Ok, so this was kinda random, not our usual “WhenInManila” type of video, but I really wanted to comment on this Sushi place I went to recently. I took that video with my camera phone.

Where I’m from, in San Diego, California, you usually go for some Mexican food when you need to feed an insatiable hunger.

First thing people ask me is whether or not the Nitrogen...

I love them with their Mexican flavor as guacamole in my burrito or taco, I love them when I had them in New Zealand on bread with some tomatoes and ham for breakfast, I love them when Brazilians mix them up into a shake, I even love them on my burgers, rice and everything really.
