What is Filipino Cuisine?

Growing up, I was one of five children of varying ages from 22 all the way down to 8. During the day, we all had are own stuff to do whether it was schoolwork, sports, errands, or hanging out with friends. But when you could smell the aroma of the food, it was time to head in for dinner. The one guaranteed time of day that the family would come together and have a delicious meal. Filipino food is a mix of Spanish, Malaysian, Chinese, Japanese, Indian, and American cuisines and techniques. But Filipino food is not a simple question of what is but an experience. It brings together the great aspects of each culture and marries them together for any palate to enjoy. Not only does it bring cultures together but people. Filipino food is meant to be shared with people and that's what makes it an experience.
