Welcome to Season
3, Episode 26. If you’re interested in bold flavors and a fusion of
various cultures, then you should try Guamanian AKA Chamorro
cuisine! With a foundation from the indigenous Chamorro people of
Guam, Guamanian Cuisine has adapted and adopted ingredients,
techniques, and entire dishes from the Philippines, Japan, Spain,
Mexico, and more. Much like the Philippines and Hawaii, colonialism
and migration have changed Guamanian cuisine over time. In this
episode, we review the history and cuisine of Guam. If you’re
interested in trying some Guamanian cuisine, we recommend checking
out Annie’s
Chamorro Kitchen. It’s a site dedicated to sharing
Chamorro cuisine. Cooking not your thing? If you’re in California,
there are two restaurants we found that serve Guamanian Cuisine…
SMACK’n Guamanian
Grill in San Diego and Prubechu in San
Francisco. Check them out if you’re local to those places! We also
introduce a new recurring segment called Which Do You Hate More?
Where we discuss two phrases: “Your English is So Good” and “Where
are You Really From?” For previous episodes and information, please
