Manyaman
Manyaman brings the vibrant flavors of Pampanga, Philippines to the East Coast. Our mission is to provide an authentic Filipino dining experience that feels like home—where every meal is a warm gathering, everyone is treated like family, and culture is celebrated.
"Manyaman" means "delicious" in Kapampangan, the regional language of Pampanga, Philippines, where my family is from. This project is dedicated to my mom, who dreamed of owning a restaurant and kept me connected to our culture through food. I created this brand to capture the joy and warmth I feel from a delicious Filipino meal, incorporating some visuals that remind me of the Philippines. The logo features a sampaguita, the national flower, and the mascot is a chubby carabao, a water buffalo native to the Philippines. Through this project, I also challenged myself to showcase my skills in branding, packaging, marketing, food styling, photography, and web design.
