World Food Expo 2011

Last Saturday, we went to the World Food Expo 2011 (WOFEX) at the SMX Convention Center, Mall of Asia. The food show ran from August 3-6, 2011. It was the last day of the food event so we checked what it was all about. The WOFEX is mainly for the food & beverage (F&B) industry where they can source their supplies from the event exhibitors.

I am not in the F&B industry but was just plain interested to check the new products in the market. And who wouldn’t like the free tastes offered by the various booths?!

In conjunction with the exhibit, there were also culinary competitions, cooking shows, pastry and cake exhibits, and seminars.


Jurassic cake.. why not?

We also spotted PBA player Alvin Patrimonio cooking!

There were lots of food booths offering free food samples. I especially loved the mantau, stuffed paratha, and tofu pandan from the Malaysian booths. 

Some products are sold cheaper here compared in the supermarkets, so might as well take advantage of the promotion.

And we met cute and interesting characters like Clyde while going around , a certified US angus beef..hehe

Clyde, are you a cow or a goat??
So next time you hear about a food expo in Manila, let me know!
