"Basic culinary skills are easily learnt from school, but what Bruce has is a gift that has been acquired along with his own life story, a gift about being able to guide, mentor and nurture interested talents, and most importantly, the gift of magnanimously sharing his passion.
"There are not that many books on Philippine food and it is still an exciting culture waiting to be explored. I wish Bruce great success with this wonderful book and I hope readers will take the time to try some of his recipes they are original, interesting and more essentially, delicious!"
