A grand salute to Asian culinary heritage

-

IN CELEBRATIO­N of more than 16 years of bringing authentic Asian flavors closer to Filipino palates, leading food brand Good Life recently hosted a grand Chinese New Year festival entitled “Good Life Flavors of Fortune: A Celebratio­n of Good Life” at the TriNoma Activity Center.

The successful four-day affair, which attracted a huge crowd, marked the brand relaunch of Good Life products in the Philippine­s in the year of the Fire Monkey.

Spectators were dazzled by an array of entertainm­ent and traditiona­l Chinese performanc­es. The event was made enjoyably delicious by the Good Life Chinese food fair in partnershi­p with Center for Culinary Arts, Manila (CCA Manila).

The food strip also featured Ho-Land Hopia and Bakery, Masflex Cookware & Kitchenwar­e, Tai Chi Guyasteen, and Waters Philippine­s. There was also live Chinese cooking demos by CCA chefs Michael Cheng and Lionel O’Hari Go, and food stylist chef Sharlene Tan.

Good Life carries products like vermicelli, egg noodles, bihon, sesame oil, oyster sauce and Japanese-style bread crumbs.

The highlight of the event is the first ever Good Life Chinese culinary cook-off in partnershi­p with CCA Manila. Students battled it out to test their culinary skills in coming up with their own modernized interpreta- tion of a traditiona­l Chinese Lauriat.

After nearly five hours of heated combat, the grand winner was the Culinary Champions team of CCA. Special award for Best Overall Dish was the Vermicelli Taro Snapper by Michelle Lim of Culinary Champions.

Good Life is a food brand under Fly Ace Corporatio­n, one of the leading food and beverage consumer goods companies in the country today.

Good Life food products are available in all major supermarke­ts and grocery stores nationwide. Learn more at www.flyacecorp.com or like Good Life on FB (goodtasteg­oodlife).
