The taste of authentic Filipino food would always be present in the list of answers that overseas Filipinos would give when asked about the things they miss most in the Philippines. Filipinos love to eat but as much as they take delights in tasting cuisines from other countries (American, Italian, Chinese, Spanish etc), they would always crave for Filipino dishes such as  adobo, inihaw, lumpia, kare-kare to crispy pata to desserts such as halo-halo and halayang ube.

The Filipino dishes mentioned are all available in a Filipino restaurant- Barrio Fiesta. Fortunately, this restaurant that started its operation in 1952 has several branches abroad.

Their History

With a history dating back to 1952, Barrio Fiesta continues to provide its customers with the authentic taste of true Filipino cuisine. Like the Filipino tradition it has been named after, Barrio Fiesta was, for a whole generation of Filipinos, a place for festivities, celebrations and the gathering of families and friends. Many milestones were marked by a visit to Barrio Fiesta Restaurant.

For Filipinos abroad, once they are inside Barrio Fiesta, they will be transported back in time to the Philippines with its ornate and festive ambience.

The cooks at Barrio Fiesta were all trained extensively the “Barrio Fiesta Way.” This is to make sure that Pinoys abroad really enjoy the “Taste of Home!”
