In the Cordilleras, moving fresh ingredients is a daily challenge, so highland communities have mastered the art of trapping flavor across time.

During our stay there, we watched how wood and elemental smoke are meticulously balanced to cure meats. We explored fascinating fermentation ecosystems and studied how fire, salt, and air became a core part of ancestral cooking methods.

Now, you can experience the soul of these techniques in our own menu. We’ve translated the raw brilliance of age-old preservation practices and unexpected depths of flavor into a full sensory journey that we’re proud to call ours.

Enjoy the Cordillera menu by booking your seat through the link in our bio or sending us a DM.

When we say that the Cordillera menu is the most physically demanding one we’ve ever built, we think back to the experience of navigating sheer cliff drops in the back of a pickup truck, Chef Nav driving through dense mountain fog, and contending with pure logistical exhaustion.

But every twist of the road rewarded us with something unforgettable— cloud-kissed ridges, breathtaking greens, and warm, inviting communities.

The isolated environment of the mountains told us a lot about Cordilleran food culture: Fresh ingredients are scarce. Conditions are different. Preservation is survival.

We invite you to taste these revelations in our new menu. Book your table now through the link in our bio.

When you take on the fulfilling yet occasionally unforgiving trek up Buscalan, you will find that a profound presence fills the air, especially upon meeting Apo Whang Od.

The 109-year-old mambabatok is a living testament to resilience and history. Every rhythmic strike of her mallet, driving orange thorns into skin, is an act of preservation—parallel to the ancestral cooking techniques of the Mountain Province. Just as a tattoo permanently marks the skin, our journey into the Cordilleras transformed how we approach Filipino food. Yet, long before we embarked to meet Apo Whang Od in person, we had already dedicated a space in Hapag to her legacy.

The next time you dine in the Apo Whang Od Private Room, you’ll be stepping into a story that has finally come full circle. Experience the deep flavors of the highlands and book your table at hapagmnl.com/reserve.

Behind every new menu at Hapag is a chaotic symphony of two minds and two friends volleying with one another. Chefs and longtime friends Nav and Thirdy take traditional techniques, understand their history, and hand you something unforgettable.

Our Cordillera Menu provides an up-close-and-personal look at how they explore, discover, and invent together. In Nav’s words, this was the hardest menu they’ve had to pull off. Yet he shares, “This is more like [our] cooking. [We] had to think deeply and use our stock knowledge and everything we learned throughout our careers to make this menu.”

The CAR Menu has a lot of moving parts, but it’s also an invitation into how Nav and Thirdy see food: technique-heavy, deeply rooted in history, and always meant to bring people together.

High up in the Cordilleras, food is a language of absolute unity. There, the spirit of bayanihan is very much alive in every shared hearth, kitchen, and rice paddy.

If a neighbor is working the land, the community moves to support them. They hardly cook for themselves. They cook to sustain the collective.

The practice of bayanihan, known as binnadang in the Cordilleras, (or ob-obbo, pachang, daun, and ub-ubbo in various Northern regions), is a tradition of cooperation where the only reward is the act itself. No work is too heavy when you work together and, over time, kindness becomes muscle memory.

Being up in the highlands reminded us of why we do what we do: it perfectly reflected our ethos of togetherness.

Gather your community around our table. We’ll share a glimpse of our journey up north. Book at hapagmnl.com/reserve or send us a DM.

The true kitchen of the Cordilleras is one shaped by the elements. Up in the mountains, rugged terrains and isolation have shaped an entirely different culinary language. There, we learned that cooking considers the art of preservation—the Cordilleras’ conversation and dance with time.

This menu, built around the incredible techniques Cordillerans have used for generations, is one of our biggest challenges yet, but also features the most personal and soulful food we’ve had the pleasure of serving. We can’t wait to share these with you.

Behind every seamless service is someone quietly holding the line. Meet Head Chef KC. She’s the heart, hustle, and discipline behind the pass at Hapag.

For Chef KC, showing up every day begins with a simple mantra: “Some days require passion. Every day requires DISCIPLINE.” This discipline is less about chasing perfection and more about being present, committed, and supportive.

When asked about what dish best encapsulates Hapag in her eyes, Chef KC shares: “It’s the Snackbox. It has many layers, [representing] regional Filipino cooking, culinary techniques, and the efforts of the team that creates it.”

See Chef KC and the team behind the pass at Hapag. Tables are open for reservation. Check the link in our bio.
