Family heirloom recipes can possess greater value than any material treasure. They are, after all, a symbol of family traditions and a link to our cultural heritage, passed down from one generation to another. This is what makes up Fely J’s Kitchen in Makati<\/strong>, a restaurant that honors Felicidad de Jesus-Cruz’ treasured recipes<\/strong>!<\/p>\n

Felicidad or Fely J<\/strong> is the mother of Larry J. Cruz<\/strong>, the founder of the LJC Restaurant Group that houses Filipino favorite restaurants such as Ab\u00e9 <\/strong>and Lorenzo’s Way<\/strong>. Her recipes are inspired by her many travels and showcase her personal touch, described as “fresh, natural, and attractive”. This allows diners to experience authentic Filipino flavors passed down through generations.<\/p>\n
