VANCOUVER \u2013 Max’s Restaurant: Cuisine of the Philippines Vancouver celebrates its 2nd Year Anniversary on May 25, 2014.<\/p>\n

In the past two years, Max\u2019s Restaurant has truly defined itself as a Pinoy Landmark in Vancouver. It has become a hub for businesses to conduct events and functions for their partners and customers, a venue for politicians and community leaders to voice their campaigns, and a spot for celebrities from the Philippines and other parts of the world to have a Meet & Greet with members of the Filipino media and their fans.<\/p>\n

We\u2019ve seen politicians and leaders including BC Premiere Christy Clark, Minister of State for Seniors & Member of the Parliament (MP) Hon. Alice Wong, Minister of Veterans Affairs & MP Hon. Julian Fantino, Minister of International Trade & MP Hon. Ed Fast, Minister of State for Multiculturalism & MP Hon. Tim Uppal, Senator Yonah Martin, and the very first Filipino Canadian appointed by Prime Minister Stephen Harper, Senator Jun Enverga.<\/p>\n

Representatives from the Philippine Consulate General in Vancouver and Toronto, Philippine Tourism and Philippine Overseas Labor Office also visited the \u2018House that Fried Chicken Built\u2019.<\/p>\n

Philippine International Artists have become a regular scene at Max\u2019s; with stars and legends like Janno Gibbs, Aegis, Jose Mari Chan, Parokya ni Edgar, Mocha Girls, Aljur Abrenica, Kris Bernal, Chokoleit, Pokwang, K Brosas and Pooh coming to meet their fans.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt has been an incredible two years here at Max\u2019s Restaurant. We arrived in Vancouver to serve Authentic Filipino Cuisine that many Filipinos missed from back home in the Philippines and to share with Canadians from all walks of life, race and culture. We did not expect that we would become the centre for these stars and notable personalities. We are thankful for everyone\u2019s support especially that from the Filipino community. This success would not have been possible if it weren\u2019t for our loyal patrons. \u201d Says Cecile Pratt, Managing Director.<\/p>\n

In the next few months, expect no less at Max\u2019s with the arrival of Charice Pempengco, Florante and so much more. To find out how to win Concert Tickets, please visit Max\u2019s at 3546 Kingsway, Vancouver, BC V5R 5L7.<\/p>\n
