The word “Kamayan” literally means to eat with your hands for Filipinos. They often eat this old-school way for big celebrations, while on holiday, or just to pay homage to their cultural history.

Not only in the Philippines but all across South East Asia, eating with hands is a culture still happening today, at home and at hawker stalls all over the region. What better way to keep your hands clean and sanitised before you dive into a meal “Kamayan” style.
