00:00When you're in Malabon, you can't help but taste the Pancit Malabon that they make big.
00:12But it's not the only thing that brings you back to this city.
00:16Because there's a place that's really good at cooking and making money.
00:23The Okoy. It's big and big and it's not stingy with the shrimp.
00:30Oh my, my dears, can you see what's in front of me?
00:33But it's still my color, the Okoy.
00:35But what's special about this Okoy is that it's not small in size.
00:39It's like the shrimp is for swahe.
00:42Swahe and it's big, it's really big.
00:45Okoy ng Malabon kayo dyan!
00:48From City Hall in Malabon, in less than 4 minutes, the Conception Market will be here.
01:02Aside from vegetables and meat, this place is attended by buyers.
01:08You can really double the size of the Okoy you're selling.
01:14In June of last year, Laira started selling Okoy in the market.
01:18Before, I used to work as an office girl.
01:20I was really into Disney Princess.
01:22That's why when I came here, I felt like I was doing something that I didn't know about.
01:26I do everything.
01:28Laira inherited the recipe and position from her uncle, Tony.
01:32I think he's proud of us because we were able to build up well.
01:36It's been 6 months that we've been holding this.
01:39Thank you, Lord.
01:40She just started selling Okoy online last year.
01:43Laira didn't expect that this would be the change in her business.
01:48I'm really thankful for that.
01:50We already vlogged that.
01:54Before, she only earned 1,000 pesos a day.
01:57It's really far from what she earns after getting famous.
02:01But now, she's earning more than 1,000 pesos a day.
02:06It's really far from what she earns after getting famous.
02:12Most of the orders that she gets are from online.
02:16We have a lot of orders, online orders, walk-ins.
02:21But when it comes to earnings, it's really good.
02:24That one day's earnings, we cut it off for 15 days.
02:30In the video, some netizens noticed that Laira looks angry.
02:34But wait, she's explaining.
02:36I'm really not angry.
02:38It's hot, that's why I'm like that.
02:40In the videos, try it. It's normal because it's hot.
02:45It's really hot.
02:46This is also the hardest part of this business.
02:49Of course, it's hot. It's hot during the day.
02:52You're standing during the day.
02:54But at the end of the day, if you're going to earn, you're going to count your earnings.
03:00You won't get tired.
03:02It's really hot, especially when there are a lot of people.
03:07Even though her Okoy store went viral, it's not just a hype.
03:11For those who buy from us, they only come back a few times.
03:14Yes, we have a lot of vines.
03:17We also have vines from Makati that come here.
03:20Our Okoy, even if there's no vinegar, it's delicious.
03:22Even if it's cold, it's delicious.
03:23It's delicious.
03:24You can eat it as a snack, you can eat it as a snack, you can eat it as a snack.
03:28That's right.
03:29It's delicious. It's crispy.
03:32Let's eat.
03:36The cooking process of their Okoy is simple.
03:39On one plate, we'll put the tofu and squash, and then we'll put the shrimp.
03:44For the overload Okoy, the whole plate will be filled with shrimp.
03:48Then we'll put butter again so that it will stick together.
03:52So that when we put it in the oil, it will stick together.
03:58All together.
03:59They fry it twice to get the right crispiness.
04:05After 3 to 4 minutes, the overload Okoy is cooked.
04:11One order is P90.
04:14Two to four people can be sold here.
04:17They also have regular Okoy for P50.
04:21Why is your Okoy like this? Your shrimp is big, right?
04:24Yes, of course, that's the best Okoy for us.
04:27We use a lot of vegetables, but it's mostly this size.
04:30Lyra went viral, and you know, because of that, her business grew.
04:35How much can you earn now?
04:39As long as it's big.
04:41How many digits?
04:42Five.
04:43Five digits per day.
04:46You know, everyone who comes here asks,
04:49Is that an Okoy?
04:51Cover my face.
04:53Cover my face.
04:55It's so heavy.
04:57The other Okoy is like flying in the air.
05:00This one is hard to fly because it's heavy.
05:03It has a heavy tail.
05:05There's a lot of shrimp.
05:07Maybe more than 20 pieces.
05:08It's around 25.
05:10Right, it's around 25.
05:15I feel like I want to drink your sauce.
05:17It's really good, ma'am.
05:18It's a win.
05:19This dish is really good.
05:21And for example, you have mung bean.
05:23Wow.
05:24Stir-fried mung bean.
05:25This is a win.
05:29It seems to believe that Lyra's Okoy is really big,
05:33and not just for the clout.
05:35I believe that as long as you're in front of your customers,
05:39whatever they see in the video,
05:42they'll taste it, they'll see it.
05:46I'm enjoying the opportunity.
05:48I'm really manifesting more opportunity.
05:51I'm feeling the moment.
05:54All of us are waiting for a break in life.
05:57And when the right time comes,
05:59we should be ready to embrace the opportunity.
06:03Take your time.
06:05There's time for you.
06:07All the hardships,
06:09all the struggles,
06:11there's time for you.
06:13We're really thankful that Tony's gave us a break.
