Still pinching ourselves… 🥹

We’re incredibly proud to share that we’ve once again been recognised in the Iconic Auckland Eats 2026 🏆 and this year, our Adobo Del Diablo has landed in the Top 5 BEST DISHES in all of Auckland 🙌🏻 🇵🇭🥇

What started as a bold, slightly controversial take on showcasing Filipino classics still proves to continue to open minds and win hearts 🫶🏼
From the early days of doubt & criticism to now standing alongside some of the best chefs in the city… it honestly feels still surreal for us 🥲

Going up against thousands of incredible operators every year is no small feat, and to still be here evolving, pushing boundaries, and representing Filipino flavours in a modern way is something we’ll never take for granted 🙏🏼

Aldrin, the mastermind behind it all, took a risk years ago to break the mould and tell his story through food. This dish carries that story & his culture, along with our journey and seeing it embraced like this is something dreams are made of ✨ and that’s all because of YOU. Every vote, every visit, every time you’ve trusted us to share our food and our story it means the sacrifices are worth it.

To our community, our team, our day ones ☝🏻 and to anyone and everyone who’s backed Hapunan along the way this is yours as much as it is ours 🤎

We’ll never stop championing Filipino food & culture loud, proud, and unapologetically us 💪🏼🇵🇭
From our little corner of NZ to wherever this journey takes us next. We’re bringing our stories, our flavours, and our people with us every step of the way! And I’m pretty confident that the best is yet to come 😉

28/04/2026

22/03/2026

CBD Soft opening this Tuesday! The 24th March 🙌🏻

It might be a small space… but somehow it feels so big to us. Seeing our name up in lights in the middle of the CBD doesn’t even feel real yet 🥲

I’m so incredibly proud of you, Aldrin. You dreamed this, pushed for it, and brought us here even when things felt uncertain, even when it was hard. We’ve been through our fair share of challenges (and then some)😮‍💨 but somehow we always find a way through… together.

This might not look “grand” to everyone, but to us, it means everything. It’s another step, another chapter, another reminder that all the hard work, late nights, and sacrifices are worth it 🥹

We honestly can’t wait to welcome you all in next week and share this space with you 🇵🇭

We’ll pop up another post with all the details dropping tomorrow with everything you need to know 😉

We’re still growing, still dreaming… and definitely only just getting started ✨

17/03/2026

Our Community 🫶🏼

Like many small businesses, we’ve definitely felt the impact lately. With everything going on in the world and the rising cost of living (especially fuel ⛽️)
We’ve noticed fewer people coming through our doors and we completely understand why 🥲

Over the past few years, we’ve faced our fair share of challenges but one thing that has always carried us through is this incredible foodie community. Your support has meant everything to us, and right now, we’re reaching out again and asking if you’re able to help us continue doing what we love 🙌🏻

Even something small, like popping in for one item, a quick lunch or takeaway dinner, genuinely makes a difference. Every bit of support adds up more than you know 🙏🏼

In the middle of all this uncertainty, we’ve also made the slightly crazy (but exciting!) decision to expand again & use all our savings 🫣
We truly believe in what we do, and 2026 is our year to grow and share it with even more people!

This week, we’ll be open at our Huapai HQ
📍 316 Main Road
Tuesday – Saturday
12pm – 3pm (lunch) 4pm – 8pm (dinner)

If you’ve been meaning to visit us then this is your sign 🤩 We’d absolutely love to see some familiar and new faces!

And for all our city customers, our CBD store should hopefully be opening next week too 🤞🏼 Where we can’t wait to have a permanent spot to call home & be feeding you out of soon!
We’ll share more details on that very shortly 🇵🇭

For now we just want to say a huge Maraming Salamat for always backing us and keeping our dream alive for the past 10 years!
It never goes unnoticed 🥹

For the last Five years running, our ADOBO DEL DIABLO 🇵🇭 has been crowned ICONIC 🏆
Now we’re asking our community to help us take it into 2026 🙌🏻

This dish broke rules, sparked debate, and challenged tradition especially within our own culture but it was always created with one goal in mind 🫡
to shine a bold, modern spotlight on Filipino flavours here in Aotearoa 🇳🇿🇵🇭

Behind it all is Aldrin, who took a risk 9 years ago by reimagining his childhood dishes in a way that felt honest, fearless, and true. The criticism came early (& sometimes still does) but so did the love 🫶🏼
Year after year, it’s been your votes that keep this dish ICONIC 🥇

🗳️ Voting is open NOW
