In an episode of Billboard's Takes Us Out, singer-songwriter Bella Poarch visits the Filipino restaurant Naks in New York City's East Village to try traditional dishes like lumpia, tocino, and ube while discussing her debut album, Picnic at the Cemetery. She opens up about how Filipino cuisine serves as her ultimate comfort food and connects to her childhood memories, family traditions, and farm upbringing. Poarch also shares behind-the-scenes insights into her creative process, including her DIY approach as a producer, recording real-life audio on her phone for the track "Hideaway," and the collaborative studio sessions that shaped songs like "Stay Gone."
