Witness a culinary showdown of six Filipino American chefs as they compete for the grand prize at KULINARYA: A FILIPINO CULINARY SHOWDOWN, hosted by the Philippine Consulate General, Philippine Department of Tourism and Filipino American Arts Exposition.

Three finalists each in the Amateur and Professional Divisions have advanced to showcase their culinary skills and talents in this exciting cook-off, where they must prepare a first course (appetizer or soup), their version of adobo, a second entrée of their choice, and a dessert, in a head-to-head challenge.

Professional Division:
Edgar Grajo – Fairfield, CA
Kristela Mendoza – San Leandro, CA
Cocoy Ventura – Vallejo, CA

Amateur Division:
Nathan Camba – San Jose, CA
Clemente Escopete – Hercules, CA
Aileen Suzara – Oakland, CA

Featuring Franco Finn as emcee, the contestants will be judged by respected food connoisseurs and local personalities, including Kelly Degala, Thomas Weibull, GraceAnn Walden, Lynn Bennet, Nancy Freeman and Jun Belen.

KULINARYA attendees may sample specialty Philippine dishes at the FOOD SHOWCASE by participating local Filipino restaurants and caterers including:
•  Mercury Lounge
•  Pampanga's Cuisine
•  Patio Filipino
•  No Worries
•  New Filipinas Restaurant
•  Heavenly Ice Cream
•  Ramar Foods




The mission of KULINARYA is to elevate Philippine cuisine, promote local Filipino fine dining establishments and encourage people to engage in Kulinarya Tours in the Philippines. We hope to bring greater awareness and appreciation of Filipino cuisine among the community at large, so that when given a choice in dining options, one would decide: "Let's go Filipino!"
