He added, “Bitbit ko ang ilang goodies from @wilkinsph, PPEs, at higit sa lahat — ang mainit na chibog mula sa aming tahanan. Isang pagpupugay at pasasalamat sa lahat ng reservists na volunteers at ilang linggo nang naka-deploy sa iba’t ibang lugar sa Luzon para tumulong sa ating mga kababayan.”
(We bring goodies from @wilkinsph, PPES, and most of all — the warm food from our home. A salute and thanks to all volunteer reservists who have been deployed at different areas in Luzon for weeks now to help our countrymen.)
The food they handed out to the frontliners were actually prepared by the actor’s wife, actress Marian Rivera. The actress has been using her cooking skills to help frontliners since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic.
“Arroz ala Cubana with boiled egg naman tayo ngayon para sa lunch ng ating frontliners at the checkpoints,” the actress captioned the photo.

“We used Ate Glenda’s recipe and these meals will be delivered to Lingayen Pangasinan and Pasay. Thank you Mahal @dongdantes for distributing in Pasay. Stay safe everyone!” she added.
