Earth Kitchen Restaurant - Farm to Table Treat

With so much food choices and with such a very busy and fast- paced schedules it is so hard to maintain a healthy lifestyle. Oftentimes, healthy and quality food options does not always equate to delicious and filling food. When we think of indulging, we usually think the more "sinful" it is, the better.

One fine day, on a rainy holiday afternoon, my wife and I were invited to experience and taste what Earth Kitchen has to offer. I have been hearing a lot of good reviews on Earth Kitchen prior to this visit but never got the chance to actually visit their branch in White Plains. It is good to know that they have already expanded and opened in BGC, which is more accessible for us.

Earth Kitchen is a partnership project of Hizon's Catering and Got Heart Farms, from which the produce and ingredients used in the restaurant are sourced. Earth Kitchen is dedicated to support and showcase products that are produced by local farmers and communities in the Philippines. By increasing the demand for organic and natural produce, the more the livelihood of these communities are sustained. For the consumers, we are assured of good, clean and healthy food every time. The food are cooked and made fresh in the kitchen, from the pasta to the ice cream and soup.

Freshness is not only reflected in the food that they serve but also in the ambiance and interiors. As soon as you walk in, you get the feeling that you are somewhere near a farm.

The food started to arrive and there were so much that we didn't actually know where to start! We were also happily surprised that there were so much variety that will surely satisfy every craving.
