Lutong Bahay: Lola's Home Cooking
Description
Take on the task of inheriting your grandmother’s carinderia by travelling across the Philippines, learning how to cook iconic Filipino dishes, and discovering the history and culture of its place of origin. Explore the region, talk to the locals, and learn famous Filipino recipes!
Project Objective
Lutong Bahay: Lola's Home Cooking aims to showcase iconic Filipino dishes, utilizing the interactive and immersive characteristic of videogames in order to facilitate an understanding of how the dishes are prepared, as well as the historical background of how the dishes originated. The project also seeks to instill in its players a deeper appreciation towards the rich and culturally diverse culinary history and traditions of the Philippines. In doing so, the developers hope that the project could help spark interest towards our local cuisine, not only on a national level, but on a global scale as well.

I'm so sad that only a few people know about this game. This showcases the Filipino culture so well—imbued with passion towards the culture's delicacies. It's clear that many haven't seen or appreciate this game enough. Nevertheless, I had so much fun! The art, the ui, the game mechanics are all beautiful. It has depth and adds meaning to the story. Good job! Kudos to everyone that made this game!
As a Filipina myself, I'm happy that our culture is being shown in such a creative and beautiful way. ANG GANDA HUEY

Hello!!! I played this game a few years ago and absolutely loved it, but I heard it got updated and decided to play it again.
There’s so much more story, event stills, and cooking than before!!!
I really love Teacher Maricela's Trivia Time! Learning about Filipino culture was super fun, and I enjoyed looking up all the food names and traditions mentioned.
The scene at the end where you return from your journey—absolutely loved it!!!!!!
The appearance of the simple dish, especially the one shown on the title screen, was such a powerful moment.
I’m really close to my grandmother, so I played through it with tears in my eyes, nya (=；ω；=)
Thank you for this amazing game. If there are more updates, I’ll definitely play it again, nya!
lovely cooking game :3
