A recent study reveals that in the Philippines, 58 percent entertain at home at least once a week. This comes as no surprise, considering our culture of hospitality, love for food, and genuine devotion to family and friends. But though we have mastered the art of putting together a weekly gathering, here are more tips to make the best out of our bonding moments:

  • Glam up your dining table with yummy and unexpected treats. Every week, change up your menu by focusing on a type of cuisine (Chinese, Italian, etc) or an in-season ingredient. This will have your family and friends looking forward to something every week.
  • Keep things simple. Refrain from overdoing the decor, the food, and even the conversation to keep your guests feeling relaxed.
  • Break the ice. Inject an icebreaker game to jumpstart or sustain the momentum of weekly gathering. Fun bonding games such as Taboo, charades, or even poker will surely get everyone out of their seats.
