About the chefs:

When asked about their favorite Filipino dish from the regions they represent

CHEF BRUCE LIM

Bruce Lim’s Rustique Kitchen

What is your favorite dish from Luzon? Sinigang

“It reminds me of home. It’s the dish I know that no matter how hard the day is, or how sick I am, it will warm me up. It makes me feel happier. So if food is all about feelings, Sinigang for me is pure happiness.”

CHEF TATUNG SARTHOU

Alab Filipino Restaurant

What is your favorite dish from Vizayas? Chicken Inasal

 “It’s a simple dish to do but well-loved by everyone. It also pairs well with almost any other Filipino Dish.”

CHEF SIDER TADTAD

Big 8 Corporate Hotel

What is your favorite dish from Mindanao? Any dish cooked “Lotlotan” style

“The “LOTLOTAN” style is cooking method that uses a bamboo pole to enhance the flavors of a dish (meat or seafood). Cooking a la lotlotan style is also associated with the generous use of natural herbs and spices that is very abundant in Mindanao.

Cooking in lotlotan style inspires me as it showcases my ethnic and tribal beginnings and the very diverse culture of Mindanao.”
