It was merely hobby and passion until Anthony Bourdain’s “No Reservations” noticed how well-researched his entries were and got in touch with the “Marketman.”</p><div class="embed-wrap"><figure data-feedback="fb:likes,fb:comments"><img src="http://sa.kapamilya.com/absnews/abscbnnews/media/2018/news/06/23/binamira.jpeg"/></figure></div><p>Binamira is the Cebuano who cooked lechon for the late Bourdain using the ingredients and ways his grandmother used. Bourdain declared it the “best pig ever!” which would become the perfect tagline for Binamira’s lechon restaurant chain, Zubuchon. </p><p>Like Binamira, Anglo, the popular chef of the restaurant chain Sarsa which specializes in Negrense favorites, is from the Visayas. He did culinary studies at the Le Cordon Bleu in Australia. </p><figure class="op-interactive"><div id="IVS_ABS_Body_Video_1_Container"> <ivs-player id="IVS_ABS_Body_Video_1" data-ivs-spid="3001339" data-ivs-key="e8c22c015ca9eafa76f1e3edfa03c603" data-ivs-vid="1430536" data-ivs-floating="1"></ivs-player> <script src="https://player.ivideosmart.com/ivsplayer/v4/dist/js/iframe-parent.js"></script> <script src="https://player.ivideosmart.com/ivsplayer/v4/dist/js/loader.js"></script> </div></figure><div class="iwantbar">Watch more in <a href="~//www.iwantv.com.ph/">iWantv</a> or <a href="~//tfc.tv/">TFC.tv</a></div><p>While already running two restaurants in Bacolod, the chef was discovered by the staff of ABS-CBN who were then looking to complete their panel of chef judges for the Philippine edition of Master Chef. </p><p>The TV stint would give Anglo the confidence to play with the big boys in Manila: he opened Sarsa, which is now six branches strong. <br/> <br/>In the maiden episode of “Show Me The Market”, Binamira and Anglo visit Coron where they hone in on cashew nuts, treated locally as a snack or delicacy, and seaweed, a major export to Manila but curiously not consumed by those farming them. </p><figure class="op-interactive"><div id="IVS_ABS_Body_Video_2_Container"> <ivs-player id="IVS_ABS_Body_Video_2" data-ivs-spid="3001339" data-ivs-key="e8c22c015ca9eafa76f1e3edfa03c603" data-ivs-vid="1430538" data-ivs-floating="1"></ivs-player> <script src="https://player.ivideosmart.com/ivsplayer/v4/dist/js/iframe-parent.js"></script> <script src="https://player.ivideosmart.com/ivsplayer/v4/dist/js/loader.js"></script> </div></figure><div class="iwantbar">Watch more in <a href="~//www.iwantv.com.ph/">iWantv</a> or <a href="~//tfc.tv/">TFC.tv</a></div><p>In putting a new spin to these, they hope the locals themselves will be able to enjoy and savor what is right at their backyard. </p><p>Ultimately, the duo encounters not just ingredients in this new show, but the human faces – from farmers and fishermen to hawkers and cooks – that form the lifeblood of Filipino cuisine. </p><p>Binamira shares that in shedding light on new ways to use local ingredients, the hosts hope to help elevate Filipino cuisine and appreciation for it.</p><p>“Show Me the Market” airs every Saturday, 10:30PM at ANC-X, the new lifestyle block of the ABS-CBN News Channel (ANC) and on Sundays, 7PM at the Metro Channel.</p>
