From Streets to Your Table: Bringing Kadayawan Flavors through foodpanda


August 22, 2025—Davao City, Philippines—Every August, the streets of Davao come alive with music, colors, and festive spirit for the Kadayawan. This year, many Davaoeños found a different way to celebrate—by enjoying the city’s best local flavors delivered straight to their doorsteps, made possible by foodpanda.

 

Kadayawan, the city's biggest harvest festival, is a time to celebrate rich culture, abundance, and of course, food. Local cuisines reflect tradition and heritage, making them an essential part of the festivities. For some, the celebration means going out to watch tribal sports, street dances, and celebrity-studded floats; for others, it’s about slowing down and savoring the long weekend with family, friends, and homegrown dishes. 


With a wide variety of local food establishments available on the app, Davaoeños truly got the best of both worlds. They were able to celebrate in comfort while still indulging in authentic flavors from local favorites. Here are just some of the Kadayawan must-haves that reached homes this season through foodpanda:


  • Olivia Limos enjoyed the festivities with a sweet delivery from Bistro Rosario, featuring their iconic Mango Charlotte and Butter Roll.
  • Goin Pineda found comfort in a box of chicken wings from SouthWing, proving that festival traffic is no match for the ease of foodpanda’s service.
  • NeP-C Ledesma and her family celebrated Davao’s farm-to-table abundance with a healthy spread from The Green Bounty Kitchen.
  • Michael Kael reminded his followers that a true Dabawenyo feast—like Beef Hinalang and Sinuglaw from Paz Eatery—is now just a few clicks away.
  • Kirby Gaitano opted for a flavorful celebration at home with a haul of tacos and burgers from Dirty Sanchez, showing that foodpanda truly brings festival flavors closer to every household.


For many Davaoeños, celebrating from home didn’t mean missing out on tradition. Community leaders such as Gem Tadefa, President of the Davao Bloggers Society, echoed how this experience showed the convenience and accessibility of festival favorites.

 

We love how foodpanda is empowering our community to celebrate Kadayawan their way—supporting local restaurants and enjoying our city’s rich culinary scene—all with a simple and convenient delivery,” he shared.


And because the celebration doesn’t have to end with the festival weekend, foodpanda is extending the spirit of Kadayawan all month long with a special promo. Until August 31, 2025, customers can enjoy ₱100 off a minimum order of ₱199 from selected restaurants using the code PANDA100.




  

With every order, Davaoeños continue to enjoy convenience while supporting homegrown favorites, proving that Kadayawan flavors are worth celebrating all month long.
