They’ve all been part and participants of the country’s biggest and most delicious benefit food fair – Best Food Forward!

Now having reached a milestone as it stages its 5^th year, this much-awaited annual event is happening on 10-11 October 2015, from 10am to 8pm at the Rockwell Tent in Makati City. A well-loved celebration of food, Best Food Forward has continuously gathered family, friends and the bustling culinary industry over the years, promising much more since its launch in the summer of 2011. A grand and fun food-filled weekend awaits and to celebrate this milestone, there will be over 100 specialty food concessionaires, innovative cooking demonstrations, celebrity chef appearances, family and children’s attractions, celebrity guests and many more!

Best Food Forward also happily continues to give newcomers an avenue to be discovered in the bustling food scene. Its vibe and atmosphere will definitely make this 5^th year even livelier as it is spiced up with food art, recipe book launches, special awardings and lively music!

Yummy Frozen balls 🙂  and meatballs!! by Nina Co!  They sell the frozen ones and in BFF they will have the cooked ones as well 🙂

 So happy to see Rafa Ayuyao of Three Hungry Tummies – the guy behind the famous Bacon Cracklets and Tapa chips.

Now he has Chori Crisps, Bangus Skin fritters and the latest is Corned beef Crunch which is like Ropa Vieja

Natalia’s Rustic Kitchen – Arianne Romualdez is the one in the photo and she is the mom of Natalia 🙂  They named it after her.  And the chef is the husband 🙂  Two dishes –  Meat Loaf and Beef Tangine – in the photo 🙂

 Meet the youngest vendor of the Best Food Forward event – Sabine Katigbak who is the daughter of our friend Mark and Anne Katigbak.   She is an ice skater and since she got injured she looked for something else to do and so her baked goodies were born! My most favorite is her Super Chewy Milo Cookie! She has Matcha White Chocolate cookies, S’mores cookies, Gluten free carrot cake and Gluten free Banana Walnut Chocolate Chip Bread. She also makes Macarons! Please support her

Chef Carmela Villegas who is a Pastry Chef and is one of the owners of Crisp on 28th with her fruitcake, Chocolate Crepe and Marshmallow Calamansi cake

 Remember the spiked brownies ( Cerveza Negra, Black Label and Don Papa Rum ) from the Brownie Bar  from the Best Food Forward Store on top? Here are the owners Joby Provido ( the quality controller 🙂 ) and Jomel Salas ( baker and cake decorator) who also owns Cupcake Library and does custom cakes .  They even have droppers of the liquor in case you want to spike it some more! 

Chef Arnold with his bottled foods.  He will be having three kinds of paella for the show and one of them is the Tinapa Paella which makes use of one of his bestsellers, Spicy Tinapa 🙂

Love the Kesong Puti!  I have not tried the others yet

 So happy to meet Audrey Ty of the Gelato Lab. She is also the cousin of Tim Yap!! 🙂    I asked her what her bestselling flavor was and she said Dark Chocolate. Though I liked all! Bailey’s Irish Cream, Coffee Stracciatella, Matcha choco chip and the Mango pudding ( which has coconut in it though it reminds me of Crepes Samurai)
