About Us
Meet NiƱa Jesica Tolentino, a passionate digital nomad, a talented food blogger, and a proud fur mom to 11 adorable dogs. As a dedicated partner, Nickah understands the importance of love and support in every aspect of life.
The term "takaw-tikim" is a Filipino phrase that captures the essence of a unique culinary experience. It refers to the act of tasting or trying out a variety of dishes without necessarily finishing each one. This delightful practice allows food enthusiasts to indulge in a diverse range of flavors, textures, and aromas, making it a true adventure for the palate.
Her culinary adventure began in 2017 when Zomato stumbled upon her captivating Instagram content and invited her to review a restaurant in Cubao, Quezon City. This opportunity marked the beginning of her flavorful food blogging journey, which has only grown in popularity and influence since.
Nickah Tolentino is not alone in her food blogging journey. She is joined by her partner, Gary Peralta Jr., an experienced IT professional with a passion for exploring new flavors and cuisines.
Together, as Team Takaw Tikim, they bring a unique blend of expertise and creativity to the table, creating engaging content that showcases their love for food and travel.
Their blog and social media channels are a testament to their love for food and their desire to share their experiences with others. From street food to fine dining, they cover it all, providing their followers with a glimpse into the diverse and delicious world of food.
With Nickah and Gary at the helm, Team Takaw Tikim is poised to continue its journey of culinary exploration and discovery, bringing their unique perspectives and insights to the world of food blogging.
Currently based in the picturesque town of San Nicolas, Ilocos Norte, Nickah continues to explore and share her love for gastronomic delights with her growing online community.
