<\/p>\nWith the holiday season coming up, parties and reunions are popping in from left to right. In a Filipino setting, holidays are usually a time for the family to gather and bond.<\/p>\n
In these gatherings, food becomes a central element, bringing families closer together as members bring their own specialties to the table.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The potluck format in Filipino gatherings is not new. In fact, this is usually practiced in get-togethers\u00a0where guests contribute a homecooked dish to be shared by the entire party.<\/p>\n
However, there are situations where preparing and cooking food for a potluck becomes impossible due to time constraints or when you just can’t make up your mind on what to bring.<\/p>\n
Fret not because here is a rundown of establishments in the metro\u00a0offering various party trays and catering services for your woes!<\/p>\n
