Savor Filipino Is Back!

Savor Filipino 2016 is back and all new!

New team.
New city.
New venue.
New chef lineup.
New format.

The only thing that remains from the last event in 2014 are the Filipino spirit and love for Filipino food.

We are so grateful for the supporters and organizers of our last event 2 years ago. Over 25,000 attendees came to Savor Filipino '14! Because of this event, we were able to meet so many new people and collab with chefs from all over the country and abroad. We took 2015 off to get our non-profit status settled and to reflect on the year prior. Before we knew it, we were planning for the Savor Filipino 2016. 

Savor Filipino 2016 will be held at The Overlook Lounge in Oakland, California. The theme is "buksan" which invites our attendees to open their minds and palates to the epic lineup of Filipino dishes and drinks to be offered.  After the day event, there will be a VIP dinner in the same building where guests will enjoy a multi-course meal.

The complete chef lineup will be released shortly. Until then, stay locked on our Filipino Food Movement Instagram where we will announce a new chef from our roster ever Friday!

Interested in being a featured chef, sponsor or volunteer? Go to the official Savor Filipino website and apply directly on the website. Looking just to eat and drink? Get your tickets here! JUST SAYING...prices for tickets go UP on August 1, so get your tickets today!

Thank you to everyone who has supported so far! I see you and we are grateful! Our goal is 500 people and I have well over that on my friends list here on Facebook. If each one of you pledges, we can get Filipino food and our event Savor Filipino trending on social media!

Again, we thank everyone who is in this movement with us!
