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.
