Phoenix Petroleum Philippines Vice President for Integrated Marketing and Strategies Ma. Celina Matias shared that they were overwhelmed by the amount of support and entries they got from talented Filipino singing chefs and home cooks nationwide.
From over a hundred singing cooks who submitted their recorded entries, only 40 contestants advanced to the digital cook-off rounds that aired on the Phoenix SUPER LPG and ABS-CBN Foundation’s Facebook pages. Our goal is for Kalderoke to become everyone’s Saturday morning habit because, as the tagline goes, Kay sarap pala magluto,” said Paul Vincent Mercado, Marketing Head of ABS-CBN Foundation.
As part of the “Sarap pala magluto” campaign, Kalderoke highlights the value of Phoenix SUPER LPG with its German-made SRG regulator that makes users discover the joys of cooking, making the experience “safe, sigurado, simple.”
“This quarantine period was an opportune time for a lot of us to discover the joys of cooking, and we are proud that Phoenix SUPER LPG has always been available to continuously serve and supply many households and businesses with quality gas for their cooking needs,” Matias added.
Phoenix has been a long-time valued partner of the ABS-CBN Foundation. The two are behind the multi-awarded campaign, Pinoy Tsuper Hero, a project whose primary goal is to recognize the unsung heroes of the driving industry, providing them the opportunity to become a better version of themselves.
“It’s a good thing that Phoenix SUPER LPG is also looking for a partner institution that can help them mount a project that will showcase the talent of every Kapamilya, both in singing and cooking.
