By Word Of Mouth, Here's Something To Chew On: At The Book Launch Of Bukambibig (Word Of Mouth) By Ige Ramos

"Eat Filipino food, not for the history, because we're not sure what is authentic. Eat Filipino food, not for the culture, because we're not exotic enough. Eat Filipino food because everything you know about it is wrong." In a series of introspective and deeply personal essays with narrative recipes, Ige Ramos presents a  refreshed perspective on our culinary heritage backed by years of extensive research and personal experiences for some food for thought...


What is Filipino food? Better yet, when does it become Filipino? And is it still truly authentic in a world where nothing really is authentic anymore? Noted culinary author and historian Ige Ramos shares his thoughts on Filipino cuisine, identity and authenticity in his latest book, Bukambibig (Word of Mouth) by Anvil Publishing. More than just another recipe book, Bukambibig (Word of Mouth) is an exploration on the flavors that unite us yet in so many ways also divide us in a never ending discussion beyond the dinner table. Let Ige Ramos show you how everything you thought you knew about Filipino food is wrong with Bukambibig (Word of Mouth).
