For centuries under the island sun, tradition has been crafting us a well-loved delicacy that even present-day generations continue to savor and crave. Across the Philippine archipelago—despite large masses of land and bodies of water separating the regions and creating thousands of distinct cultures—Filipinos have collectively preserved the process of creating this dish and turned it into art: Daing.
Today, one particular name is taking this art into many new levels above the sea. MyChef’s Resident Chef, Ice Arrojado, talks to Chef Arnold Bernardo, who sits at the helm of this delectably “fishy” business.

Everything handmade, homemade, and made with love. That is essentially what "The Better Kitchen" is. What started as making cakes and pies for friends and family, soon extended to a low-key brand that was only known by word of mouth. The kind that you only know of because you tasted from a friend, or tasted at a potluck, or saw on a friend's Facebook or Instagram feed.
Arleen Bautista, the mastermind behind The Better Kitchen, believes in consistency and excellence in quality—that means everything from choosing the best ingredients, to careful preparations, up to packaging. She says that she always wants everything to be exactly the way she wants it to look, if she's the client herself. Hence, all her products are handmade, prepared by herself, with the help of her, co-conspirator and husband, Benj, as well as her two sidekick daughters, Shanice and Angel.
