A Delicious Dive into Our Food History!

​Many thanks to everyone who tuned in and joined us in our Throwback Thursday last July 23. Together, we took a mouth-watering look back at the beautiful and rich journey of the Dabawenyo gastronomy.

​Our deepest gratitude goes out to our incredible panel of guests who generously shared their expertise, stories, and passion. Daghang salamat agri-entrepreneur, regenerative agriculture advocate, and cacao champion Lizabel "Wit" Holganza, restaurateur and designer Susan Magno "Tatuts" Antepuesto, and Davao City Tourism Product Development Officer, Accredited Tour Guide, and certified foodie Gracie Plata.

We also want to extend our heartfelt appreciation to our amazing partners who made this event possible: SM City Davao for providing a fantastic venue and snacks, and a special shoutout to Kadangpan Digital and Mindanao Times for providing the multimedia platforms to livestream the episode to our viewers wherever they may be.

The story of our food is the story of our people, and we are so glad we got to share this episode with you all.

Stay tuned to our page and invite your friends to join us for the next Throwback Thursday as we uncover more fascinating stories from our beloved Davao!

Pop culture reflects our evolving understanding of gender. In this week’s Throwback Thursday, we’re unpacking classic tropes from the 80s to the 10s to see exactly how far we’ve come—and how today’s media is finally breaking the mold to embrace fluid identities and realistic representation.

Thank you to everyone who joined us in person and tuned into the livestream for our latest Davao Historical Society Throwback Thursday episode, "Unseen Davao". We had an incredible time diving deep into our rich intangible cultural heritage last May 28 at the ARC Library of La Herencia Davao.

​A massive, heartfelt thank you to our very special guests: Visual artist and 2026 Datu Bago Awardee Lito Pepito, UP Mindanao Assistant Professor Andrea Malaya Ragragio, and fashion designer and PWC Professor Emi-Alexander Englis. Your invaluable insights truly brought the hidden layers of our history to life! We also extend our gratitude to Rhys Lacia of the Institute of Davao Studies, who ably and interestingly moderated the lively discussion.

​DHS TT wouldn't have been possible without our good friend Wilfred Dexter Tanedo of La Herencia Davao Art & Events Pavilion for providing us with such a beautiful venue, and Kadangpang Carlo Doller for streaming the activity live over the Kadangpan Digital Facebook and YouTube channels.

​Missed it? You can still catch the replay on our page and on the Mindanao Times page. See you all on our next Throwback Thursday!
