About Us

Native Pantry was born from conversations and cooking for friends and family. Amabelle Camba & Chona Camomot created the organization because the food told them to. 

Filipinos use food to celebrate, comfort, and console. It is a binding force. Filipino food brings flavors that inspire connection. It makes everyone feel welcomed and at home. 

Filipino food comes from so many influences--Malay, Chinese, Indian, American, etc. Every dish tells a story--of the country's history, its regions, and its people. We hope you'll learn something while you enjoy all the flavors .
