Many of the most well-loved fairy tales revolve around the plight of common men and women who, by lots of virtue and plenty of luck, climb out of poverty reaching goals once thought unbelievable.

Such is the story of Alex and Engracia “Aling Asiang” Reyes, a simple hardworking couple whose small venture into the restaurant business 75 years ago allowed them to prevail over hardship and forever etched an indelible icon in the Filipino food industry – The Aristocrat.
