For 'Lumpia Queen' Abi Marquez, Filipino food is more than content, it's her 'life and blood'

Abi Marquez didn't initially set out to be one of the most recognisable faces in the social media food sphere; but with worthwhile content and a loyal following to boot, she's set the table to make Filipino food accessible to all.

Key Points

• Originally from Laguna, Abi Marquez is a popular food content creator who mainly features Filipino food in her videos.
• She has collaborated with big names, such as Chef Gordon Ramsay and viral sensation Uncle Roger.
• Marquez is set to hold a 'Boodle Brunch' event this March in the Melbourne Food and Wine Festival with Chef Morris Danzen Catanghal.

Making content is my way of preserving our culture...because the younger generation is on TikTok and would rather watch a one-minute reel about how to cook Adobo than ask how to do it.
