By | What's New at Rustan's, Yummy! | 3 Comments

I go crazy whenever I pass by the SPICES section at Rustan’s.  I wish I could buy all the kinds of spices that I see there.

 Tita Nena, Tita Glenda, Bettina, Gil, and Tanya set up their own dining tables by mixing and matching different items from Rustan’s Home.  Each is refelective of their personalities and of course promoting Philippine products.  It is all about BEING TRULY PROUD TO BE FILIPINO!

 

Tita Nena said that she takes this inspiration from her family dining at Subic.  Since she has many grandkids, it is easier for them to sit on the floor.

Tita Glenda did not do a table setting but she presented Filipino food in a unique way.

Tita Conchitina talks about her book and shows some pages.   She said that whenever she would entertain to her foreign guests while in Spain, they would notice the Filipiniana touches.  And she stresses the fact that it is not hard to add the touches as they are all available in our country.  It is a matter of mixing and matching and adding your personal touch.   Even the Philippine Embassy in Spain, she says that it is the most unique looking one as it is very reflective of our country as everything inside is Filipino.  The book shows the photos of the Philippine Embassy in Spain, Dining set ups and Filipino recipes by some Filipinas and even Philippine fashion.
