Snacks for a Good Time and Good Photos: How Millenials Choose Their Food for Barkada Hang Outs

One thing that sets millennials and Gen Z apart from other generations is our social media presence. With Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and many new forms of social media, we have documented our young lives online. This has helped us share and learn new pieces of information and experiences. While it has its obvious pitfalls, exposure to social media has also elevated our worldview and consciousness from something as simple as vacations to complicated issues like politics and economy.

Eating is something that has become widely shared and upgraded due to social media. You can easily see pictures of barkadas enjoying their time together with food and drinks. Of course, you can also see carefully photographed images of the food that they are sharing. These days, due to the pandemic, it can be quite hard to have the usual chill out times with friends. For me and my friends, we usually just have quick home visits for a movie or simply to catch up. We usually share a platter of finger food for these wholesome afternoon activities before the curfew comes and we have to head back to our own homes. For millenials, taste and quality are the top two things we look for in food, and a close third is the visual of the food. Whatever it is, pasta, soups, or snacks, they have to look good to post on social media.

To save more time, we opt to just order online food and delivery comes in no time. We can save effort and energy by having our pika-pika food party prepared for us by a trusted service. When getting finger food for a party, we always turn to Xpress Eats. They have the perfect choices that are prepared carefully with local and homegrown ingredients. Snacking on their finger food doesn’t feel unhealthy at all because the quality is ensured with each bite. Of course, as millenials, we post spreads of our food on our Instagram stories, and Xpress Eats helps us out with that as well. Their food is always vibrant and fresh, making it perfect for photos. Some of our favorite orders are buffalo chicken wings, calamari’s fritos, and breaded shrimp with tartar sauce. These three always give us a good time and good photos. For your next barkada gathering, make sure to get your food from Xpress Eats and you’ll proudly feed your friends and your social feed!
