I'm from the Philippines and the package was delivered safely. The box is secure and the books are in great, readable condition. I also appreciate the bubble wrap cover for some of the books for safe delivery. Also, thank you for the free postcard. It’s highly appreciated. Attached are pictures as proof:

A wonderful curated selection of books on the Philippines, including hard-to-find ones. My order was shipped the next business day and it arrived in excellent condition and ahead of schedule. Five stars customer service. Highly recommended.

I very much enjoyed reading the recipes. I found them innovating and inspiring. I am a certified pastry chef myself and when I see something that makes me sit up in my chair..I want to bake it. I have tons of recipes books from chefs from all over the world. Keep up the good work!! I was disappointed ,however, not to find the Espresso Walnut Bundt Pan Recipe....

For anyone who would like to grow their collection of Filipino cookbooks but live outside the Philippines, Filipino Food Crawl is a reliable website. There is a very good selection of cookbooks, including hard to find titles and books that are well-produced but don't get much publicity. There is clear communication throughout and the process is seamless. As an added perk, Raf was able to get my cookbook signed and personalized by the author!

We got the book we wanted in good shape in the timeframe we were given. Glad to be able to have this resource to connect my children to their Filipino cultural heritage through food.

I was looking for the Goldilocks baking book and came across Filipino food crawl. Apart from that, Raf also helped me in getting other books that were not listed in the site before. Over-all, customer service and communication skills were excellent! My books arrived in Canada without any issues and they were packed neatly. Highly recommended!! Will definitely purchase again!

I've spent so much time looking for the Goldilocks bakebook on FB marketplace and other shopping platforms but after a recent Google search I discovered Filipino Food Crawl and I was very happy to see it available on the site, along with other hard to find Filipino books here in North America. The site was easy to navigate and books were reasonably priced. The books were packed really well and arrived here in Canada in amazing condition. Purchasing from Filipino Food Crawl was a great experience and made my search so much easier. Would definitely shop again! Thanks for making a piece of home available and more accessible.

I'm delighted to discover Filipino Food Crawl and its stock of sometimes hard-to-locate books on Filipino cuisine and culture. The prices are reasonable (generally cheaper than I've found elsewhere) and the shipment was quick, gloriously well-packed, and arrived safe and sound, to unwrap like rewards to my curiosity (and spurs to my hunger). Thanks!

I am so glad I found Filipino Food Crawl! I'm always searching for books about Filipino food culture so I'm endlessly grateful for the website's thoughtful curation of our food history. I also attended one of their events and was elated by how many from the community showed up to talk about Filipino food. I will be a returning customer! Thank you Raf and Filipino Food Crawl! :D

I first heard about @FilipinoFoodCrawl on IG. I love their engaging stories, but most importantly, I was able to find some amazing out-of-print books on Filipino food writing. I've also had some great Q&A regarding my own research, and Raf was able to shed some light on my questions. It's important to have this renewed interest in these publications, as now there have been reprintings of important works such as Tikim by Doreen G. Fernandez. Also having access to books that you won't find outside of the Philippines has helped expand my library and knowledge. Thank you Filipino Food Crawl!!!

By far one of the best food tours we've ever been on, and one of the most memorable and enjoyable experiences of our first trip to NYC. Raf immediately makes everyone feel welcome and at ease, and you're like old friends by the end of the tour. He intertwines his deep knowledge of Filipino history and cultural anecdotes with the story of the cuisine and how it has evolved. And the food - OH THE FOOD -- absolutely delicious and unique. Take advantage of this great opportunity to learn about a cuisine and culture that deserves way more love and credit from Americans.

So happy I found Filipino Food Crawl! I ordered 2 beautiful books that took barely a week to be delivered to Canada and the owner was super nice and quick to answer a question I had before ordering. Definitely will be back.. so many great hard to find books here too. Thanks so much!

As a Filipino American who studies food, I knew that Raf, his tour, and his online store are go-to's for anyone who's curious about Filipino food and culture. His site is overflowing with Filipino books that are not so easy to find in the United States, and so far, I've bought four incredible ones. Filipinofoodcrawl.com is easy to navigate and seamless to purchase items. My books were shipped promptly and came in pristine condition. I will definitely be purchasing books from Raf again. Thank you!

The Filipino Food Crawl was an incredible experience. Not only was the food delicious at every venue we visited, but the host Raf made it even more special. Such a welcoming host and great storyteller. One of the best things we’ve ever done in New York City.
