The Wholesome Table: Healthy Goodness without Compromising Flavor
Our experience at The Wholesome Table
Because of our busy schedules and also for practicality's sake, gone are the days when we would just dine out on a whim. We do, however, still love to treat ourselves to occasional indulgences.
|
|
Be Delightful |
Every once in a while, we would pamper ourselves with unhurried dinners;
taking our time to savor our food and enjoy leisurely bites.
One restaurant that we kept a constant eye on is The Wholesome Table, located at Salcedo Village. We knew it was quite pricey that was why we were hesitant to go.
But one evening after a growling downpour, without any plan or whatsoever, we gave in and decided to pay The Wholesome Table a visit.
We made our way through the dark Salcedo street, got lost, and for a moment, felt that we wouldn't make it. But after a brief consultation with Waze, we finally found the elusive place.
The Ambiance
The restaurant is enclosed in a small space, giving it an air of exclusivity while still remaining very inviting. The walls are almost spartan, save for some paintings and decors. It was homey, comfortable, and somehow familiar.
The Organic Movement
The restaurant was named as such because it specializes in serving organic
food, supposedly healthier than regular produce that is raised or cultivated
with chemicals.

Chicken salad |
Part of the never-ending quest for health and wellness seems to be to go organic. It may not be the panacea for physical illnesses but at least consuming organic food somehow lessens the guilt of indulging in rich and savory dishes.
The food at The Wholesome Table
Here at The Wholesome Table, once the menu is handed, the servers would immediately
give recommendations on drinks, appetizers, and mains.
|
| Gambaretti Arrabiatta |
The drinks are combinations of all-healthy stuff. While the names might sound like concoctions from a science experiment, the drinks actually taste nice. We had the “Be Delightful’ drink, a combination of carrot, apple, and orange for a good dose of antioxidants.
For the mains, there's a good selection of pasta, meats, and seafood. We ordered the chicken salad for appetizers. It had generous chunks of chicken on a
bed of crisp mixed greens. It has the goodness of freeze-dried blueberries,
apples, walnuts, celery, Parmesan cheese, and blueberry vinaigrette. It was well-dressed and definitely whets the appetite.
The Gambaretti Arrabiatta is also a winner. It's got a good helping of
shrimps, bacon with red tomato sauce and topped with a generous helping of
Parmesan cheese. It had a perfect balance of acidity, fresh seafood flavor, and saltiness.
|
| Meatloaf |
For the mains, we ordered meatloaf -- two thick slices of rich meat over mashed potatoes smothered with a rich and creamy bacon mushroom gravy. It was good and very comforting. The mashed potatoes were also flavorful but I had to have my meatloaf with rice -- take note, brown rice -- so it was obviously a
heavy meal.
But the one dish that we had our eyes on was the pork chops. We ordered 2
thick slabs of meat and had it sliced into chunks. It was served with slices of what seemed to be roasted potatoes. It was every meat lover's delight --
perfectly tender, seasoned well, and with a nice pink core. If there was one dish that we would always go back to at the Wholesome Table, it was this.
Our verdict
The Wholesome Table does not pretend to be a pocket-friendly restaurant. The food here has "expensive" generously sprinkled all over it. But while the price of the food may not be justifiable to some diners, I believe it’s better to let the quality of the food speak for the restaurant.
The Wholesome Table is for those who are looking for a place to enjoy excellent and healthy food in a quiet and relaxing setting.
For our fairly simple meal of salad, pasta, and meats, we paid Php2,210++. It’s definitely worth an occasional visit for those who would like to have a dose of healthy organic food, not just to fill the belly but to nourish the body.

This is 100% my kind of place to eat. I love how the Wholesome Table focuses on organic, healthy food like this and everything there mentioned here sounds fabulous.
ReplyDeleteThis looks like an amazing place to eat.
ReplyDeleteI love eating out and I'm glad that there's a restaurant that serves healthy and organic meals. I will definitely visit this place when I go back to Philippines. Thank you for featuring this restaurant my husband will love this place for sure!
ReplyDeleteI love that they serve healthy food in a relaxing setting. Reasonable naman yung price. Hehe! Looking forward to try their food. Nakakamiss na talaga kumain ng normal sa labas.
ReplyDeleteNakakamiss na yung magfoodtrip, Malapit lang yung place sa tinutuluyan nung friend ko, try naming puntahan ito, natakam kasi ako dun sa Gambaretti Arrabiatta. :)
ReplyDeleteSuper fancy, pero I'm sure all of those dishes are worth it sa servings and flavor. Haven't had a good meal like that in forever. hahaha
ReplyDeleteWaaah, I've been keeping a constant eye on this resto as well. And yes, dito sa tin, mahal talaga ang clean, real food without all the preservatives and all that. Kaya natatagalan din ako pumunta haha! Buti I saw this ...I was asking my husband for a date...but we couldn't decide on where to go. I think this is a good time for us to visit TWT here in BGC.
ReplyDeleteI've tried the Wholesome Table before and it's one of those restos you will not feel guilty eating too much cos they're healthy for you. It's a great place to catch up with friends too cos the ambience is nice. :)
ReplyDeleteI like their foods! We experienced dining at their BGC branch, and that is where I hosted by Boss' Birthday lunch!
ReplyDeletei havent tried this resto! but looks sarap ng mga food nila, i like the pasta and meat loaf most especially! inisip ko pa san ko na kita itong resto, ayun i saw yung BGC na location. so yun nga nadaanan ko na yata sya.me food for kids ba?
ReplyDeleteI've eaten here! it was last year ata or last last year.. yung binabalik balikan ko is the chicken salad too hahaha! pero I realized na you can usually do these too at home, need lang mag think outside the box and prep ng bongga for the initial grocery tapos pag sanay ka na hindi mo mamamalayan na mas nakakamura ka vs actually eating out.
ReplyDeleteYup, it's such a pity that we can't always enjoy the food at The Wholesome Table because of the lockdown.
