GORGY RULA: “I don’t want to answer that,” nakangiting sagot ni Erwan Heussaff nang tinanong kung kailan na nilang balak na magka-baby ni Anne Curtis.
Pormal na inilunsad si Erwan bilang Buhay Carinderia… Redefined content creator ng Tourism Promotions Board kahapon, April 11.
Nabanggit niyang ang arroz caldo ang carinderia food na paboritong kainin nila ni Anne.
Sinundan siya ng tanong kung yun din kaya ang paglilihian ng kanyang asawa.
Ngumiti na lang ang Filipino-French chef at food blogger, at hindi na siya sumagot.
Sabi lang niya, “Carinderia food is really the recommendation, it’s not street food.
"It’s home-cooked food presented in a very humble settings.
"I think that’s the strength of that local dishes.”
Masaya lang daw siya nang pinili itong Content Creator ng Buhay Carinderia…Redefined dahil marami pa raw siyang gustong matutunan sa mga pagkain natin lalo na ang mga lutong mula sa iba’t-ibang lalawigan ng bansa.
“I was really happy,” pakli ni Erwan.
“Last year I did the show called Aborigines. It’s basically for the US market. It’s all about local ati tribes, local provinces, how they eat, how they hunt, how they fish.
“In that really sparked my passion to really push our country in terms of trying to make people and give international viewers a reason to come to the Philippines because I love this country so much.
“So when they chose me, I was really happy…they can give me access to the places where I wouldn’t necessarily be able to talk to people and showcase truly the food I love,” dagdag niyang pahayag.
Sa pag-iikot niya sa iba’t ibang bahagi ng bansa, gusto pa raw sanang matutunan ni Erwan ang mga luto sa Mindanao.
“I need to learn more about Mindanao and Maranaw cuisine.
“I feel like everyone in the country doesn’t have enough access information or exposure to Mindanao cuisine and I would love in 2018, 2019 to be the year that kinda expose us up and people come up with those dishes and will learn more from them,” saad ni Erwan.
JERRY OLEA: So, itong Buhay Carinderia ang kapalit ng Madrid Fusion ngayong Abril?
Sabi ng aming gorgeous source, “Iba naman yun. Hindi napag-usapan sa presscon ang Madrid Fusion.
“Pagkatapos magsalita ni Cesar Montano, kaagad siyang umalis at hindi na nagpa-interview.”
At any rate, kabahagi ang Pilipinas ng 40 iba pang bansa sa World Disco Soup Day.
Gaganapin ito sa Abril 28 nang 4:00-9:00 PM sa Atrium ng Enderun Colleges sa Taguig City.
In a nutshell, it’s a pop-up disco party where you eat and dance TO FIGHT FOOD WASTE!
Libre ang entrance dito.
“Inipon namin ang ‘rock star chefs’ para magluto ng mga produce na donated ng farmers,” sabi ni Chef Jam Melchor.
Kalahok din dito sina Margarita Fores, Robby Goco, Tatung Sarthou, Waya Araos Wijangco, Nino Laus, Jonas Ng, Jac Laudico at Kalel Chan.
Meron pang DJs, artists, mga mang-aawit at mga makata.
Magkatuwang dito ang Slow Food Philippines at Slow Food Youth Network, at suportado ito ng Department of Agriculture.
GORGY RULA: Sa totoo lang, marami ang nag-aabang kay Cesar para tanungin tungkol sa isyung yun pero umiwas na lang muna siya para hindi na maligaw ang focus sa event na yun.
Mas gusto nilang dito muna sa Buhay Carinderia… Redefined ang pag-uusapan dahil sisimulan na raw nilang iikot ito sa mga probinsiya para ma-introduce ito, lalo na sa mga baguhang chef na may angking talento sa pagluluto.
Malaki raw ang expectations nila rito.
Bahagi ng speech ni Cesar kahapon, “I expect ‘Buhay Carinderia…Redefined’ event to allow the people behind the carinderia, wherever they may be located, to have a chance to showcase their talents to a wider audience.
"We will become witness to the discovery of these noteworthy creations that celebrate the vibrant vibe of their town or city."
