TUSTIN, California - A Filipino-American self-described food-a-holic is in the running for a $10,000 grand prize and a two week trip throughout Asia.
Marian Bacol Uba, known online as Marian the Foodie, is a top five finalist for Pei Wei Diner’s Blog Asia Competition.
A marketing manager for a technology firm, Uba’s food blogging skills can win her a two-week vacation through five countries and a $10,000 cash prize.
During the Asia trip, the winner will get to blog about the local cuisines that they will eat. The winner will be announced later this month, after Pei Wei interviews the finalist.
Readers are asked to post comments on Pei Wei’s Facebook page whom they would like to see win the grand prize. Blogging skills, personality, and popularity will be some of the criteria in their selection.
Uba said, “I’m really, really passionate about all this. I basically eat, breathe, and everything is about food. And sharing that with others, that’s why I got into blogging. I want to share these foods with other people.”
