Inside World Class — Raising the Standard for Filipino Bartending

For many Filipinos, bartending is often viewed as a profession centered on making drinks and serving guests. What many do not realize is that behind every great cocktail is a craft that demands precision, creativity, hospitality, storytelling, and years of discipline behind the bar.

For more than a decade, one global platform has helped raise the standards of the profession and develop some of the industry's most respected talents: Diageo World Class.

Run under the Diageo Bar Academy, Diageo World Class is widely regarded as one of the most prestigious bartending competitions and education platforms in the world. The Diageo Bar Academy serves as Diageo's global bartender education program, providing training, resources, and professional development opportunities to hospitality professionals across the globe.

Love languages of fatherhood served with Ihaw-Sarap and Unli-Saya!

How Filipino dads show they care with Mang Inasal grilled favorites

Fatherhood is often expressed not through grand declarations, but through quiet, everyday gestures. For many Filipino dads, love looks like picking up the kids from school despite a long workday, bringing home food for the family, fixing things around the house, or simply making time to share a meal. While they may not always say “I love you” out loud, their actions often speak louder than words.

This Father’s Day, Mang Inasal celebrates the many ways fathers express their love—from quality time and acts of service to shared experiences that bring families closer together.
