About Me
Hey hungry souls and intrepid nomads! I'm Rafa, a maverick in the world of hospitality, currently stirring up trouble in the dynamic city of Melbourne food scene. Born amidst the chaos of Davao City, Philippines, my upbringing was a patchwork quilt of cultures, a melting pot of flavours that ignited my passion for exploration.
My journey into hospitality was sparked by a revelation: the sterile corridors of the banking world held no allure for a soul like mine. So, fueled by an insatiable hunger for adventure, I embarked on a global odyssey, with Saudi Arabia serving as my first stomping ground in 2002. From there, I crisscrossed continents, immersing myself in the rich tapestry of cultures that define our world.
In 2019, fate led me to the bustling streets of Melbourne, where I seized the opportunity to reignite my passion for discovery. Thus, this blog was reborn, a digital diary chronicling my culinary escapades and epicurean exploits.
Armed with a wealth of experience and a palate finely tuned to the nuances of flavor, I ventured into the realm of food tours, leading intrepid travelers on immersive journeys through the culinary landscapes of Dubai and Melbourne. Join me and my team as we peel back the layers of these vibrant cities, unearthing hidden gems, savoring exotic cuisines, and diving headfirst into the pulsating heart of global food culture.
