Cuisine – The soft messenger of cultural diplomacy

More than just a feast for the taste buds, the two-week culinary festival between the Philippines and Korea is also an opportunity for cultural exchange between countries, between Vietnamese people and international friends. This is also an opportunity for people and tourists to better understand the lifestyle, culinary philosophy and community values ​​that each culture carries.

Food festivals are proof that food can erase borders and bring people closer together. From Korean chopsticks to Filipino spoons, from the salty taste of the ocean to the sweetness of the tropics, all blend together to create a symphony called "connection".

When "kimchi" meets "halo-halo", when "bulgogi" comes together with "adobo", it is not just a culinary feast, but an understanding and respect between cultures. Food is not just for eating, but for remembering, for understanding and for loving. And festivals like this are where stories are told with spices, with smiles and with empathy across borders.
