A LITTLE PIECE OF TIKIM

So when we set out to do this project, little did we know that we would get to work with some amazing partners and designers.

As part of our first supper club, @natedy designed and @e_gotosan produced some amazing product in partnership with @jordan.champ.mendez.

Scroll through the photos to check them out and get yours before they are gone. It’s a limited run.

KARE KARE TEE

This tee was inspired by one of the dishes we featured in our Supper Club. We love this tee as much as we love the dish. In fact, if you look closely, the front tee image is our Kare Kare. The back is an awesome breakdown of the iconic ingredients of the dish. The tee blank is Gildan (think your typical concert tee) and is 100% cotton.

Size: Unisex SM, MED, LG, XL

Price: $30

SALAMAT TOTE

This tote is a riff on the iconic THANK YOU bag. It is printed on a canvas tote and great for everyday use.

Size: 14.75 in x 15.5 in (One Size)

Price: $20

MARAMING SALAMAT!

“A crazy idea from three women who have zero formal culinary training became a beautiful success thanks to the community coming together.” That could be our long headline after the TIKIM Supper Club pop-up at @mestizo.pdx

The pandemic amplified the longing we didn’t know we had for the food and the community we knew before moving to Portland. This longing brought us together, and our collective community got behind us to make our crazy idea a reality.

Sunday was a greater success than we could have ever imagined. Our first event as TIKIM was impossibly beautiful. When there was a need to be fulfilled as we planned, people stepped up without hesitation and even without being asked, helping us during their days off and “free” time. This. This is community. This is belonging. We’re still reeling in the best way possible from all the love.

Tickets sold in less than 5 minutes for this event. We’re continually encouraged by the demand and engagement. Sunday night’s dining room was filled with warm smiling diverse guests. 9 out of 20 were Filipino, 16 out of 20 were BIPOC, over half were service industry/independent business owners, and 11 were female. THIS was Portland showing up.

The sincerest gratitude to everyone who has and continues to help us push our vision forward. We couldn’t and can’t do this without all of you. We are so excited about what’s next (already in the planning phase), and we hope you will join us.

Stay with us. Keep talking about Filipino cuisine and culture. Share your stories. Inspire us and one another. Your Ates welcome you.

Maraming Salamat!
