Hukad’s newest celebrity endorser Gerald Anderson
BREAKING news! Award-winning actor and heartthrob Gerald Anderson has just confessed that he has a brand-new love, and he wants to share it with the world.
“It’s true,” laughs Gerald. “My new love hails from Cebu, is very generous and family-oriented, and loves to cook all my favorite food.”
Gerald’s new love is none other than Hukad, part of the Golden Cowrie group of restaurants famed for their classic Cebuano and Filipino comfort dishes served with a modern dining experience. Already a popular restaurant in Visayas and Mindanao, Hukad is now expanding its reach nationwide with new branches popping up all over Luzon and Metro Manila.
“We’re very pleased to have Gerald Anderson as our endorser for Hukad and Golden Cowrie,” says Kenneth C. Kokseng, General Manager of Hukad and Golden Cowrie.
“His passion for his life and craft reflect our passion for our food and our service. What’s more, Gerald is part Bisaya so he really is authentic, he truly knows and appreciates our culture, tastes, and flavors.”
With over a hundred items on the menu, and almost all good for sharing, Hukad lives up to its tagline “Always a Feast!” Highlighting the Filipino tradition of “salu-salo” or coming together over good food, Hukad is the perfect place for families and friends to celebrate festive get-togethers or to bond over favorite meals.
“Like Gerald Anderson, many world-savvy Filipinos may try out different cuisines and international concepts, but there will always be a place in their hearts for the homegrown Filipino comfort food that they grew up on,” says Kenneth Kokseng. “Offer delightful flavors, great hospitality, and amazing value, and the love will always be there.”
For Gerald, that love that is even better when it’s shared. “When I eat Hukad dishes, I would always remember how mom took care of me when I was young. So it’s always nakakabusog ng tiyan at ng puso when it’s my turn to treat my mom at Hukad, because it brings us closer as a family.”
Hukad marks 35 years with over 40 branches nationwide. In Cebu, Golden Cowrie is located at Salinas Drive Lahug, Marina Mall, AS Fortuna, SM City Cebu and Golden Cowrie Filipino Kitchen at Ayala Center Cebu.
