TAKAM
~ TAKAM, pronounced as /taˈkam/ or [tɐˈxam], refers to an intense desire or longing for something delicious, which is often accompanied by the physical response of salivating and smacking of one's lips and tongue

A hybrid concept bought to life from longterm friends, Francis Dela Cruz, Aileen Aguirre and Lesley Roque. Takam’s philosophy is about which showcases to their culture, nostalgia and passion for the traditional flavours and techniques of Filipino cuisine, but delivers in a elavated, harmonious and personalized manner. Takam are also inspired by the native Australian produce at Sydney’s doorstep, using native ingredients in their traditional cuisine and honouring both, will be at their forefront. Eat-in or carry-out lunch concept in a Market style shared space with Don’t Doughnuts and a casual 10-seat dinner (mid March) concept will be an additional offering to the funky and vibrant Darlinghurst.

Our food tells one part of the story, but so does everything it lands on.

Our thoughtful plates are handmade by the very talented Kimu , each piece quietly shines a light on elements of our Filipino heritage, while what sits on them celebrates the beautiful produce coming from farms across NSW.

Different soil, shared stories.

Filipino at heart, proudly shaped by NSW produce, and plenty of very good things in between.

Filipino food forward, always.
