00:00 Even in other countries, the Filipinos are very aware of this.
00:04 Some even make a gimmick that looks cool at any time.
00:08 Whether it's America, Australia or Italy,
00:11 the Filipino Halo-Halo is really popular worldwide.
00:14 In Las Vegas, Nevada, there's a restaurant that serves Halo-Halo
00:24 that's hot and cold.
00:26 It's literally a flaming hot because the top part of the Halo-Halo
00:30 is being cooked.
00:32 I was wondering how they could talk about Halo-Halo to people.
00:38 How could they be wowed?
00:41 Using a unique liquid, they pour it on top of the Halo-Halo
00:46 and then serve it.
00:47 In 2013, Chef Alex and Josie opened their restaurant.
00:52 Until now, Filipinos and Paraguayans come here to eat.
00:57 We Filipinos are fond of variety.
00:59 We want to taste everything.
01:01 Halo-Halo is like a mix of everything.
01:04 This iconic Filipino restaurant is also famous in the United States.
01:10 Their Halo-Halo has a special milky crust ice.
01:14 It's summer in the USA, so their Halo-Halo is really popular.
01:18 Because it's a representation of specialties of Filipino desserts,
01:23 it's very basic.
01:26 It's an institution item for us.
01:28 So, of course, it's a must that we have to promote that
01:31 even here in the US.
01:32 The basic ingredients are common to us,
01:36 but for non-Filipinos, it's new to them.
01:40 Because of its uniqueness,
01:41 and we know that it's really delicious,
01:44 they like it easily.
01:46 They pick it up easily.
01:48 Aside from Halo-Halo,
01:49 you can also taste their other versions of Palamig,
01:51 like Ube Makapuno, Buko Pandan, Mais, and Saging Con Hielo.
01:56 Let's go to Down Under, Australia.
02:01 This colorful food truck serves Halo-Halo with classic dishes.
02:06 And the topping is the most delicious, soft-serve ice cream.
02:11 Here in Sydney alone,
02:13 there are also a lot of Filipino restaurants.
02:17 But most of them are selling dishes,
02:22 no one is focusing on desserts.
02:24 Ube has a touch in my life as a pastry chef.
02:29 So, what is the ultimate dessert of a Filipino
02:33 that uses Ube?
02:35 So, we thought of Halo-Halo.
02:37 Even though it's cold in Australia,
02:39 they still sell and sell at the same time
02:42 their cold Halo-Halo.
02:44 Here in Sydney,
02:46 surprisingly, when it's cold,
02:48 people still eat ice cream.
02:50 Delicious.
02:52 Bring me back to my childhood.
02:54 Let's go to Milan, Italy,
02:58 where Philip and Dorothea Celorio,
03:02 opened their Filipino restaurant in 2020.
03:05 Halo-Halo is a national dessert of Filipinos.
03:12 Wherever you go, you'll find Halo-Halo.
03:16 Because of the heat in Italy,
03:18 Filipinos prefer a fab cooler
03:20 and the classic Halo-Halo is of a different breed.
03:22 While we see them eating,
03:25 we can really taste the Halo-Halo.
03:28 And while they're eating,
03:30 they're laughing and saying,
03:31 "The Halo-Halo is delicious."
03:33 Overall, we make Halo-Halo bigger.
03:39 It's now part of the fast food chain.
03:43 And we know that this is a reflection
03:47 of the identity of Filipinos.
03:50 We may have borrowed it from outside,
03:52 but we changed it and it's now showing
03:56 its uniqueness as a kind of national dessert,
04:02 as some call it, for the Filipinas.
04:04 Eating Halo-Halo is like an adventure.
04:08 You don't know what you'll find,
04:11 just like us Filipinos.
04:13 We're mixed with belief and imagination.
04:17 But we're sure that we have a common identity.
