With the theme of “Engaging the Youth in Shaping the Future of Philippine Culinary Heritage and Gastronomy,” explore and savor the rich flavors and colorful history behind 11 featured dishes by Newport World Resorts’ award-winning restaurants.

All the way from the Visayas and Mindanao islands comes a regional dish called Sinuglaw that captivates the taste buds with a delightful balance of savory and tangy flavors. Known for its innovative approach in the kitchen, Casa Buenas at Newport Garden Wing’s version of Sinuglaw shows off a creative flair through succulently grilled pork, tuna ceviche, and toyomansi gelee.
