country- and it is still felt
today in many of the dishes.
However, more prevalent to
me are the influences of
other Asian neighbors,
particularly China and to a
lesser extent Japan and
Thailand, plus the almost
pervasive influence of
America. In the stores, most
imported brands are
American and American
foods become more of a part
of the eating culture and
cuisine every day. To the
point that it is now a blurred
line with some Filipinos as
to what is Filipino and what
is American food.
McDonalds, KFC, Burger
King and Pizza Hut grow by
the day, alongside Jolibee
with its FilAM menu. Still
places like Mang Inasal,
Tokyo Tokyo and Chicken
Bon Chon continue to grow,
but here in the Philippines,
American fast food is
winning the battle for minds
and peso’s, as it has done
pretty well everywhere.
There have been notable
misses, such as Carl’s Jr.,
Wendy’s and Burger King,
none of which has achieved
the popularity of
McDonald’s. In fact, Carl’s
Jr. has now closed down in
the Philippines.

Still Americana and the
West is an integral part of
this friendly Asian country
and its outlook. I just hope
that it retains the best parts
of its history, heritage,
culture and cuisine as it
evolves and modernizes.
Happy Cooking and Eating!!
