00:00Here in Kalaokan, there's something that's causing a ruckus.
00:04They say that there's a dinosaur's head here.
00:11No, no, don't touch it. It's small. Don't touch it.
00:14It's a dinosaur.
00:16Oh my, Ms. Luza, it's here.
00:19Here in Kalaokan, they're making a dinosaur's head into a sinigang.
00:25The dinosaur is pitiful.
00:28Are you serious?
00:30Sinigang na dinosaur? How can we taste a sinigang na dinosaur?
00:33Is this the life of a dinosaur?
00:35In Manila? Where is it? Let's go and taste it.
00:38The truth is, this is a sinigang na ulo ng baboy.
00:41The dinosaur's head was cut because of its size.
00:45It's so big.
00:46Hello? Hello?
00:49I feel like I'm in a laboratory.
00:52What?
00:56It has a freckle.
00:58They say that this brought a lot of profit to the businessman, Billy Joe.
01:02We were able to earn around P450,000.
01:05It didn't go down to P350,000.
01:08It moved.
01:09Almost every day.
01:11Wow, we got in.
01:14KALAOKAN
01:20Almost every day, this is the situation in Kanto Ocho.
01:24This is delicious. I like it.
01:26Why did you come here? I can't forget this place.
01:28I always pass by here.
01:30Yes, me too.
01:31Of course, your mimasor will not be left behind.
01:35I will taste the sinigang na ulo ng dinosaur.
01:39It's delicious. The soup is delicious.
01:44This is good.
01:46It's delicious when you eat it with rice.
01:48There you go.
01:50There you go.
01:52The meat is solid.
01:55I wouldn't have guessed that this is the head of a dinosaur.
02:03The eyes are so big.
02:05To cook the sinigang na ulo ng dinosaur,
02:07the head is washed in running water until the blood is removed.
02:12It will be seasoned with long green chilies, onions, and tomatoes.
02:20It will be boiled for an hour to soften.
02:22Then, it will be seasoned to taste the sinigang.
02:25It will be boiled for another hour and it's ready to be served.
02:30It can be sold from P155 to P200 depending on the size.
02:36A blogger said that the head of a dinosaur is like that.
02:41That's true.
02:42People are really picky.
02:47Before his famous sinigang na ulo ng dinosaur,
02:49Billy Joe started selling sinigang na ulo ng dinosaur in 2016.
02:53But it wasn't easy.
02:55I tried.
02:57It's hard.
02:59First, I couldn't get the flavor.
03:02I was about to give up because I couldn't get the flavor.
03:06When I was about to give up,
03:09an old man came to me.
03:13The old man told him what ingredients he should add to his sinigang na ulo ng dinosaur
03:17to make it more delicious.
03:19The first time I cooked it,
03:21I tasted it right away.
03:23I said, this is what I've been looking for.
03:25I'm thankful to him because he's the one who taught me.
03:29I was about to give up.
03:32I really don't want to give up.
03:33I'm really thankful to him.
03:37Now, I don't see him anymore.
03:39How can I make him happy?
03:41I want to make him happy personally.
03:43I want to make him happy personally.
03:47I don't see him anymore.
03:49Since then, Billy Joe's business has grown.
03:51There are now parrots.
03:53He even thought of adding sinigang na ulo ng baboy to his menu.
03:58I didn't expect that he would sell it.
04:01I bought the food.
04:04I cooked it here in that place.
04:07When the customers saw it,
04:09they said, this is for me.
04:11It's not our food yet.
04:13I won't sell it.
04:15Maybe, we can taste it.
04:17That's how they do it.
04:18Until it became a hit.
04:20Until a lot of people came.
04:21Everywhere.
04:22When I was in the country,
04:24I almost knew the people who ate my food.
04:26Riders.
04:27They ate my food again and again.
04:28Now, I don't know where they came from.
04:33Before Billy Joe's food became a hit,
04:35he tried a lot of jobs.
04:38I tried to construct.
04:40I tried to make bottle jams.
04:42Fishbowl.
04:43I sold fishbowl.
04:45Tricycle.
04:46Delivery of bread.
04:49Bakery.
04:50I tried a lot of things.
04:52I will continue to cook.
04:54Because I really like to cook.
04:56I really like to cook.
04:58When I was 12 years old,
04:59I was only allowed to cook mung bean stew.
05:02I liked it.
05:04Now, he is slowly aiming for his career.
05:08I have traveled a lot.
05:10I have a house.
05:13I have a house.
05:14I have land.
05:15I have cars.
05:18I don't stick to the era.
05:21But somehow,
05:23I have something to live for.
05:26It's not like before.
05:27It's almost gone.
05:29What I used to earn,
05:31it was just enough for me.
05:33What I earn now,
05:34what I spent last night,
05:35the next day,
05:36I will look for a job again.
05:38If before, it was just food and a job,
05:40now,
05:41Billy Joe has given life to others.
05:45I have friends.
05:46Others,
05:47I don't know.
05:48Tiga Bisayas,
05:50Tiga Bicol,
05:51Tiga Laguna.
05:54They are all different people.
05:55Before, they don't have jobs.
05:58Then, they let me in.
06:00Now, they are happy.
06:02Billy Joe is still making sure
06:04that he is the one in charge of his business.
06:07It's really good
06:08that you are the one
06:10in charge of your business.
06:12Even if you have people,
06:14you are still there.
06:15You can't just earn money.
06:17You can't just sit there.
06:18That's not okay.
06:19For me, that's not a job.
06:21You still have to work.
06:23Don't let people
06:25take advantage of you.
06:27Don't trust them.
06:29Sometimes,
06:30that's where a business goes wrong.
06:32Because,
06:33if we can't say,
06:35people are not the same.
06:37The bonus of Billy Joe,
06:39in the success of his business,
06:41is to be patient.
06:43It needs to be long.
06:46Even if you are tired,
06:48you need to smile to them.
06:50I am always thankful to them.
06:52Even if they let me in or out.
06:55I am always thankful to them.
06:57That's the best thing
07:01about this business.
07:03You feed them.
07:04You make them full.
07:05That's the best thing.
07:07Then, they leave the office smiling.
07:11Our food is worth it.
07:15I am always thankful to them.
07:19Like Billy Joe,
07:20there are people in our lives
07:22that we don't expect.
07:24Friends or foreigners
07:26who give advice
07:27or products that attract attention.
07:30Whatever it is,
07:31it's up to us
07:32how we take care of it,
07:34nourish it,
07:35and make it sound.
