A night of culinary delights, culture, and compassion
Ayala Malls Greenbelt, in collaboration with Sociedad Española de Beneficencia (SEB) and esteemed partners, announces the triumphant return of Paella Gigante on 16 March 2024. The stage is set for an exhilarating evening celebrating the fusion of cultures through tantalizing flavors, rhythmic dances, and heartwarming community spirit.
As the clock strikes 4:00 p.m. at Greenbelt 3 Park, a night of culinary delights and cultural spectacle will unfold. Live cooking demonstrations, Spanish performances, a photo booth, exquisite wines, and a diverse array of vendors transform the venue into more than just an event; it becomes a feast for the senses!
The Return of a Culinary Legacy
SEB, established in 1948, is dedicated to enhancing the well-being of elderly individuals, both Spanish and Filipino. In 2012, Paella Gigante emerged as a joint initiative by SEB, Ayala Malls Greenbelt, and LTB Philippines Chef Association. The project serves as a fundraising endeavor to provide essential support, including shelter, medical assistance, counseling, hospitalization, and interment aid.
Despite a hiatus in the annual event from 2020 through 2023 due to the pandemic, the pause only fueled the determination to make a triumphant return in 2024. Paella Gigante returns as more than a culinary spectacle, it is a celebration of culture, compassion, and community.
