The Philippines is famous for its love of fiestas, with around 130 to enjoy in different parts of the country throughout the year.
Whatever the reason for the festivities, a typical Filipino fiesta will involve fairgrounds, marching bands and a range of street food to whet your appetite.
This classic fiesta menu highlights all the dishes you can expect to enjoy if you are lucky enough to get an invite.
Many of these festivals are held in honor of a particular patron saint, while the origins of others come from the ancient beliefs of the indigenous peoples of the region.
Another key feature is that people open their houses to friends, family and complete strangers, with large buffets laid on for guests.
