Bonifacio High Street is one of our favorite places to dine. We've got a whole loads of food adventures at Bonifacio Global City including paying to join food tours like the
BGC Eats Food Tour 2013 and twice for the
BGC Food Tour 2014. But, believe me there are still so many food establishments there that we have yet to try. So, when we were invited to the a food bloggers event called "
Bonifacio High Street Food Crawl" organized by
Bonifacio High Street and the
Mercato Centrale team of
RJ Ledesma and
Anton Diaz of
Our Awesome Planet, we knew we couldn't miss such an amazing invite.
First Stop: The Wholesome Table
Starting things right with something healthy, our first stop is at
The Wholesome Table. It is a concept by health advocate
Bianca Elizalde.
According to their statement at a board plastered on its wall, they are committed to serving fresh, natural and real so all their produce comes from organic sources except fo their cheese, meats used are grass-fed, poultry and eggs are free-range, products are sourced locally whenever possible and seafood are wild-caught. I especially like the part that states that they don't use high-fructose corn syrup or any artificial stuff and try to avoid using shortening and partially hydrogenated fats (these are converted into trans-fats when heated!).
