Growing up both in the Philippines and the US, and now having perfected both cooking and farming, Rafael has a unique perspective on our food system. We talk about bite-sized goals, assimilating to American culture, and his new restaurant venture!

Bahay Kubo, the song that helped Rafael select what he would grow: https://www.tagaloglang.com/bahay-kubo-lyrics-recordings/

Noise alert: This interview was recorded at Hilltop Urban Farm in Pittsburgh, outdoors, and it was a windy day. I learned that we need to protect the microphone from the wind.
