The typical Philippines food in restaurants

I interviewed the Asian Pacific Islanders' Club at the International Children's Festival on Hollman AFB yesterday. They talked about the type of typical Filipino food people get in restaurants. It's the first mini-interview among the four in the video. Take a look at what they say.

Asian Pacific Islanders' Club

Wherever you go in the America or Europe, you probably either find a Chinatown or some kind of Asian clubs. Asians tend to be tightly knitted and prefer to preserve their culture even when they are in a foreign country. I live in Alamogordo, which is a small town with 30,000 people. There is not a big Asian community, but yet there is an Asian Pacific Islanders' Club on Holloman Air Force Base. It is a DOD (Department of Defense) approved club on base with the goal of promoting the Asian Pacific cultures and friendship among different nationals.

I interviewed them in October when they had a fund raiser in preparation for the International Children's Festival on 15 December. They will be organizing a food tasting together with the German on base. I will be covering the event this Saturday, and will post the video on my New Mexico blog.
