a little
sweet oh it's a really good cake the
under part of the skin is almost sticky
so it's kind of sticky on one side
crunchy and sweet on the other side that
is so delicious actually just the first
crispy part i've seen that they have
pickles also
whoa i mean it makes sense you want
something a little acidic vinegary and
sweet to go something so heavy look at
this dude this is like eating chicken
look at this big soft piece this thing
is still steaming hot i cannot wait
let's go for it cheers
my gosh it is so soft tender juicy hot
and steamy should not be for children
let's do some anatomy so that's like the
forearm the wrist and then that is like
kind of the hand right there but look i
just pulled the foot off like it was
nothing i bet i could split this in half
yes so all those parts have melted down
everything between the joints when it
was boiling for three to four hours
that's when all this really got super
soft i mean take a look at that all that
fat is rendered down beautifully mmm
what perfect oh no the piglets is superb
the sweet glaze is where it's at i wish
there was like a bowl of honey here we
can just keep dipping it in
to me of everything we've eaten today by
far the most satisfying
how do we know if we were successful in
our puerto patto mission today
it's just a hypothetical term from
filipinos but anything that is fatty and
greasy and i think we did all of that
with different aspects different flavors
different stories i'm glad that you
enjoy all of the
food here in manila i want to say to you
my man thank you very much sunny my
pleasure is made
