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 nationwide will participate in Filipino Restaurant Month for the very first time, including some in Edmonton!
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. And naturally, a few spots around Edmonton have joined the fun!
