can hear that buzzing in the background that is just lucy making some breakfast she's actually leaving me today which sounds more dramatic than it is she's off to get a haircut for the first time in a very long time that you guys she's filming that so you guys will see that in another video but welcome to today's vlog hope you guys are all doing well welcome to another day in manila in lockdown now i know what you're thinking why around hoodie george you're in the philippines it's 35 degrees and i would agree with you what is the temperature today 34 degrees going up to 37 degrees so i was pretty much close i was close with the temperature beautiful day outside today we were watching old vlogs the other day and we were talking about in those vlogs things we have planned for that week like oh today's this then tomorrow we're actually doing that and then on thursday we're doing this and then at the weekend we're doing all of this stuff that doesn't seem to happen anymore and we noticed that it was a very it was a moment where we both said we never say really what we're doing in vlogs anymore coming up and that is purely because we do we don't know we have no idea what we're doing in general but also with our weeks and our times and stuff manila i think we do a bit of an update in a couple of days it's the 12th of may right now day that i'm filming this but how are you guys doing comment below where you're watching from in the world we have viewers from all over the world which is crazy one more hoodie yeah one more one hoodie one i'm hoping that if i wear this it will do good things and it will encourage this gym to open this is the gym that we go to fitness army been closed for months now i've lost some muscle um i've lost some strength hoping to get back into that a little bit and two sometimes i just like i like the feeling of wearing a video like being cozy and i like this particularly i love the little philippines flag on here as well so lucy is making me up some breakfast i'm gonna have some oats to begin with we've started talking about food a little bit more in our vlogs because a lot of you guys requested that what we eat and stuff we are currently on a it's not a meal plan but all our meals for the day get delivered other than the breakfast that lucy is actually making me so we get two meals each a day delivered very very healthy meals high protein meals and they come fresh and they actually have been tasting really good we're not working with the company we just make an order each week ourselves and pay for it right each day as part of the plan has like a theme doesn't it so like sunday's western then there's an asian day there's is there a mediterranean day yeah there's all different types of food but today it's filipino food which is awesome because i've never seen when we usually when we have filipino food it's like a ton of garlic rice a load of nice meat and it's on a big platter right pork belly and electron and stuff like that and delicious food that probably isn't the healthiest this is like a condensed version small portion and it's done in a very healthy way yeah so let me just quickly listen i'm not advocating small portions like that you have to find what's right for you big if you're trying to gain muscle you need big portions but the fact is it's high in protein and loads of vegetables exactly that's what we like about it the most what we have the there was four choices for today let me find it could have had chicken loganisa filipino beef picadillo uh le paz bat choy or grilled fish with eggplant salad so we went for the beef and the fish i think they have 39 grams of protein each it's awesome yeah it's really cool we're not going to have them right now but yeah i can show you guys later what i'm planning on doing in this vlog is showing you guys these meals we've never had filipino food in this way in like one of these pre-packaged meal plans but when we saw some filipino you guys know we love filipino food so when we saw some filipino food options in part of our choices for the week we're like yes let's lock those in so nice we get to still enjoy these flavors yeah exactly so we're going to see if it's still flavorful if it still is flavoursome if it's still satisfying because the food is maybe slightly more i don't think it is actually personally it's quite salty i was gonna say it's a little bit more bland but maybe compared to like eating out and if they're cooking with a ton of butter and all this stuff we did something funny yesterday on our walk you could tell we were three or four days into this plan we were super hungry right we were walking up the high street and you know the high street's in sections so we were in the first part of the high street and we said okay out of the restaurants in this little strip pick three dishes from any of them what are you all gonna go to so we'd like to do like a shake shack thing and this that and we were just basically drooling all the way up the high street it was the quickest walk ever because we were talking the whole time um and it just made the walk go super fast but we were just literally talking about our favorite foods in bdc yeah and also on my instagram the other day one of my q a questions was best restaurants in manila and i managed to just reel off like 30 restaurants like the ice completely off topic but the food in bgc is like world class isn't it like how amazing that we live somewhere with these choices around us but anyway that is one thing we're kind of starting to miss we're day four into this it's not a program but we're day four into eating these meals and we've decided that at the weekends or at least one day on the weekend we're gonna go out and eat some of our favorite food to keep it hopefully sustainable so monday to friday we'll be really really good on this plan and then saturday maybe maybe we make saturdays like our fun eating day and we go out film some more food videos we started watching some food videos on youtube last night of these two guys in new york um are going around chinatown chinatown cheap eats or something yeah what food videos do you guys yeah and it made us want to start filming some food videos again and we can do that on the weekend we can go i know three or four different places eat as much as we can and film a load of cool fun food videos i mean we love our travel vlogs we can't travel at the moment i feel like maybe we focus on food for a little bit and just enjoy the food content because we love filming that stuff here you guys enjoy it right so yeah thank you so i'm gonna have my oats now which you've seen before um and then i'll join you when i'm eating lunch a bit later and we'll try some of this filipino food on camera and we'll see how it is right it is finally lunch time i've been sat there waiting for it to be lunchtime who can relate to that okay so is this the one yes this is the one i want to try this is filipino beef paccadillo pacodillo pacodilo tell me how you pronounce this and then we've also got for later i don't know if you guys will see us eat this one but we've got grilled fish with eggplant salad that is really healthy really fresh looks good looks good but let's try this one oh lucy also gets a little greek yogurt as well okay so i'm actually the good one of the good things about us doing this is that we just eat them out of here we don't wash up we don't use more plates and cutlery and stuff or do use cutlery but i'm literally just going to reheat two to three minutes reheat consumption before today these are fresh 39 grams of protein 12 grams of fat 48 grams of carbs total calories in the milk 456. i don't really count calories when i was really trying to pack on muscles i was making sure i was in a calorie surplus so i was eating more calories than i was burning right now around maintenance works for me i'm not trying to drastically lose or drastically put on right now because i can't get in the gym to put on a ton of muscle i can do a little bit at home workout so just just to maintain until we get back in the gym i'm gonna actually for three minutes oh there's an egg in here as well so a little bit extra protein this is how it looks we've got some beef it's kind of like ground up beef i think with an egg and then some quinoa not gonna lie looks a little bit bland is that quinoa that might not even be quinoa maybe some other kind of grain also some carrots here it looks unless the beef has got a lot of flavor which hopefully it will there's some potatoes in with the beef as well um then to be honest this one looks a little bland so let's see these things get so hot these containers this is what it looks like heated up pretty much the same burn my hand smells pretty good smells pretty good let's have a taste comment below what you guys are eating today for lunch i'm hoping this is going to be delicious so far i've been impressed with all the meals um on this kind of plan but as you can see we have the beef the egg the carrots lucy do you know what this grain is bulgari that's it yeah you're actually right okay so let's get a little bit of the beef it's really like ground down beef i can't believe if you've had this dish before it's also some is that so there's also some there's like jalapenos in there a little bit of dazzle on top i think so i guess the bulgar wheat is instead you would usually have rice but i guess it's been substituted mmm wow what does that taste like so the beef is incredibly soft and actually tastes pretty salty that's way better than i've expected it looks kind of bland try the bulgari on its own [Music] okay there's not a huge amount of flavor in the bulgar wheat on its own but that's fine i can mix it around with the beef but wow the beef is soft it's salty it's got a lot of flavor it's almost got a slight sweetness to it just very very slightly maybe that's the kind of filipino side of it coming in i know that a lot of foods are slightly sweeter for example spaghetti got the potatoes in there i think there's also some maybe kidney beans in there it kind of tastes a bit like a chili like a chili con carne type thing that's the vibe i'm getting i think this is also the first time i've had filipino food without rice because rice is a staple of filipino food most dishes you would have with rice even the soups you'd have some rice on the side pretty much every meal so to have bulgari instead it still gives you that kind of carb fulfillment not quite the same satisfaction taste but together mixed in pretty good yeah this is tasty okay so i've got the grilled fish i think it's mahi mahi but it looks very chunky it almost looks like chicken it's very meaty looking we've got quinoa underneath an eggplant salad a tomato and some courgette so let's give this a go the fish itself is very flaky actually you see the flakiness of that looks good that takes me back to being on an island somewhere in like el nido on a boat eating this kind of stuff with my hands it tastes barbecued it tastes kind of um grilled it tastes so good wow let's try this eggplant salad with it it's really good it's kind of got quite a um quite a strong taste i think there's some maybe calamansi in there it's got a kind of citrusy edge got a nice big tomato here and it's nice actually having this fish with quinoa because it's a lot lighter of course it would taste better with white rice but we're on the health train so no white rice for a little while i think very impressed with this i can't believe they put it to taste like i'm on an island somewhere eating freshly cooked grilled fish so i'm so impressed by this we actually already ordered for next week um with this meal plan thingy again they've got all the different sort of days laid out there is another filipino dinner so i can't remember what was in it now something with chicken i think there was an adobo and a few other options but so much flavor we are gonna end this video off here we hope you guys are keeping safe wherever you are we know that there was an earthquake today and we already filmed a video about that this morning and we still haven't actually seen any news on exactly when anything actually happened in the area where it was so we hope all you guys are keeping safe wherever
