By Panay News -Monday, January 6, 2025&#13;
SHARING ILONGGOS’ CULINARY GEM. Iloilo City’s Mayor Jerry P. Treñas proudly hands out copies of the city’s gastronomy book as a token to visitors at the City Mayor’s Office. The book is available for sale on a softbound or hardbound copy through the Iloilo Festivals Foundation Inc. (IFFI) office at the Iloilo Freedom Grandstand Lounge, Muelle Loney St., Iloilo City.&#13;
SHARING ILONGGOS’ CULINARY GEM. Iloilo City’s Mayor Jerry P. Treñas proudly hands out copies of the city’s gastronomy book as a token to visitors at the City Mayor’s Office. The book is available for sale on a softbound or hardbound copy through the Iloilo Festivals Foundation Inc. (IFFI) office at the Iloilo Freedom Grandstand Lounge, Muelle Loney St., Iloilo City.&#13;
&#13;
ILOILO City – This southern city, now in its second year as a UNESCO Creative City of Gastronomy, continues to shine in the headlines of the country’s top dailies and online media.&#13;
&#13;
This spotlight follows the launch of its 244-page gastronomy book titled “Gastronomic Expressions of Our City, Iloilo: Nature, Culture, and Geography” — a project passionately championed by Iloilo City’s first lady, Rosalie Treñas, along with key stakeholders, at the Iloilo Museum of Contemporary Art.&#13;
&#13;
Right photo shows Iloilo City’s First Lady Rosalie Treñas (second from right) and Ms. Raisa Treñas (third from left) with renowned book designer and food writer Ige Ramos (third from right) and esteemed Ilonggo chefs Cidj Jalandoni (rightmost) and Ariel Castañeda (leftmost).&#13;
For Mayor Jerry P. Treñas, this achievement not only ignites city pride but also strengthens the commitment to promoting sustainable, world-class gastronomy while sharing Iloilo’s essence with the global community. He emphasized that this initiative is a tribute to every Ilonggo who carries an unwavering sense of pride in their heritage.&#13;
&#13;
“This book instills a profound sense of pride in Ilonggos. It’s more than just a compilation of recipes and culinary stories; it’s a heartfelt endeavor created for every Ilonggo. We aim to celebrate and preserve our rich gastronomic heritage, ensuring that each dish, each story, and each memory is shared with the world,” the city mayor said.&#13;
&#13;
Aside from its aim to intensify awareness of local cuisine through active promotion and patronage, the book is another initiative towards achieving RISE, Iloilo City’s strategic roadmap for balanced development, focusing on economic growth, environmental sustainability, cultural heritage, and the wellbeing of its people.&#13;
&#13;
“Ginadayaw kag ginapalab-ot ko gid ang akon pagpasalamat sa tanan who have contributed to putting Iloilo on the map through our cuisine. Let’s continue to celebrate and share the best of our city globally,” said Mayor Treñas.&#13;
&#13;
Just recently, Iloilo City was featured in The Philippine Star’s Lifestyle section in an article titled “Iloilo and the Art of Hi-Lo Eating” written by Lisa Guerrero Nakpil. The piece underscores the city’s unique ability to blend high-end and heritage-inspired dining experiences seamlessly.&#13;
&#13;
“There has been, however, a long-standing culinary tradition of juxtaposing the upmarket with street food, and Iloilo City has mastered that very particular art of Hi-Lo Eating. To be sure, there are exemplars of the high life and the low tech all over Iloilo, as there are in any Philippine city; it’s just that Iloilo seems to do it with a bit more panache,” Nakpil wrote.&#13;
&#13;
Nakpil narrates the city’s food scene, from a comforting bowl of KBL (Kadios-Baboy-Langka) stew at Balay Remedios to the indulgent decadence of tablea chocolate mousse.&#13;
&#13;
Her and her group’s exploration of Iloilo’s food scene reflects the city’s remarkable diversity of flavors and narratives. They savored iconic dishes, including the renowned Pancit Molo dumpling soup at Panaderia de Molo, the flavorful batchoys at Alicia’s and The Granary of Richmonde Hotel, as well as the delectable seafood offerings at Breakthrough Restaurant. They also got the chance to visit heritage millionaire’s mansions and the Iloilo River esplanade.&#13;
&#13;
The feature likewise highlights iconic landmarks like Plaza de Molo, lively midnight bibingka stalls, and culinary pioneers such as Mama’s Kitchen and Camiña Balay nga Bato, reflecting the depth and ingenuity of Iloilo’s culinary tradition.&#13;
&#13;
Iloilo City’s gastronomy book also headlined Inquirer.net through an article titled “Iloilo’s Culinary Pride Now in a Book” and online website CoverStory through an article “Gastronomy book brings Ilonggo cuisine to the world.”&#13;
&#13;
“I take immense pride and joy in seeing our local flavors receive this recognition. This milestone reminds us of the importance of preserving our traditions while embracing the future of Iloilo City as a hub of culture and creativity,” Treñas said.&#13;
&#13;
A brainchild of the city’s first lady, Rosalie, who also serves as the project executive director, the book is a joint project of the Iloilo city government and the Iloilo Festivals Foundation Inc. (IFFI), marking the fourth book published by the local government.&#13;
&#13;
It is implemented by the Iloilo City MICE (Meetings Incentives Conferences and Exhibit) Center through Treñas’ Executive Assistant on Special Projects, Leny Ledesma, assisted by Special Assistant to the City Mayor, Maria Mathilde Treñas.&#13;
&#13;
Renowned cultural advocate, PJ Arañador, served as the cultural consultant; while Guillermo “Ige” Ramos of the Ugnayan Center for Filipino Gastronomy was the conceptual framework and creative director; and Michaela Fenix as the editor.&#13;
&#13;
Comprised of six major chapters, each section was written by Ilonggo professionals and writers such as Geography by Vicente Segovia Salas; Ethnicity by Hazel Palmares Villa; Ingredients by Glenda S. Tayona and Pearl Rylene Mae S. Socias, with watercolor illustrations by Ilonggo artists Vic Nabor and Kevin Fernandez; Technology by Ted Aldwin Ong; and Recipes by Rosalie S. Treñas.&#13;
&#13;
Mayor Treñas himself wrote the book’s Introduction by sharing his childhood food memories; National Commission for Culture and the Arts Executive Director, Dr. Eric Babar Zerrudo, wrote the Preface with a title “Comfort and Meaning in a Bowl of Batchoy; the Afterword by Dr. Laya Boquerin Gonzales, an assistant professor and chair of the Department of Arts, University of Asia and the Pacific, and a member of the International Council on Monuments and Sites Philippines and of the International Council of Museums; and the back cover blurb by Dr. Clement C. Camposano, chancellor of the University of the Philippines Visayas.&#13;
&#13;
In the Recipes chapter, the extensive collection of Ilonggo dishes was detailed with vivid photographs. It gave a spotlight on local ingredients, traditional cooking methods, and culinary processes.&#13;
&#13;
Esteemed Ilonggo chefs and restaurateurs, including Cidj Jalandoni, Miguel Cordova, Miner del Mundo, Raymundo Robles, Maridel P. Uygongco, and Rosalie S. Treñas, among others, have contributed their expertise and signature dishes to this chapter.&#13;
&#13;
The book has also the participation of the Technical Institute of Iloilo City (TIIC).&#13;
&#13;
Tourism Secretary Christina Garcia, who wrote a foreword for the book, extended her heartfelt congratulations to the Iloilo City Government, led by Treñas, and the IFFI, for their visionary leadership and dedication to the publication of the remarkable book.&#13;
&#13;
“Your efforts have placed Iloilo on the global map, with the city’s recent inclusion in UNESCO’s Creative Cities Network as a Creative City of Gastronomy, highlighting Iloilo’s position as a beacon of cultural pride and culinary excellence, inspiring us all to cherish and celebrate our unique gastronomic heritage,” she remarked./PN&#13;

                <text>The search for effective local governance models in the province of Iloilo resulted in the increase of people participation and enhanced the government’s responsiveness in transforming its local government unit as active partners in achieving its development goals through a more responsive and resourceful local government structure.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Provincial Planning and Development Office (PPDO) were therefore honored when it was tasked by the Governor of the Province of Iloilo to spearhead in the preparation of a compilation on Best Practices in Local Governance. It was agreed that the focus, as patterned to the Kaban Galing 2001 edition, would be on innovation and exemplary local government practices in Iloilo Province.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A participatory approach involving consultations at the provincial level was put in place. This became the foundation for the selection of reform oriented programs and projects that showcased exemplary practices in local governance. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A team of experts assisted in the design and validation of the projects where in a standardized format was agreed upon for compiling the necessary information. The result is this manual: a compilation of programs managed by new breed of reform-minded leaders that shares the vision of excellence in local governance. The programs and projects have been tested and adopted by the provincial government of Iloilo.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Nine programs and projects are included in the manual.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Some elements of the presented programs and projects in this manual are in fact customary practices that highlighted the value of a resource to people’s livelihoods or local communities. Many of the innovations added significance to the programs and projects where in the readers can adapt, share and promote these exemplary practices in local governance.</text>

ILOILO City – The prominent Lopez family of Iloilo has officially unveiled “The Patrimony of All – Ang Panublion sang Tanan”, an exhibit featuring 16 carefully selected masterpieces by renowned Filipino artists Juan Luna, Felix Hidalgo, Juan Arellano, and Fernando Amorsolo from the Lopez Museum and Library (LML) Collection.&#13;
&#13;
The exhibit, which runs from Nov. 25, 2024 to April 2025, is being held at the UP Visayas Museum of Art and Cultural Heritage (MACH) here.&#13;
&#13;
During the recent press briefing, Mercedes Lopez-Vargas, president of the Lopez Group Foundation, Inc. and executive director of the Lopez Museum and Library, expressed her enthusiasm for bringing these significant works to Iloilo, aiming to showcase Filipino artistic heritage and inspire cultural appreciation.&#13;
&#13;
ComScore Observer&#13;
“We hope to show that these artists painted not just what they saw and felt around them but also conversed with what was imagined elsewhere in the world,” shared Lopez-Vargas.&#13;
&#13;
Curated by Dr. Patrick Flores, “The Patrimony of All” also seeks to highlight the rich architectural heritage and cultural legacy of Iloilo, blending the visual arts with the historical identity of the city.&#13;
&#13;
“The Patrimony of All” is part of the celebration of the 77th Year of the University of the Philippines’ Presence in Iloilo, marking a significant cultural milestone for the city.&#13;
&#13;
The project was conceived by former senator Franklin Drilon in 2019 and realized through the support of Sen. Loren Legarda.&#13;
&#13;
Although the Lopez family, its foundations, and corporations are based in Metro Manila, they remain deeply connected to Iloilo, their province of origin. &#13;
&#13;
For over a century, the family has demonstrated a deep commitment to community welfare through their entrepreneurial, civic, and philanthropic initiatives.&#13;
&#13;
During a devastating famine in Iloilo in 1878, Kapitan Eugenio Lopez and his brother Claudio organized relief operations funded from their own resources to aid the affected population.&#13;
&#13;
During the Guimaras Oil Spill in 2006, the family donated 15 hectares of land to families impacted by the disaster, providing them with both shelter and livelihood programs to help rebuild their lives.&#13;
&#13;
These acts of generosity reflect the Lopez family’s dedication to uplifting communities and supporting social development, a legacy they continue to honor through cultural initiatives like “The Patrimony of All” and their ongoing philanthropic efforts.&#13;
&#13;
Beyond providing assistance during times of crisis, the Lopez family has long recognized that building a community requires long-term investment in both its people and the heritage they cherish.&#13;
&#13;
In the 1950s, Kapitan Eugenio’s son and namesake, Eugenio Sr., initiated a program to improve educational facilities, laying the foundation for the Lopez family’s ongoing commitment to education and community development.&#13;
&#13;
Eugenio Sr.’s children and grandchildren also have continued this legacy through various social development projects. &#13;
&#13;
These include several initiatives focused on the town’s growth and welfare in Jaro; the Gawad Kalinga, which contributed to the empowerment of impoverished communities; the Bantay Kalusugan, a program aimed at reducing malnutrition in the region; and skills development and training to supporting weaving collectives and indigenous groups, empowering local artisans and communities to preserve and thrive in their traditional crafts.&#13;
&#13;
Ingrained in the Lopez family and its institutions is an appreciation for the depth and breadth of Philippine cultural heritage, recognizing the importance of preserving and sharing the rich history and traditions of every part of the country.&#13;
&#13;
This spirit of cultural appreciation has driven significant initiatives such when Oscar Lopez personally funded the restoration of the Jaro Cathedral, ensuring that this important historical and cultural landmark in Iloilo would be preserved for future generations./PN&#13;
