When the longing for authentic Pinoy dishes strikes in the U.S., Isla Grand stands ready to transport your taste buds back to the Philippines.

Carmina is traveling to the United States to spend time with her family. My dad planned a family gathering for Mother's Day at their favorite Pinoy restaurant . Since reservations aren’t possible, we arrived an hour early to ensure we could get a table for twelve before everyone else showed up. As my dad approached Isla Grand , the branch we visited in Pleasant Hills, California , the host at the door said they could prepare a table for twelve at five o'clock. Later, the server called my dad's name and guided us to our table. The place was bustling with people enjoying meals and celebrating Mother's Day.

New Del Monte Fiesta Fruit Cocktail Mandarin Orange and Langka (Jackfruit)


During spring and summer, we often enjoy picnics at the park or beach, sharing a relaxing meal with people we feel comfortable with.

Even though Carmina cannot go out, she can still enjoy food at home that reminds her of the spring or summer outdoors.

Carmina discovered New Del Monte Fiesta Fruit Cocktail Mandarin Orange and Langka (Jackfruit) on Shopee Philippines Online Shopping.



Del Monte Philippines offered a bundle deal for PHP 119.00 ($2.38), including one Fiesta Fruit Cocktail Mandarin Orange and one Langka (Jackfruit). It's a great opportunity to try both, shipped and delivered to your doorstep (excluding shipping and handling). You can enjoy these on their own or prepare them the traditional Filipino way by making fruit salad or buko pandan, using my own recipes as a guide.
