So, it’s a Filipino-produced original Netflix series,&quot; she explained. </p><p>&quot;It’s a celebration not just of family, friends or love but us Filipinos will be celebrating the Filipino food that we (eat) each day. And when other countries watch the series, they will also feel it when they see it,&quot; she added. </p><p>Netflix produced the show in association with CS Studios and Project8.</p>
