Kinilaw
Ocean to table, no filter. Fresh tanigue cured in vinegar, calamansi, ginger, chilies, and coconut milk. Bright, creamy, and awakening.
Local Leaf Love
Fresh. Flavorful. Farm-grown. Native greens, edible flowers, heirloom tomatoes, tossed in calamansi-honey dressing.
Calamansi Cake
Bright. Bold. Baked local. Sponge cake with calamansi juice and zest, topped with tangy glaze.
Mango Sticky Rice
Sarap in every spoonful. Sticky coconut rice with golden mango slices, using heirloom grains and local fruit.
