The search is over. Hard-to-find gourmet food items are now available at the Eastwood Mall. Over two dozen home-based specialty food shops line up the Eastwood Mall Weekend Gourmet Market, which opened last April 24. Pastries, cakes, rare gourmet cooking ingredients, fine liquor that were known before only through word of mouth or online stores, have found a home that their loyal buyers can go to regularly.
“Aside from showcasing these novelty items, the Eastwood Mall Weekend Gourmet Market also gives local entrepreneurs a chance to showcase their homemade products,” said Kevin L. Tan, Megaworld Corporation commercial division head.
From spices to sweets, greens to pates, this gourmet market is sure to match every taste bud’s preference. The health conscious will surely appreciate the lettuce, celery, and other greens sold at Dew Sri’s Aeroponic Vegetables. Cultivated using the Aeroponic System, these vegetables are grown in containers filled with flowing plant nutrition—the best oxygenation and moisture condition—allowing a better and more balanced nutrition assimilation.
Cake, chocolate, and cookie corners will, of course, be present, with Filipinos’ natural penchant for sweets. Connoisseurs will enjoy the nut-filled butter cookies sold at the Russian Cookie House, while the more adventurous taste buds will be intrigued with the distinctive taste of Anatolia Cuisine’s Turkish pastries. Bringing out the kid in everyone are Candy Cakes’ sweet concoctions inspired by the world’s most loved candy bars such as Reese’s peanut butter chocolate cheesecake, Ferrero tart, Snickers cake, and S’mores cheesecake.
To-go meals are some of the market’s prized finds. Avid customers line-up to have their taste of Farm N’ Deli’s pre-cooked authentic paella and special smoked fish. Moms also love the home-made bottled sauces and spreads of Garden Kitchen such as bilimbi vinaigrette, lima bean pate, and basil-pili pesto.With this assortment, there’s no need to go to great lengths to find the food items you’ve been looking for because home-made gourmet is now within reach.
