An afternoon of bold flavors and beautiful fusion!✨
As part of the Melbourne Food and Wine Festival, i went to the .melb x .melbourne one day event where a Melbourne Filipino and a Peruvian restaurant teamed up to create a stunning three-course culinary experience. 🇵🇭🇵🇪
What made it so special? Both Filipino and Peruvian cuisines share deep roots in cultural fusion—drawing from Spanish and and Indigenous influences. It was like tasting the history and soul of two countries in every bite.
From kinilaw-meets-ceviche, every dish was creative, comforting, and so satisfying 😍.
The standout dishes for me was the Spanish mackerel kinilaw, barramundi with the enocado sauce and the leche flan with the Tanduay rum caramel 🙌❤️
