00:00Is your valentine's day cold?

00:09Don't worry, this soup will warm you up.

00:18The taste and ingredients are similar to Beef Mami,

00:23but the soup is darker and thicker because of the brain of the pig or cow.

00:29The bones are cooked together until the meat comes out.

00:33It's called Kinalas.

00:36Not only will you be happy,

00:38you will also be inspired to start a business if you know that the price of the pig is only Php 20.

00:45Ms. Selly is 75 years old.

00:48She has been feeding her parrots for more than 45 years.

00:53Ms. Selly is a big girl.

00:56That's why when she was young, she was good at peeling the bones.

01:00My father was a butcher.

01:02When I was 15 years old, I came here to Nagasiti.

01:08I was always invited by my cousins.

01:12In the hope that their family will get out of poverty,

01:16Ms. Selly agreed with her father to marry a man she doesn't love.

01:22When I was 18 years old,

01:25a man invited my father to marry someone he doesn't love.

01:33I said, I can't.

01:35But my father said,

01:37my life depends on you.

01:41Even though it was her own decision,

01:43Ms. Selly still tried to embrace her fate.

01:49I said, Lord, please help me to accept everything.

01:53I got married.

01:55We are not yet married.

01:56We have five children.

01:58What she is thankful for is her five children.

02:03My parents helped me a lot.

02:05They are not like other children who are precious.

02:08Whatever food I prepare,

02:10like stir-fried prawns,

02:11they don't have.

02:12That's why I love my children.

02:14They are not like others.

02:15Why is there no delicious food?

02:17Until now, I still remember that.

02:19But despite being together in life,

02:22Ms. Selly feels that she is alone in raising her family.

02:28That's why she decided to separate from her ex-husband

02:32and became a father and a mother.

02:37As a single mother,

02:39she took care of everything.

02:41She was the one who worked for us

02:46so that we could study in a private school.

02:51She was the one who took care of our parents.

02:55She promised to do everything without complaining.

03:01But what really changed in their life

03:05was just one dream.

03:07I said to God,

03:08Lord, my life is not happy in this world.

03:11I don't want to blame you.

03:13I'm going to sleep.

03:15Don't wake me up.

03:17That's what I said.

03:19Then an old man approached me in the middle of the night.

03:23He told me,

03:24Don't lose hope.

03:26Because of her dream,

03:28she was inspired to start a business.

03:31Even though she didn't cook before.

03:34And what she saw back then,

03:36that there were a lot of people in their area,

03:37was the Kinalas.

03:39So when I ran to the market,

03:41I bought a quail egg,

03:432 pesos of onions,

03:46and garlic,

03:48a packet of soy sauce in a repack.

03:52When I got home,

03:53I cooked it.

03:54But when it's cooked,

03:55I tasted it and it was delicious.

03:57And she gave birth to her soup specialty.

04:00What made her cook better

04:03was the flavor of the soup.

04:05She added beef bone broth

04:08and it melted in the tender meat.

04:11Ms. Selly's soup is delicious.

04:13And all of her ingredients are fresh.

04:16That's why people like me keep coming back here.

04:20Ms. Selly's flavor keeps coming back.

04:23Because it's so delicious.

04:25The sauce is delicious.

04:26Their soup is hot.

04:28But will you believe that

04:30Ms. Selly's only target in 1979

04:34was 20 pesos?

04:36At that time,

04:37it's equivalent to 1,500 pesos

04:41in our current currency.

04:43That's why she promised her customers

04:46that she will still be able to afford her food.

04:49For 50 pesos,

04:51you already have Kinalas and Luglug Combo.

04:54Just add 10 pesos,

04:56you still have extra eggs.

04:58Partner up with Baduya,

05:00which is a type of fried banana

05:02for 20 pesos

05:04and empanada for only 30 pesos.

05:08I had a little money

05:10from selling everyday.

05:12I saved it up.

05:14I built a house for her.

05:16It's a house of poverty.

05:18But just like any business,

05:21there are challenges.

05:23This pandemic is hard.

05:26It's hard.

05:27I don't know what to do.

05:28If it rains now,

05:29if there's a typhoon,

05:31if we can't go up,

05:33maybe the water level will be high.

05:36It's only this high.

05:38The cross can reach it.

05:39It's deep.

05:40All of this.

05:42But Ms. Selly

05:43won't give in to problems.

05:46It's all for the family.

05:49That's why,

05:50more than material things,

05:52her biggest investment

05:54is the good future of the children.

05:57She really worked hard for us

05:59to be able to go to school

06:00because she told us

06:02that's the only thing

06:04that she will give us,

06:06our education.

06:08The happiest thing is

06:10just like my children,

06:11I was able to finish school

06:13because of God's help,

06:14because of God's grace.

06:15Just like my daughter,

06:16she's in New Zealand now.

06:18She's working there

06:19in the hospital.

06:21At the age of 75 years old,

06:23she's still going on.

06:25She won't give up

06:26the people she loves.

06:28I will still serve my children

06:30as long as my beloved customers

06:32come here

06:33and look for me.

06:35Ms. Selly's love life

06:36has become cold.

06:38What she received

06:40from her in-laws and children

06:42is this.

06:44And it's even hotter

06:46in the soup.

06:54Hey!

06:58Hey!
