A Kamayan feast is more than just a meal. It´s an immersive, communal experience that invites participants to engage with Filipino culture through the hoy of shared food.

​

Derived from the Filipino word "kamay", meaning hand, Kamayan Feasts are traditionally eaten without utensils, allowing diners to connect directly with their food and each other.

​

As guests gather around the table, the atmosphere is one of the camaraderie and celebration. Eating with hands, is not just practical but also symbolic, fostering a sense of unity and shared enjoyment. The tactile experience of picking up food, mixing flavours and savoring each bite adds a layer of intimacy and connection that utensils can´t replicate.
