Filipino pride in culture, arts and food is everywhere which is why it inspired couple Gerwyn and Sheryl See to come up with a way to preserve it by showcasing the best of the Philippines through 7107 Culture + Cuisine.
Project 7107, the company behind 7107 Culture + Cuisine, is a collaboration between Treston International College and MASE Investments Inc. Developed as a real-life and industry-based learning platform for Tourism, Hospitality, and Culinary Students of Treston, the restaurant aims to create and nurture cultural and heritage appreciation as they are poised for global hospitality practice.
The restaurant shows the richness of Filipino culture and cuisine through its four different food sections: Kanto, Dampa, Talyasi, and Himagas.
Kanto
Under Kanto, customers will get to enjoy snacks such as Spinach and Goat Cheese Lumpia, Sisig Nachos, Malunggay Pestocino , and Chori Burger Sliders. A visit to the restaurant wouldn't be complete without ordering #WhenInPH where you'll see a few Filipino street food favorites like fishballs, squid balls, kikiam, kropek, dynamite lumpia and kwek-kwek (fried quail eggs covered in an orange batter).
Dampa
The dishes under Dampa will take diners to an under-the-sea food adventure that will have them craving for more. Some must-try dishes include Bangus Caesar Salad, #VitaminSea Chowder, and Bangus Sisig Flipside.
Talyasi
Talyasi or a huge metal pot symbolizes special occasions through its menu which boast of all-time Pinoy favorites giving them twists like their one-of-a-kind Tonkatsu Bicol Express, fork-tender Bulalo and a unique Chocolate Binagoongan.
They also have an interesting lineup of All Day Breakfast which includes the Red Rice Champorado, Eggs Benedict.PH and Pinoy Pancakes which are bibingka-inspired pancakes with dried mangoes, salted eggs and maple syrup.
Himagas
Filipinos are known for their sweet tooth! A meal will not be complete without dessert or Himagas. Under this food outlet, customers can indulge in sweet treats like their twist to the usual Maja Blanca dessert which uses Carabao's milk for a soft and silky texture topped with corn and pinipig for some crunch. The Molten Pastillas Lava Cake is every sweet tooth's dream, classic molten lava cake that's soft and moist but with creamy pastillas at the center of it.
After enjoying a flavorful meal at 7107, customers can also check out the treats from the Sari Sari Depot which promotes homegrown retail brands such as farmed wooden products, healthy chips, dips and jams, and artisanal chocolates.
The hip and cool 7107 Culture + Cuisine will serve as a space dedicated to local artists from various industries so they can showcase their talents and contribute in their own way towards creating a sense of local pride for every Filipino. Currently, it showcases the wall art by glocal illustrator Daryl Feril, whose works have been featured by luxury brands around the world.
