Filipino households have been stretching pechay forever into tinola, sauté, whateverrrrrr. But we were like… did your nanay ever throw it on the grill?

Probably. But ours still smacks.

Charred cabbage hearts, carrot purée, soy–calamansi vinaigrette that’s sharp, sticky, a little agro dolce. IT’S SO GOOD.

Respect the pechay. Respect your nanay. ❤️

For the next chapter of the Unapologetically Filipino Chef Series, presented by Resy, we’re welcoming a conversation that rarely gets the spotlight.

This February, Chef John Navoa of Hapag, fresh off earning the restaurant’s first Michelin star, joins Chef Eric Valdez at Naks for a two-night collaboration dinner centered on the cuisine of Mindanao.

Mindanao, the southernmost island of the Philippines, is defined by striking geography, and one of the country’s largest Muslim populations. Its foodways reflect this history with technique shaped by trade, migration, and centuries of regional exchange across Southeast Asia. These influences create a culinary identity distinct from what is often associated with Filipino cooking in Manila or abroad.

Join us on February 2nd or 3rd. Reservations are now live on Resy (link in bio). 🔥🔥🔥

Inihaw na Liempo is Filipino street grilling at its most precise.

Pork belly is marinated with a lemon soda–based glaze, a classic Filipino trick that adds sweetness, acidity, and caramelization.
Finished with banana ketchup, a wartime-born Filipino staple made from bananas, vinegar, sugar, and spice that’s sweet, tangy, and unmistakably Filipino.

Charred edges, juicy center, smoke, sugar, acid, fat, and a whole lot of delicious. Damn. 🤌

Mango Skewers, Naks-style: fruit on fire with a salty-sweet snap.

A nod to manggang hilaw + bagoong—that classic Filipino street combo—reworked for the grill. Charred mango goes bright with jicama (singkamas) salsa, punched up by shrimp paste (bagoong alamang), finished with fresh cilantro for lift. It’s sticky, briny, citrusy, and 😘

Real ones know the red roll of Fita crackers, the iconic salty-sweet, buttery rounds from every sari-sari store memory. Over here, they get crushed and bound into a crust for Ube Cheesecake, holding a silky layer of whipped ube cream. It’s a new-school dessert with old-school bones, paying homage to the snacks that raised us.

Ayyy, grab a couple of spoons and go bite for bite, bes 🤌

No shrimp here. These fat daddies are sugpo, Filipino grilled prawns, and their larger, sweeter, richer. Charcoal-grilled whole over live fire to blister the shell and lock in all that fat, then drowned in roasted garlic, butter, and s**a (Filipino vinegar) for sharpness 😮‍💨 Ang sarap, mang.

Inihaw na Sugpo, only at Naks.

Last night hit different 😮‍💨⁠

After a fulfilling day at , we opened our doors for a proper industry hang with late-night drinks, loud laughs, and a feast that centered around a whole lechon 🐖⁠
