What is Balesin's Yaya Meal?

Balesin’s ‘yaya meal’ plain discrimination, congressman commented. Balesin CEO: Calling 'Yaya meal' discrimination is inappropriate. According to Akbayan Representative Ibarra Gutierrez, the special meal for nannies served by the members-only luxury resort “highlights deep-seated nature of economic inequality and the disparity of opportunities for the haves and the have-nots in the country.”



In response to the "yaya meal" issue, Balesin finally broke its silence by posting on its Facebook account on Monday.
"We at Balesin Island Club do not understand this entire hullabaloo about the “yaya meal.” Any talk of discrimination is inappropriate. In fact, if the guest or member chooses to have the Club serve the “yaya” tenderloin steak and lobster thermidor, we will gladly serve it to the yaya. “Yaya meal” is merely an accommodation and an option for the guest for their “yaya”. Hence, we do not serve this meal if there is no instruction at all from the guest for a “yaya meal” to be served to a “yaya”. Incidentally, the yayas are thrilled with their meals because these are deliciously prepared by our chefs, as well, for our operating staff at Balesin."
