As a proud Cebuano, my passion for food goes beyond just eating — it’s about celebrating the rich cultural heritage and unique flavors that define our beloved Cebu. Through Cebuano Cravings , I’ve created a space where I can share this passion with fellow food lovers. It’s more than just a page — it’s a community where every post is an invitation to join me on a flavorful adventure across the Queen City of the South. Each recommendation is carefully chosen, highlighting not only the taste but also the stories behind the food. Cebuano Cravings aims to inspire others to explore the diversity of flavors Cebu offers, support local businesses, and keep our rich food traditions alive and thriving in the modern world. In 2025, we’ve taken things a step further. Cebuano Cravings is now expanding beyond just food — we’re beginning to explore the broader cravings of Cebuanos, including travel, lifestyle, cultural experiences and more. Our mission remains the same: to celebrate what makes Cebu vibrant, flavorful, and worth discovering — one craving at a time so AYAW KABALAKA, WE GOT YOU!
Cebuano Cravings began as a deep personal journey. After I lost 80% of my sight due to neuromyelitis optica (NMO), I struggled to find a sense of purpose. My partner, Kath, and I decided to focus on something that would bring joy and comfort—we challenged ourselves in 2023 to try 100 new different restaurants everyday and share our food adventures online. What started as simple daily posts on my personal profile quickly grew into something more meaningful. As our experiences sparked joy among friends and family, I created a dedicated page called “Cebu Cravings” to document our journey. Over time, our content began to resonate with a wider audience, and by 2024, I renamed the page to Cebuano Cravings. It has since grown beyond food, offering insights into travel, skincare, and lifestyle. Through Cebuano Cravings, we share our favorite food finds from beloved local dishes like lechon to hidden gems around Cebu—celebrating the richness of our island’s culinary culture and encouraging others to explore and enjoy its flavors. - Maria of Cebuano Cravings
