Celebrating Filipino Culture and Flavor at the 125th Independence Day Event in Amsterdam
Join us on a delightful journey as we recall the exciting day when Pinoy Kitchen brought the sizzle and flavor of authentic Filipino cuisine to the 125th Independence Day celebration in Halfweg, Amsterdam, Netherlands. Our booth was a hub of deliciousness, offering tender and juicy hotdogs and irresistible crunchy chicharon. The event buzzed with the presence of the Philippines Embassy in The Hague, various Filipino products, and passionate brands. We, at Pinoy Kitchen, were overwhelmed by the incredible support we received, and we can't wait to partner again next year with the Kalayaan Foundation, the organizers of this fantastic event held on June 10th.
