I learned how to cook when I was 6, and I’ve never stopped. Cooking has always brought me so much joy, but being able to share Filipino food and culture with others makes it even more meaningful.

Last week’s boodle fight class was extra special. I’m so grateful to Richmond Community Kitchen for always embracing my out-of-the-box ideas, and to my family and friends for helping me keep my nerves down.

The most meaningful moment was when a Filipina grandma told me that my adobo was the best she’d ever had. It filled my heart with so much joy, especially because it was Mama Tel’s recipe. Hearing that made me feel as though Mama Tel was speaking through her.

I’m incredibly grateful for the opportunity to share my love for Filipino food, showcase what I’ve learned, and honor my heritage in my own little way. ❤️🇵🇭

Hi everyone! I’m about to teach another exciting class and collaborate again with to bring my ideas to life! I can’t wait to share my knowledge with all of you!
Link in my bio for the class!!
This time my class will be called “Boodle Fight: A Filipino Shared Table Experience”
A boodle fight is a Filipino communal dining tradition where a large spread of food is laid out on banana leaves and everyone eats together using their hands (kamayan). It originated in the Philippine military, where soldiers of all ranks ate together at one long table. The word “fight” refers to the fast, energetic way soldiers ate during their short breaks, symbolizing equality, teamwork, and camaraderie. Today, it represents unity, cultural tradition, and the joy of eating together. This demonstration-style class will showcase a variety of dishes including mango salad, Filipino adobo, pancit, and a Filipino version of stir-fried shrimp, all commonly enjoyed in this style of communal dining. Throughout the session, participants will receive detailed recipes, culinary insights, and practical tips as each dish is prepared and will have the opportunity to sample every item showcased during the class. So excited to see you all there!
