  • Culinary Class Wars’ Korean Chefs Debut in Manila at Your Local’s Exclusive Pop-Up

    Your Local, known for its innovative culinary experiences, presents its most ambitious event yet: Mat Nam, a three-part pop-up at The Balmori Suites Chef’s Table. This marks the first time chefs from South Korea’s hit show “Culinary Class Wars” will cook in the Philippines, featuring an entirely new, exclusive Balmori menu.

    More than just guest chefs, these are co-creators. Each brings their unique culinary style to create dishes alongside Chef Patrick Go, resulting in a dynamic fusion of cultures, techniques, and flavors.

    The Lineup: Three Unique Rotations, Four Acclaimed Chefs, One Extraordinary Table

    Over several weeks at Mat Nam, the kitchen will transform with three distinct chef rotations. Chef Patrick Go will partner with four standout chefs from “Culinary Class Wars,” each rotation offering a completely new and unmissable dining experience.

    • April 6-23: Go x Lee x Choi – A Powerhouse Trio
      The series opens with Chef Young Sook Lee (Nakyung), celebrated for her refined traditional Korean flavors, and Chef Jihyung Choi (Michelin-recognized Leebukbang), known for his North-South Korean fusion. Combined with Go’s modern flair, expect rich, layered dishes with intense flavors.

    • April 26-May 14: Go x Bang – Modern Korean BBQ Reimagined
      Next, Go collaborates with Kisu Bang (Gitdeun), Korea’s first Michelin-starred head chef. Their partnership will highlight sleek, bold flavors, and creative synergy, focusing on modern Korean BBQ.
    • May 17-June 1: Go x Kim – The Yakitori King’s Grand Finale
      The series concludes with Byung Mook Kim (Yakitori Mook), the “Yakitori King,” known for his mastery of fire and umami. Expect a bold, smoky, and intensely flavorful finale.

    This rotating format? It’s also a first for the Chef’s Table stage.

     

    The Menu: Bold, Inventive, and Exclusively Balmori

    Your Local’s Mat Nam menu is a complete departure from their usual offerings, crafted specifically for this pop-up. Highlights include the MSG (a mantou toast topped with shiitake, gorgonzola, and seaweed), Palabok Rice (a smoky, chicharon-studded twist on the Filipino classic), and River Prawns, torched with mentaiko and bathed in soy brown butter. Save room for dessert—the Choco na Gatas v2, featuring burnt milk ice cream and chocolate mousse.

    Chef Lee presents Chicken Gangjeong, crispy chicken glazed in a sweet-spicy syrup with a blend of spices for a perfect balance of flavors. Chef Choi offers Maekjeokgui, a 1,000-year-old grilled pork dish marinated in fermented soybean paste and spices for a smoky, umami-rich flavor. These are just a few standout dishes—every item on the menu hits the mark. Expect even more exclusive creations with each chef’s rotation.

  • ASAMÍN by Metiz: Reinventing the Filipino Panciteria at the Balmori Suites Chef’s Table

    For Filipinos, pancit is more than just a meal—it’s a tradition, a staple, and a celebration in itself. Whether for birthdays, fiestas, or everyday meals, noodles tell stories of home and shared moments. ASAMÍN: A Panciteria by Metiz reimagines the classic panciteria, infusing it with the inventive spirit that has made Metiz a household name in modern Filipino dining.

    Running from January 29 to March 25, 2025, ASAMÍN finds its home at The Balmori Suites Chef’s Table, offering an experience that feels both familiar and refreshingly new.

     

    A Bold Take on Tradition

    For Chef Stephan Duhesme, the driving force behind Metiz, stepping into the world of pancit was an intentional choice. “We wanted to bring something that didn’t quite exist yet—a panciteria that doesn’t just replicate, but reinterprets,” he shares. With Metiz known for its contemporary take on Filipino flavors, ASAMÍN allows the team to strip things back to the essentials, focusing on technique, tradition, and flavor.

    Chef Stephan Duhesme of Metiz.

    But why not just bring Metiz itself into the space? For Chef Stephan, comfort is never the goal. “I don’t like stagnancy. I believe in turning the page, in constantly improving and evolving—not just as a restaurant, but as a concept,” he explains. With Metiz undergoing renovations, the pop-up serves as both a creative playground and a proof of concept, exploring what else the team can do beyond the Metiz experience.

     

    The Menu: Pancit and Beyond

    At ASAMÍN, food is meant to be shared—the Filipino way. The menu highlights five reimagined pancit dishes, including Espaghetti Malabon, a playful take swapping thick noodles for spaghetti coated in tamarillo ketchup, Malabon sauce, and cheese—a tribute to Metiz’s head chef and his family recipes.

    Espaghetti Malabon and Beef Mami Deluxe.

    Beyond pancit, the menu brings a fresh take on Filipino comfort food: Ubod a la Carlo – sourdough-infused pancake wrapper, stuffed with ubod and anchovy dressing. Longganisa ni Ser Raph – homemade longganisa, served with greens and vinegar sauce. Kawali ni Kev – crispy pork kawali, paired with Metiz liver sauce, radish, and fresh salad.

    Ubod a la Carlo and Longganisa ni Ser Raph.

    Every dish is an invitation to play with flavors. Just as Filipinos instinctively reach for calamansi, patis, or chili to tweak their meals to their liking, guests are encouraged to mix and match sauces, toppings, and sides to create their ideal pancit. The result? A dish that is both deeply personal and true to the Filipino dining experience—one that is convivial, adaptable, and rooted in sharing.

    ASAMÍN: A Panciteria by Metiz is available for a limited time at The Balmori Suites Chef’s Table from January 29 to March 25, 2025. Don’t miss the chance to experience Filipino comfort food, reimagined in a way only Metiz can deliver.
