For Bennet Miemban-Ganata, owner of a popular Filipino restaurant in Vancouver, the arrival of spring signaled the start of the season of “Fiesta," bringing both good business and a celebration of culture.
From Filipino Restaurant Month in April to Filipino Heritage Month in June, there would be colorful clothes, folk dances and traditional food like crispy lumpia, marinated and grilled pork belly, and beef stew. And of course, there would be togetherness for Vancouver's rapidly growing Filipino community.
