Hey hey! i'm christina topacio.
Culinary Studio Founder • Brand Strategist • Experience Designer

Fifteen years building worlds for people to step into. Brand strategy, production, hospitality, food — I've always been drawn to the space where all of it overlaps.

Salo Salo is what lives there.
This is where my worlds come together on a plate. Filipino-rooted, design-forward, always built around cultural fluency and the quiet power of a table that feels like something.

The philosophy isn't complicated:
Flavor first. Connection always. Memories at the core.

Salo Salo isn't catering. It's a studio practice — where every plate, every tablescape, every pour is designed to feed your appetite and the room you're in. Food, yes. But mostly, it's a feeling.

We may have met somewhere along the way — if not, think of me as the one connecting the dots between brand, culture, and community.

Or maybe just met having a taste of one of my grazing landscapes or salted honey vanilla bean butta.

It’s all the same throughline tho — shaping ideas into something you can taste, hold, or share.
