I've never had this ever in my life I've had plenty of tuna and it can [Music] in Mindanao there are a number of native ethnic groups practicing Islam all with their own unique identities cultures and food in davao we have ten tribes we have sixth Muslim tribes and the four lumads the endogenous people you're part of which tribe that was so bright today we'll be visiting current areas from the Mara now people just like so many other current areas throughout the Philippines they've got tons of little containers of food a barbecue joint with an owner from the two sub people what's the secret can you just tell me and trying the best Pajero in devout with Mary Lou I'm gonna try the B first and then I'm gonna try that banana who's promoting halal trade and tourism in davao 230 he used to top deputy mayors in every tribe that helped us a lot in promoting our allowed to resale with such a large cultural footprint in Mindanao I'm on a mission to discover the unique diversity of halal food in this city don't think I'm break me no no nothing can break me between the ocean and one of the vows main highways is what some locals refer to as the Muslim neighborhood along the street lined with halal restaurants and clothing shops lies Moe Venus car and area I am here at unsay at marinas it isn't a like aunt yes this is that auntie mo Vienna is part of the Mara now people a southern tribe in the predominantly Muslim region of Mindanao and for the last eight years she's been dishing out her own Mara now inspired recipes for lunch and dinner can you give me a couple recommendations kicking current area is the local name assigned to open-air eateries like this and like most current areas mo Venus has dozens of precooked options costing around a dollar or two each I think I'll get the tilapia and I would love to try your native chicken this is the tilapia right here [Music] coconut milk that looks beautiful I'm definitely gonna try that oh and then they slather on that coconut milk along with the tilapia I'm ordering some of our signature native chicken first of all it is hot as heck outside and so there's no better way to quench your thirst then with a super sugary Mountain Dew I've seen a lot of the signs here with Mountain Dew low votes on them and it would not surprise me at all if Mountain Dew is like well like we'll give you a free restaurant sign if you just put our logo on honestly that kind of advertising does not work on me I can see right through it it doesn't mean I'm gonna buy the product okay the owner has suggested that I try these two dishes over here BAM it's the native chicken it's gonna be a little more thin little less fatty probably a little more chewy and then over here we have a lot of people watching me eat hello let's try it out oh I think that's just fried ginger some fried up ginger that's very nice not too fatty not too robust but I'm sure it's gonna be super tasty let's try it out mmm I know what you're missing I'm gonna put in some lime a little bit of pepper honestly I didn't even see vinegar I'm just gonna put in a little bit of soy sauce the chicken it's already very delicious very aromatic it doesn't have a lot of fat on there and so I just want to add some wetness like that love it love arrived mmm very yummy wash it all down with the Mountain Dew honestly I don't know how to eat a neck and I feel bad I don't want to waste it but like I'm gonna save the neck for dessert here we have the tilapia it is just bathing in this coconut milk I just want to try it's the sauce they have on here oh very delicious right peppering big creamy I personally stay away from super bony fish like this just because I spent a lot of time picking it out of my teeth but she said this is one of her favorites here try it out full of flavor I'm creaming peppering plenty of salt on there this needs no extra sauce it doesn't need any help it can stand on its own two fins right guys it's a nice little breakfast or lunch should set you up for the day and all days costs only I've no idea how much does this cost she's too kind she won't let me pay and in fact she won't even tell me the price it is a charming little Street side comment area if there wasn't sign saying like Muslim eatery you would think it was just like any other card area it's halal food but it's for everybody our next food comes from the mera naam Kula dong and Mangan de now tribes and can be found outside certain mosques in the city of davao flavorful and affordable it's called pastel this is the muslim food is that type of food you're gonna show us how to make this now hostel starts by piling rice onto a banana leaf then adding a bit of chicken that's been heavily seasoned with salt pepper and garlic it's like a little banana yeah on peeling from the banana leaf and it's ready to go let's try it out mmm very sticky very simple energy-packed treatment I mean the chicken acts more like a flavouring than a real protein source but at 12 pesos are about 20 cents a serving pasta is a super affordable and tasty way to fill your belly the Philippines loves barbecue and on the end of this bump filled Street one lower halal restaurant has made its
