The Culinary Historians of the Philippines (CHOP) is a non-profit sister organization of the Culinary Historians of Washington, D.C. (CHoWDC). We are not historians in the academic or scholarly sense; we are students of culinary history who want to give back to society through culinary-based programs. Our mission: To study, promote, and help preserve the history and heritage of Philippine cuisine and culinary customs/traditions; to implement advocacy programs; and to study the cuisines of other countries. [Your comments on our posts are most welcome.]
A
unique tour tailor-made by CHOP member Chef Melissa Oreta just for CHOP, the
group went from one stop to the next in tricycles (on account of the small
roads). Morning assembly was at the Baroque San Bartolome Church which was
built in 1564.
