Filipino cuisine rightly deserves its space and recognition on the global stage. No longer to be overlooked. We chat with Nicole Ponseca and Miguel Trinidad on changing the conversation about Filipino food. We talk about how they've brought Filipino cuisine into the American mainstream with their NYC restaurants Maharlika and Jeepney, and their continued mission to give Filipino food a seat at the culinary table with their new cookbook "I Am A Filipino".
