The family thought of giving food packs to front-liners of a nearby hospital, UST, where most of their student-customers come from, offering what they do best—cooking.
Food for front-liners
“We thought of giving back, somehow … [W]e’ve been here since 2006 and mostly our customers are from UST. It was our treat, at first, and when I posted it on Facebook, it trended,” said Reggie, who coordinates with possible sponsors of their food drives and handles their funds. Small businesses and big corporations, such as Mega Corp., NutriAsia and Del Monte Corp., have reached out to the eatery to give donations. Encouraging messages and monetary donations from friends and customers have inspired the family to continue their mission.
