When it comes to simple, comforting Filipino dishes, Ginisang Upo always hits home. It’s that humble dish you crave on a lazy Sunday afternoon — light, healthy, and so easy to cook! Soft pieces of upo (bottle gourd) soak up the flavours of garlic, onions, and tomatoes. Every spoonful feels like a warm hug from home.

If you’re looking for a dish that’s both comforting and full of flavor, Filipino Chicken Curry is a must-try. It’s creamy, mildly spiced, and always served with plenty of rice. Unlike the stronger Indian curries, the Filipino version is lighter, more savory, and perfect for the whole family.
