1. I think the complaints with the comparison with Filipino food is more the reference about garlic/onion, which makes it seem like that's a rare combination. 2. In regards to fine dining the more apt comparison would be to talk about what's special about the ingredients/preparation methods they use that deviate from Kingston 11 (of which it was stated it's more or less the same. Looking at the Kaya website/menu, the presentation does seem more refined rather than the typical steam table setup with side salad/steamed veggies in a Styrofoam container.

I feel the host of the show could be a bit more humble and sensitive, yes we get that you are a proud pinoy. But you don't have to say its like filipino food everytime almost suggesting and inferring something. Be more humble like chef nigel where he said he wants to open new doors for his community instead of saying oh people in my community can be very successful like me and I should be a role model to them

Never ate Philippine food nor Jamaican food but i know at one point, both country is conquered by Spanish (150 years/300 years. They might introduce the spanish food culture during that period. The taste might be mixed with local cuisine and transform to different food but sometimes they might have familiar taste

Hey all, can I post my gofundme link for my wheelchair van please? I'm trying hard to get the word out there. Been a long time fan, you're a real stand up group. Just the mere mention of my mission to your viewers in one of your more popular videos could really help out immensely. Thanks. Your fan Marty.

People are complaining about the host always referring the food to Filipino food well i do think that some food will remind you of something similar even as far off Jamaican to Filipino food, i think the chef is genuine about this reaction about the food.

Very interesting. His terminology differs a bit from my culture, but overall good stuff. Also, I actually didn't know ackee comes from South Africa in Jamaica. My folks are from Trinidad and it grew on trees for them.

Pimento in ackee and saltfish. idk about that but I'd try it. I will say Filipino food does remind me of jamaican food. I believe it's because countries were colonized and share a tropical climate.
