Spiral, the Philippine's best food destination is taking you up a notch this Mothers Day as they celebrate it with you on May 13th, 2014. They will showcase products made by the finest female weavers from Ilocos Norte properly called Abel Iloco. It's something that has been drawn in that region since 1572. The designs will be done by Ryan Madamba, a noted fashion and wedding gown designer who hails from Ilocos. It'll be a luxurious showcase of resort and evening wear so you better get your eyes treated to some of the Philippines best designs.
Aside from that...
Spiral's very own Chefs and Master Chefs have prepared their heirloom recipes, some of which have been passed on from generation to generation. It doesn't go authentic than this! Just look at what they shelled out from their family pantrys!
