<p>The Blue Leaf and Our Awesome Planet made culinary history last July 27, by staging a never-before-seen collaboration between 11 of the country’s top chefs and caterers. The bold, new concept &#8211; Who’s Cooking?: Grand Reveal Party &#8211; sought for the expertise of these chefs and caterers to create a masterpiece 5-course menu exclusive for The Blue Leaf.</p>
<p>With the help of TeamAsia, an integrated marketing communication agency in the Philippines, and their events management, social media, and public relations capabilities, this great idea was turned into a memorable experience for their guests, partners, and collaborators.</p>
<p>TeamAsia set up the event and organized all the event logistics, designed and curated the event’s creative assets, launched a hype-generating digital campaign across various social media platforms.</p>

<p>Imagine the aroma of fresh rosemary and other herbs roasted inside juicy <i>lechon</i>. Imagine the sight of a chic dining table beneath palm fronds and bright pink plastic flamingos. Imagine the taste of foie gras gently melting onto your tongue or the familiar taste of balut with a Japanese favor, taking on a totally new texture and shape. What began as a revolutionary concept was now a bold and memorable experience and a unique first in the culinary world.</p>
