I have a passion for cooking and Asian cuisine. With over thirty years of professional food service experience I attribute my most important cooking lessons as the ones I received at a young age from my grandmother. She taught me the essence of food and what makes it so important in our lives. Growing up in the Philippines meant fresh vegetables, fresh fruits, trips to the market for meats and fish. The Philippines is the crossroads of Asian cuisine and infused with flavors from all over the world and she taught me how to embrace those flavors. I love exploring new flavors and visiting old favorites and sharing those experiences with my fiends.

If you’ve ever stepped into a Filipino home, chances are the first thing you heard wasn’t “Hello”—it was, “Did you eat?” or “Do you want to eat?”

For Filipinos, food is our love language. It’s how we say, “I love you.” It’s how we welcome guests, celebrate milestones, reconnect with family, and sometimes even say, “I’m sorry.” No matter the occasion, there’s always food on the table.

This Filipino Independence Day weekend, we’re celebrating not only the freedom and resilience of the Filipino people, but also the rich culinary traditions that continue to bring us together. On June 12, 1898, the Philippines declared its independence, and today we honor that history through the flavors, stories, and hospitality that have been passed down for generations.

Join us at Maricel’s Kitchen this weekend for a taste of Filipino culture. We’re serving dinner tonight (June 12th), Filipino brunch all weekend, and our merienda menu featuring some of our favorite Filipino snacks and sweets.

Come hungry, bring your friends and family, and experience the Filipino way of showing love—one delicious bite at a time. 🇵🇭🍽️
