Stars Galore for Filipino Cuisine!
Episode 1
Tuesday, 17 February, 2026
Carmina and Patch's digestive juices overflowed during their exploration of the Michelin Guide's inaugural visit to the Philippines. They chat about the Guide's surprising origin story, why its stars are considered by some as the culinary world's most coveted honor (although they will talk about why some chefs are resisting this notion!) and explore how a single distinction can transform a restaurant’s journey—both positively and negatively. Just as importantly, they talk about the controversies that shadow the Guide and discuss perspectives on how to celebrate this milestone with both pride and mindfulness.Learn more: Why Michelin Guide PH matters — and what it means for Filipino chefs, culture, The MICHELIN Guide Manila and Environs & Cebu Bib Gourmand 2026 Selection, The inaugural Michelin Guide Philippines is the beginning—not the endpoint—of important food conversations, Michelin Guide Philippines, and first lap honors, and PODCASTS: Over Seasoned Podcast and The Halo-Halo Show.
