Interesting Reads about Filipino Food and Culture

A lot of articles have been written about Filipino food and culture over the years, and I want to compile those that interest me and share them with you.

Matter of Taste by Matthew Sutherland
I got this article as an email, googled it and found that it's in a lot Filipino blogs on food and culture. This was written in 1999 by an Englishman expatriate in the Philippines. The article is quite long, so I split it into 2 - this part 1 is about popular Filipino cuisine, like an outsider's take on our food culture. Funny, entertaining and interesting, so read on...

Matter of Taste 2 by Matthew Sutherland
What's In A Name? This article is the second part of the email I got with the title Matter of Taste by Matthew Sutherland. It tackles the name culture of Filipinos, which I can totally relate to since I, myself, have a doorbell name. This article is really amusing, so read and enjoy!
