“Maricel's Kitchen stands as New Jersey's premier Filipino culinary experience destination in East Brunswick, founded in 2017 by acclaimed Chef Maricel Gentile who learned cooking from her lola (grandmother) in Manila and built a distinguished 30+ year culinary career in New York City's finest five-star establishments. This unique establishment operates simultaneously as a Filipino restaurant featuring Friday Night Kamayan Tower Feasts and weekend Filipino brunch, a hands-on cooking school teaching Filipino and Pan-Asian cuisines, and a bespoke catering service for private events and corporate gatherings. Featured on Food Network, PBS's A Table for All with Buki, Hulu, and author of Maricel's Simply Asian Cookbook, Chef Gentile created a culinary experience destination at 111 Main Street that welcomes thousands annually to discover authentic Filipino and Asian flavors through interactive cooking classes, exclusive Chef's Table dinners with guest chefs, and intimate dining experiences including the signature Kamayan Tower-a stunning tiered display of scratch-made Filipino dishes served exclusively for each party. The menu showcases Chef Gentile's lola's recipes including chicken adobo, beef caldereta, tinola, sinigang, and specialty items like crispy shrimp balls and grilled pompano, many adaptable for gluten-free diets upon request. With weekend Filipino brunch featuring three-tier Brunch Towers ($59.95 for two people) and lighter platos, plus the traditional Kamayan Feast served on banana leaves for hands-on communal dining, Maricel's Kitchen fulfills Chef Gentile's mission to make Filipino cuisine part of everyday dining conversations alongside Italian, Mexican, and Thai, while honoring her lola's legacy by sharing authentic family recipes with new generations.”

“Kamayan ATL has transformed from beloved pop-up to one of Atlanta's most celebrated Filipino restaurants since 2018, earning Michelin Guide recognition and expansion plans that reflect its serious fanbase. Founded by owners Mia Orino and Carlo Gan who yearned to share Filipino food the way their nanay (mother) made it, Kamayan operates on Buford Highway's Asian Square with tropical island decor and tight but homey table arrangements that create bustling, authentic atmosphere. The name 'kamayan'-Tagalog for 'by hand'-references the traditional Filipino communal dining style, and the restaurant offers both traditional boodle fight feasts (which must be pre-booked) and individual family-style ordering. Reservations are essential as crowds signal arrival at this James Beard-recognized establishment. The menu balances Filipino classics with regional specialties, featuring perfectly prepared sinigang with tender pork ribs in tamarind broth, crispy lumpia always a hit, impressive kare-kare with beef and essential bagoong side, sizzling sisig, lechon kawali, and spectacular whole fried pompano. Kamayan's efficiency from pop-up days translates to restaurant operations pumping out delicious food quickly while maintaining quality. The restaurant partners with local Filipino bakery Hapag for desserts including halo-halo with spectacular toppings. With plans for expansion including beer and wine license and additional space for supporting other pop-ups, Kamayan ATL represents Filipino cuisine's growing prominence in Atlanta's diverse food scene.”
