Gordon Ramsay visited the Philippines last January 19 for a whirlwind three-day trip to check on his first ever restaurant in the country, Gordon Ramsay Bar & Grill, which opened last August 2024. We asked him what surprised and intrigued him the most. #EsquirePHVideo

00:00I'm so excited to be here in the Philippines. It means a lot. I think it's one of the sort of
00:03sleeping beauties of Asia. Some of the best restaurants in some of the most exciting
00:08cities in the world are Filipino. I love the regional diversity of Filipino cuisine as well.
00:14And then you've got the complexity, you know, the acid, the vinegar, the fish stews, the marinades.
00:22Filipino cuisine for me now can equally sit alongside Thai, Southeast Asia. I've been a big
00:29lover of Korean, Vietnamese, and Filipino cuisine now is ranked certainly in that top five.
