Here are some tips to maximize your Ultimate Taste Test Experience:

Tip#1: Pace your Eating Strategy

You don’t need to rush so please savor each bite. Go easy on the drinks and the dessert at the start.

Make sure to get only the ones you are interested in tasting. Best to taste it first one at a one, before moving to the next one instead of hoarding all the food in your plate.

Remember, UTT is not an eat-all-you-can buffet type of event.  The goal is to discover new food and taste new flavors.

Here is the final list of 40 vendors approved for UTT 10th Edition:

About The Choice Awards V

We’re now in a Golden Age of Philippine Restaurants and Hotels that we’ve never experienced before.

In the first six months of this year alone, over 500 new restaurants opened … and that’s only all over Metro Manila! The construction boom in hotels and resorts all over the country is likewise accelerating at a rapid pace.

Every month, every week, and almost every day it seems, there’s a new restaurant opening its doors. There are a lot of great new dining choices, side by side with the perennials, the classics that we grew up with. As food bloggers, writers, and members of the F&B industry, we’re always very curious about the crowd favorites. The popular vote, if you will. What are the beloved favorites? Let the voice of the people be heard!

 


Tip #5: Buy your tickets now (exclusive to 1,000 guests only)

Don’t forget: Maximum of 1,000 tickets will be only be sold. We are selling tickets at the gate but buy your tickets now online to secure your slot!

One thought on “Foodie Guide to Ultimate Taste Test 10th Year x The Choice Awards!

  1. I have a few questions:
    1) Are drinks from Taste of Agos included in the ticket or do we purchase them separately?
    2) since they are labeled as “vendors” then will they be selling some of the foods we try?
    3) if #2 is yes, is it possible to pay via card or are all transactions cash basis only?

    Thanks and I look forward to trying out all the foods. The list looks more balanced this year as compared to some previous years where most of it was fatty meat dishes, so it really looks well thought-of that a person can cycle through several rounds of multiple-course meals that transitions from appetizers, vegetables/healthy, then mains to dessert. 🙂
