Ariel del Rosario and Roel Canafranca first started Filistix in the spring of 2008. Having travelled through Asia and Europe, they saw that street food was a huge part of a city's culture. As one of the first food carts in the city, they felt that there was a great opportunity to develop a street food culture in their hometown.
Being proud Filipino Canadians, they naturally gravitated to the cuisine of their heritage. They are strong supporters of local producers and growers and stick to using simple ingredients to make, not only Filipino, but Asian dishes they love to eat themselves.
In 2011, they successfully expanded to both the University of Alberta and Macewan University campuses. With the hopes of changing the way people perceive 'campus' food, they've developed a strong following with students and staff alike who appreciate having a healthy, yet great tasting food option on campus.
At "Learn-To-Cook: Filistix", guests will learn to create an authentic Filipino dish. During this classroom-style cooking demonstration, the chef will talk about using fresh ingredients, show guests the step-by-step process for cooking a dish (details to be determined), and demonstrate cooking techniques. At the end of the session, attendees will get to taste a small sample of the dish created and bring home a recipe card to make the dish at home.
