Flavor Fusion Davao on a Plate


As part of the Flavors of the Philippines Campaign under Madrid Fusion Manila, Flavor Fusion is a gathering of Davao’s finest chefs interpreting and showcasing Davao’s treasured dishes.  This event would not be possible without SM Lanang and it’s sponsors – Sunmade Rice (Carlo Lorenzana), Malagos Cheese (Olive Puentespina), Crocodile Park & Farm (Sonny Dizon) and Umalag Farms for the Kitayama Wagyu Meat (Vicky Lauchengco and the Agustines Family).
In cooperation with SM Supermalls, this event is curated by Carmina del Rosario, also known as the Crazy Cook, who participated in Madrid Fusion Manila last year.  She was the only one from Mindanao who was invited to cook at the VIP Mindanao Regional Lunch where she served Balabacua to the VIP guests, foreign press and to the ‘rock star’ chefs like Paco Roncero, Ramon Freixa, Margarita Fores, Glenda Barreto, Myrna Seguismundo, Bruce Ricketts, JC de Terry, etc.  Since then, she has been on a crusade to promote Davao cuisine and make it a center for culinary excellence in Mindanao.

Flavor Fusion: Davao on a plate is an opportunity that brings together the best chefs sharing their craft, their talent, and their expertise.  Flavor Fusion not only promotes Davao cuisine and but Davao tourism as well. Flavor Fusion proves how Davaeonos could stand proud before the rest of the country.

Chef Anton Abad, Executive Chef of Vikings  prepared an exciting spread of kinilaw.  We Davaoenos are very familiar with this staple.  Chef Anton's 3 versions called Kinilaw in 3 ways.

At Madrid Fusion, Margarita Fores described this as the foie gras of the sea.  If you haven’t tried bagyabay before it is almost as decadent as foie gras.
