Eating with Jo Koy is a lot like seeing his stand-up routine: loud, in your face, and filled with stories about his eccentric Filipino family. When it came time for Sean Evans to dive head first into the menu at Jeepney Filipino Gastropub in NYC, the choice for a dinner companion was a no-brainer. From staples like chicken adobo and arroz caldo, to now-legendary dishes like halo-halo and balut, Jo breaks down the Filipino food dos and don’ts as only he could. Will Sean convince Jo to give balut another shot, or will he swear off bird embryos for ever? Find out on an all new SITW.

I lived in the Philippines for like 10 years. When I came back I struggled to used a knife with my food instead of a spoon. I prefer the spoon

I used to eat balut when i was a kid puting salt or vinegar pitching my nose so i won't be able to smell it my mom would turn the lights off so i couldn't see it but still i would close my eyes everytime i take a bite. Thank god until now i still eat balut in my memories…
