For this meal I'll be preparing dishes with flavor influences from the Philippines and Peru. Both cuisines have some similarities, which include rich and bold flavors. I will be preparing a meal that will showcase the similarities in some of the dishes of each cuisine, as well as highlight the uniqueness of flavors.
