About this event

Eat.Talk.Connect.®: A Filipino Boodle Fight Experience 🇵🇭🍚 invites you to share a meal, stories, and conversation rooted in Filipino traditions. Taste classic dishes, hear the meanings behind them, and learn how food carries history, memory, and community. This month, we’re gathering around a shared banana-leaf spread for an authentic Filipino boodle fight prepared by Tambayan Grill.

This Culture Encounters gathering supports our mission to build genuine cross-cultural understanding. Come with curiosity, leave with new connections, and help create a space where diverse cultures are seen, heard, and celebrated.

Join us for Circle & Sip, guided conversation designed to bridge backgrounds and spark genuine connection, followed by a boodle fight, a Filipino tradition of eating a shared feast of rice, grilled meats and seafood by hand, laid out together on banana leaves, alongside cultural storytelling.

Come curious. Leave nourished, connected, and with a deeper appreciation for Filipino culture and community.
