MASARAP (BLASTA BOOKS) (HB)

Richie Castillo is the chef behind Bahay (meaning ‘home’), a Filipino pop-up restaurant in Dublin that he started and runs with his partner, Alex O'Neill. Masarap (meaning ‘tasty’) is the exploration of Filipino food through an Irish cultural lens and a way to introduce more people to the food of the Philippines, which is hugely underrepresented. You'll find classic dishes such as adobo, a range of exciting Filipino dishes and playful recipes with Filipino flavours that highlight his experience growing up eating Filipino food with Irish ingredients.
