Abi Marquez has been winning in life these past couple of years, but things have really been on the up for the Gen Z food content creator as of late. This year alone has seen Abi become the first Filipino to win a Webby Award, be nominated for a prestigious James Beard Award, and be included in the 2024 edition of Forbes Asia’s 30 Under 30 list—just Lumpia Queen things.
Adding to the list of Abi’s recent successes? Her flurry of international collabs she’s been dropping on us left and right. Unexpected? Yes. But are we eating them up? You bet. Abi has said that she hopes to use her platform to promote the best of Filipino food and culture to a global audience, and that’s exactly what she’s doing with these collabs. Check out some of them below.

Imagine getting to say you made sinigang for Saweetie? That’s the case for Abi when she made the rapper her favorite Filipino dish, sinigang na salmon (her taste!).
LUMPIA WITH UNCLE ROGER
Honestly, their paths were gonna cross one of these days. And that day finally happened when the two content creators made lumpia together as Uncle Roger became Tito Roger. They also collaborated on another video where Abi introduced him to Filipino snacks.
KIMCHI FRIED RICE IN LUMPIA WRAPPER WITH DOOBYDOBAP
@abigailfmarquez How do Asians like their food? SPICY & WITH RICE 🔥🍚 Kimchi fried rice @doobydobap would approve! #foodporn #food #foodlovers #foodlover #foodieph #foodie #delicious #fyp #tiktokfood #foodtok #recipe #cooking #foodlover #delicious #yummy #abimarquez #lumpiaqueen ♬ original sound – Abi Marquez
The moment we saw this collab on our FYP, we knew we won fr. Lowkey we would try kimchi fried rice fried in a lumpia wrapper because it looked good.
MANGO SAGO WITH TASTY
Abi Marquez and Rie McClenny on a video for Tasty? This is our multiverse of madness. When two queens come together for a joint slay, or, in this case, mango sago and peach mango lumpia.

Abi matched Chef Rush’s freak, and we love to see it. The only thing we loved more was how good that Bicol Express looked.
CHARLIE CHAN PASTA WITH QCP

That was a wild ride in the kitchen, but that Charlie Chan pasta looked fire. And over on QCP’s account, they made Pancit Habhab and had a bitchin’ time.
SORBETES WITH ALBERT CAN COOK
@abigailfmarquez WRONG TUB 😱❌ @albert_cancook Sorbetes or Filipino Street Style Ice Cream #food #foodlovers #foodlover #foodieph #foodie #filipino # #cooking #delicious #yummy #instafood #foodvlogger #foodblog #mukbang #eating #foodieph #foodblogger #instagood #foodtrip #abimarquez #lumpiaqueen ♬ original sound – Abi Marquez
Abi out here bringing Filipino culture wherever she goes, like with the ice cream tub filled with frozen fish (a Pinoy staple), then making Ube-flavored sorbetes with content creator Albert Can Cook.
KARE-KARE WITH KEVIN LEE
@abigailfmarquez Crispy Kare-Kare with Chef @Kevin 🥜🍆 #foodporn #food #foodlovers #foodlover #foodieph #foodie #delicious #fyp #tiktokfood #foodtok #recipe #cooking #foodlover #delicious #yummy #abimarquez #lumpiaqueen #karekare #crispy ♬ Param-Pam-Pam – Carlos Campos
Kare-Kare has always been that Filipino dish, something these two chefs gave a luxurious spin on to make it even better. And the less said about the peanut butter, the better.
KANTO-STYLE FRIED CHICKEN WITH AHMAD ALZAHABI

That kanto-style fried chicken? Send it to us please Abi and Ahmad. That was crunchy with a capital C.
BONUS: EATING JOLLIBEE IN FRONT OF BENNY BLANCO
@abigailfmarquez Eating jollibee infront of Benny Blanco 😂 Paid 35$ to meet him and say I’m from the land of jollibee 😌🙌 #food #foodlovers #foodlover #foodieph #foodie #filipino # #cooking #delicious #yummy #instafood #foodvlogger #foodblog #mukbang #eating #foodieph #foodblogger #instagood #foodtrip #abimarquez #lumpiaqueen ♬ original sound – Abi Marquez
When she isn’t putting all kinds of food in lumpia wrappers, Abi is defending the honor of Filipino food staples abroad. The way she paid $35 to get into Benny Blanco’s meet and greet and then eat Jolli Spaghetti is so mother of her.
