Making a Travel Food Show in the Philippine Cordilleras!

Last year, I had the chance to make a indie travel + food show called Lasa Explorations! Season 1 features the cuisine of the Cordilleras, from Baguio to Kalinga. It was an amazing experience to discover and document lesser-known Philippine cuisine in a region that’s so rich in culture and history, and I can’t wait to explore more in future seasons.

Watch the first season as well as my director’s vlog below!

ABOUT THE SHOW:

No matter where we come from, nothing brings us together like sharing a good meal. LASA EXPLORATIONS is an independent food docu series dedicated to discovering hidden culinary gems around the Philippines. “Lasa” means taste in Filipino, and lasa is our gateway to learning more about our own culture and history.

The Philippines is scattered across 7,000 islands comprising several regions, each with their own distinct cultures and countless subcultures. Among these, only a relative few are known about beyond their places of origin. Lasa Explorations wants to contribute to expanding the conversation, to explore and appreciate the diversity of Filipino food and culture--one dish at a time.
