MAX FOODIE: PHILIPPINES PART 2
The story of cacao is more akin to South America, but in this episode, Sashi tracks the story of cacao in the Philippines, the entry point of cacao in Asia. With his friend, Spanish chef, Chele Gonzalez, they embark on an anthropological exploration tracing how the ancestral varietal cacao (crillio) came to be in the Philippine islands. Visiting farms to mystical islands, to top kitchens in Manila, this is the ‘never-before-told’ tale of cacao in the Philippine islands.
