It's no secret that great cooking brings people together. Whether at the family dinner table or among kindred communities, a meal crafted with the freshest ingredients and utmost care can make all the difference, sustaining us in many ways. Happy Ongpauco-Tiu, Bianca Elizalde and Cherrie Atilano share this sentiment. While these three women come from distinct backgrounds, their journeys are indubitably tied together by their passion for quality food. Echoing the value of freshly prepared, shared meals are luxury kitchen appliance brands SubZero and Wolf. Their ingenious designs have long adorned spaces that brim with life, and now they celebrate the joy of exceptional meals in their shared "Fresh Food for Generations" campaign.
UPHOLDING TRADITIONS
As the chef and restaurateur behind various concepts in the country, Ongpauco-Tiu is widely regarded as a tastemaker and a hostess extraordinaire. She can easily craft a gorgeous spread of warm, nostalgic dishes reminiscent of her family's culinary legacy-after all, it was her father and grandmother who put up the pioneering Filipino restaurant Barrio Fiesta. While she ultimately forged her own path, Ongpauco-Tiu is continually inspired by familiar flavours and the feel of home, striving to foster this across all her entrepreneurial ventures today.
Much of what she does now is a nod to hearty heirloom recipes, fondly elevated with her flair and creative exploration in the kitchen. There, her Wolf appliances stand as a trusted partner whether she is preparing beloved recipes for her family or exploring new ones for her businesses. More than a culinary playground where she has developed and refined her skills over time, it has also become the backdrop of cherished traditions, such as the family gatherings every Sunday that her grandmother once started. "The kitchen would be our favourite happy place in our home," the chef remarks.
