In the early 2000s Jenn and I were Festival of Philippine Arts and Culture community builders who put a lot of time, energy, and sometimes tears (on my end, not sure about hers) into the festival! Besides her work with FPAC and FilAm Arts she is also blogs at A Bite of Soul where she shares about her delicious foodie and travel adventures! In honor of FPAC coming up this Saturday, I'm excited to share this interview with Jenn! Oblivious meets Jenn Santos Estacio Name(s) Jenn Santos Estacio Affiliations (arts org, fun things you do, etc) : FilAM ARTS Kappa Psi Epsilon A Bite of Soul What's the one word you are guilty of using too much? UGH! How did you end up doing what you are doing now? I've always been involved with my Filipino American community and the work I do with FilAM Arts is a stress reliever for me. It's actually fun work (challenging at times) but the pay off is worth it. Growing up, my parents loved to cook and I never understood why until I lived on my own and learned how to cook. I'm a wannabe chef and I love to eat at the hottest new restaurant, but also finding those hole in the wall places too! Which member of the Wu-Tang Clan best describes your personality? Method Man Dogs or Cats, who wins? Why?
Dogs! They are just too cute! What is the best part of any given day for you? Cooking in the kitchen and testing new recipes. Also a good workout that makes me sweat In a zombie apocalypse who would you want on your survival team? Darryl (duh!) What is the last thing you searched for on google? How to make Thai Food If you could talk to your high school self, what would say? Do what you are passionate about and who cares what other's think as long as you are happy What is the best thing or meal you ever ate? A fusion take on Asian and French cuisine: Cassia in Santa Monica, CA What is a memorable project that you are working on or have worked on? Right now, I'm in heavy planning for the Festival of Philippine Arts and Culture and just seeing fresh new faces taking on a tradition here in the LA area is so refreshing. Also, I finally get to use all my Pinterest boards to figure out how to DIY some new home decor at my new house.
