They usually take pictures of the food they eat and ask the waiters to take a group picture of them inside the restaurant. Photos of food and group pictures at restaurants are some of the most common posts you will find in social media in the Philippines. Listen again- "when together with the gang" is... |

| Eric: All together, "It's fun to eat when together with the gang!" |
| Camille: Masarap kumain kapag kasama ang barkada! |
