I LOVE AUSSIE LAMB FEST KICKS OFF IN METRO MANILA

Austrade brings the taste of Australian Lamb to top restaurants

Manila, Philippines — The “I Love Aussie Lamb” Fest officially launches in Metro Manila, celebrating the premium quality and versatility of Australian Lamb. Led by the Australian Trade and Investment Commission (Austrade), the festival brings together some of the Philippines’ top restaurants to showcase innovative lamb creations across a wide range of dining concepts.

From fine dining to family restaurants, casual favorites, and even burger joints, participating venues highlight how Aussie Lamb can be enjoyed in countless ways and on every occasion.

“Aussie Lamb has always been about premium quality, sustainability, and flavor that inspires chefs and delights diners. Raised on open pastures and nourished on natural grass, Aussie Lamb is naturally rich in protein, vitamins, and essential nutrients, making it a wholesome and nutritious choice,” said Luisa Rust, Australian Senior Trade and Investment Commissioner.

She added, “We’re delighted to see leading restaurants across the Philippines—from fine dining to casual eateries—embracing Aussie Lamb and showcasing its versatility in truly innovative ways.”

Diners can now enjoy special lamb dishes at I am Angus, Chesa Bianca, Cyma, Discovery Primea, Souv, Dr. Wine, Mamacita, Bondi & Bourke, Brothers Burger, Blackbird, Elaia, Hossein’s, Persia Grill, People’s Palace, and Sala.

With more cuts of Australian Lamb now available in the Philippines, it has never been easier to prepare dishes that suit every cooking style and dining occasion. Whether grilled, roasted, stewed, or braised, Aussie Lamb is perfect for Filipino classics like kalderetaadobo, and sinigang, as well as international favorites such as Mediterranean roasts, Middle Eastern kebabs, and Asian stir-fries.

The festival also builds on the work of celebrated chef Roby Goco, who has long championed Australian Lamb in the Philippines through his restaurants Cyma Greek Taverna and Souv! by Cyma. In 2024, he was appointed the first Filipino “Lambassador” by Meat & Livestock Australia under a global project to promote Australian Lamb.
