A brand new nationwide event is coming to Canada this April and it’s a celebration of Filipino cuisine. From April 1 to April 30, restaurants from Quebec to British Columbia will participate in Filipino Restaurant Month for the very first time.

The new festival, presented by Philippine Department of Tourism (PDOT) and the Philippine Consulate General in Calgary, will allow Canadians to experience Filipino cuisine in a whole new way.

Diners will get to try everything related to Filipino cuisine by ordering from prix fixe menus, including traditional dishes like Adobo, and dining experiences like the Kamayan finger food feast.

The menus will highlight “the unique variety of Filipino food, ingredients, chefs, and restaurants throughout Canada,” according to a press release about the event.

“Filipino food is integral to the country’s diverse culture with each region having their own unique and traditional recipes that are passed on from generation to generation,” it says.

Not only that, but customers will have a chance to win local and national prizes while dining at participating restaurants, from $25 vouchers to a vacation in the Philippines.
