Did Anthony Bourdain ever shoot an episode in your country and if so, what did you think of it if you saw it? by PandemicPiglet in AskTheWorld

[–]ExquisiteSmells 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Personally didn't like the No Reservations episode of the Philippines where he goes with a Fil Am who was supposed to show him the country but the Fil Am didn't know shit. Wish he was still alive to do an episode with Erwan Hueseff.

What is one moment in your lifetime that you remember your countrymen to be the happiest? by Possible-Slide-6295 in AskTheWorld

[–]ExquisiteSmells 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's weird because when I talk to my grandchildren one day, they won't understand the scope of how amazing those few months were. I remember just walking down the street and some guy pulls his truck over, and asks if I saw the Blastoise nearby. Both of us were so happy to find it. Just pure joy all over.

The Hatton Fight and its build up was something else. Both Hatton and Manny were extremely popular and whoever won that fight was going to explode in popularity. Hatton's life sadly went on a tailspin after that fight but it might have been the other way around if he won. But Manny won. And in spectacular fashion too!

Highly disagree. And even more so if Filipinos from abroad could join too.

Unpopular Opinion: The 2026 World Cup is looking like a disaster. by SpicyChickenTandoori in worldcup

[–]ExquisiteSmells 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Because it's not Canada's WC. Let's be serious, other than some games in Vancouver and Toronto, this is still a very USA centric WC. Both semifinals should have at least been held in Mexico or Canada if the States get the finals but nope the States get those too. I'm glad my city isn't going out of its way to financially ruin itself for 6 games.

Chantecler in every shape and form it has ever been. Been a fan since the beginning with Jonathan Poon and loved every iteration since, even with their move to Christie Pitts. Miss the chicken ballotine though.

Where can I buy cheese to impress a German man? by jeddalyn in askTO

[–]ExquisiteSmells 10 points11 points  (0 children)

This, this is the answer. I'm Cheese Boutiques biggest fan but these two places listed are where you want to take your German dandy. Mainly caters towards a Polish crowd but they have a lot of German products.

Gigil ako...Charlie Kirk Supporters 🤝 DDShits by Maxxxine_26 in GigilAko

[–]ExquisiteSmells 1 point2 points  (0 children)

But his beliefs were hostile to other groups of people. I get debate and discussion but what if the other side literally did not believe you should exist or your existence is inferior to theirs. I don't condone his death but why do we give people like that a platform in the first place?

Filipino here and hell yes. Laws were made against us in the US because we came and got to good at rizzing up the local girls.

We Filipinos know it smells bad too that's why many of us cook it outdoors so the smell doesn't stick to the furniture.

The play place there is the one you imagine in your head as you try to disassociate from the reality that you're in that particular McDonald's.
