Within the vibrant mosaic of Sharjah’s culinary scene, NaDerang Restaurant stands out as an oasis of authentic Filipino flavors, curated with passion by Liberty Cano Samonte-Galang. Owned and steered by Liberty Cano Samonte-Galang, NaDerang has metamorphosed from a humble culinary endeavor into a thriving gastronomic institution, offering a symphony of flavors that evoke memories of home.
Liberty’s journey as an entrepreneur is a testament to the indomitable spirit of resilience and the power of familial support. Born from a deep-seated passion for food and a desire to share the richness of Filipino cuisine, NaDerang’s inception was a labor of love undertaken alongside her mother, Brendalie Cano Samonte. Together, they embarked on a culinary odyssey, fueled by a shared vision to introduce the diverse flavors of Kapampangan cuisine to the bustling streets of Sharjah.
The ethos of NaDerang is encapsulated in its mission statement: “We don’t just cook, we care.” This mantra underscores Liberty’s unwavering commitment to providing not only delicious meals but also a dining experience imbued with warmth, authenticity, and hospitality.

The restaurant’s ascent to prominence within the Filipino community in Sharjah is a testament to its dedication to quality and affordability. Despite the presence of competitors, NaDerang has carved out a niche for itself as the go-to destination for those craving a taste of home. Liberty reflects, “Our customers depend on the quality and taste of our food. It feels like home and tastes like home.”
However, the path to success has not been without its challenges. Liberty’s own health struggles, stemming from a past brain surgery, have posed significant obstacles along the way. Yet, buoyed by the unwavering support of her family and the dedication of her team, she has persevered, turning adversity into opportunity and emerging stronger than ever.
For Liberty, NaDerang is not merely a business venture; it is a platform for sharing blessings and spreading joy. She finds fulfillment in being a conduit of God’s love and grace, touching the lives of her customers and community with each meal served.
Reflecting on her entrepreneurial journey, Liberty imparts invaluable advice to aspiring business owners: “Start small… End big. Have a solid business plan. Carefully think about what you really want. What are you passionate about?” Her words carry the weight of experience and the wisdom garnered from years of navigating the intricacies of entrepreneurship.
As NaDerang looks towards the future, Liberty’s vision is clear: to be recognized as the premier destination for authentic Filipino cuisine in the UAE and to become an integral part of her customers’ daily lives. With her unwavering dedication and the support of her team, there is little doubt that NaDerang will continue to delight palates and warm hearts for generations to come.
In Liberty’s own words, “Hard work with proper knowledge, support of loved ones, and God’s grace… you can achieve things you wanted.” And indeed, NaDerang stands as a living testament to that ethos
– a testament to the power of passion, perseverance, and the enduring bonds of community.
