Flavor Nation Festival 2019 by McCormick

It was my 2^nd year to visit the annual Mccormick event, it was their 5^th this year. Last year, Mccormick brings the flavor of East Asia to Life with the star of the event, the Agemono Fry Set (tonkatsu, tempura, and karaage) and the Dipping Set (Sweet Chili, Teriyaki, Tonkatsu, and Sriracha).  Took home some of these new products and my son love the Dipping set very much. Mccormick never stops to think of new product line to offer to theur valued customers.

McCormick Flavor Nation Festival is an annual event that celebrates good food and good flavor. Admission is free. There were live cooking demos by enterprising home cooks, food tastings, and various food and drinks for sale.

In this year’s theme, “Feast of Flavorful Finds”, McCormick partnered with local farmers, Session Groceries and Down to Earth,  to promote the use of fresh and sustainable produce in kitchens across the Philippines.

There’s cooking demos too.  Hindy Weber, showed us how to create a dish that makes use of ingredients all available at our local market. Sabrina Artadi shares how she cooks her Instant Pot recipe. It's filled with soothing spices such as rosemary leaves, turmeric, and thyme to help uplift your mood when you need it most. Chef Tenten and celebrity cook Xandra Rocha cooked their version of grilled sinigang chicken, crispy binagoongan, and spicy caldereta.

McCormick Food Trucks provided samples of dishes cooked tastefully and flavorfully with McCormick herb and spices, Karaage, Teriyaki, Tempura… etc. And there’s a healthy smoothie samples as well, made especially tasty with Mccormick spices.

Hand-picked food concessionaires were also present selling Chinese, Japanese, American, Indian, Keto, Organic, … etc, healthy and delicious food products. You can never go wrong buying from them and from McCormick Avenue because part of the proceeds will go to the Missionaries of the Poor.

Not to be left out are the kids whom mommy and daddy tagged along with them. They enjoyed the kid’s corner fun-filled with events and treats made especially for them. The event was really well-thought off, designed for the entire family.

I flavored my Sunday despite of coming from an overnight birthday celebration, and I did the right choice. McCormick continue to put flavor to our dishes..... Thank you McCormick and NolliSoli.ph.  See you at McCormick Flavor Nation 2020!
