Filipino Food Movement Australia revives ‘Mabuhay Nights’ in Potts Point, NSW this August

Previous posts

The Filipino Food Movement Australia (FFMA) continues their Mabuhay Nights Pop Up Dining Series this August.

The term ‘Mabuhay’ conveys a myriad of emotions, and to Filipinos, it means “Welcome!”, “To Life!” or even simply a heartfelt “hello”. 

In the Mabuhay spirit this August, the Filipino-influenced menu created by guest chefs Aileen Aguirre and Francis Dela Cruz is inspired by their childhood memories in the Philippines. It will make you want to pull out the karaoke machine and sing along. 

Chefs Aguirre from Bulacan and Dela Cruz from Pampanga will present a special menu made from locally sourced and sustainable Australian native ingredients, using the slow food philosophy with deep, hearty flavours. “We are challenging ourselves with mindful development on cooking practices that steer away from enhancers, bringing a sense of quality, flavour, and health to all our dishes,” Aguirre said. 

Philippine cuisine combines food traditions from various ethnolinguistic groups and tribes. So it’s just natural that Aguirre and Dela Cruz have extraordinary cooking skills made up of influences from different regions. On the menu, you will find Rock oysters kilaw, Dinakdanan Toast, Jervis Bay Mussels Longanissa xo, and spatchcock inasal, to name a few.
