Wanna visit the Philippinessans passport?

Get your chance on Sun., Oct 2, when brand new local catering company Master BBQ host its very first pop-up event at Zilliocoah Beer Co. (870 Riverside Dr.) from 12-8 p.m.

Originally based in Los Angeles, Master BBQ recently relocated to WNC and plans to dazzle diners with authentic Filipino comfort food. The dishes are based on 80-year old heirloom family recipes like Filipino Pork BBQ skewers, pancit (savory stir-fried rice noodle dish with pork + vegetables), and lumpia (spring rolls filled with meat + veggies).

In addition to fantastic bites, the event will also feature music and, of course, plenty of craft beer. We’ll raise a glass to that.
