Mana Pulutan - the Filipino Heritage Food in small plates...
The Mana PULUTAN Concept:
Celebrating the Filipino Culture of Sharing and Bonding
In the heart of Filipino culture lies the value of sharing and bonding over food. The concept of "fiesta" (feasting) and "salusalo" (gathering) is deeply ingrained in the Filipino way of life. It's about coming together, sharing stories, and enjoying delicious food with loved ones. Mana PULUTAN, a innovative food concept introduced by Coconut Chef Ninang Riza Matibag Muyot, Founder of CocoKusina, Mana Kitchen & Shambala Silang, brings this spirit to life in a modern and exciting way.
