The Wholesome Table is excited to announce the opening of its newest location at Shangri-La Plaza Mall, bringing its renowned commitment to health, sustainability, and delectable, organic dishes to the heart of Ortigas. A decade ago, The Wholesome Table first opened their doors in BGC, with the desire to go back to basics and work with fresh, clean food, that’s free from toxins. Today, the restaurant has become synonymous with wholesome, feel-good eating, offering customers a relaxed yet casually refined dining experience where taste and wellness are prioritized.
“There is a misconception that organic food is, number one vegetarian only, and two, it’s bland,” The Wholesome Table corrects this misconception by offering tasty meat and plant-based comfort food. “I figured Filipinos will enjoy this because they can still have the many dishes they’re used to eating such as burgers, pork, and pizza, but they’re less guilty because they come from good sources, made with better and healthier ingredients,” Bianca Araneta-Elizalde, the mompreneur who started it all.
Founded on the belief that food can nourish both the body and the soul, The Wholesome Table is still just as committed to providing organic, farm-to-table meals made with ethically and sustainably sourced ingredients as they were 10 years ago. With each dish & beverage carefully crafted to balance flavor and nutrition, guests can indulge in everything from comforting classics to innovative, gluten-free, and plant-based options, all made without artificial additives, refined sugar, or harmful preservatives.
“Our mission is to bring people together over good, honest food that supports a healthy way of life,” she shared. “We are thrilled to extend our food philosophy to the Ortigas crowd with this new location at Shangri-La Plaza. We want to inspire our community to eat well, live well, and embrace a mindful way of eating.” The brand’s goal is “to build a healthy food culture where people can begin to make informed decisions about what they eat and take charge of their health, by educating them about natural, organic food, nutrition, and the environment. After all, it is one of the few things consumers can control in life,” shared Bianca. As their brand motto goes, “Eat consciously. Live consciously.”
Opening their newest branch in one of the metro’s central business districts is all part of their growth plans. With their Salcedo and BGC branches already buzzing with regulars and having a sense of community, it’s time to expand and grow further elsewhere. The pandemic may have forced them to shut down a couple of branches, but it is now the brand’s season to rebuild.
Located on the ground level of the newly renovated Streetscape at Shangri-La Plaza, The Wholesome Table provides a versatile space perfect for casual lunches, business meetings, and weekend brunches. It features a modern farmhouse interior with many natural elements that reflect The Wholesome Table’s eco-friendly ethos, offering a refreshing break from the bustle of urban life. Guests can look forward to a diverse menu highlighting fresh, organic ingredients sourced directly from trusted local farms. The welcoming atmosphere is complemented by knowledgeable staff eager to share their passion for wholesome gastronomy. To celebrate this milestone, the classics are brought back to the menu just in time for the festive holidays, such as the:
Paella Mariscos (wild caught snapper, Chilean mussels, Valencian style rice, aioli)
Everyone is invited to visit The Wholesome Table’s newest branch at Streetscape, Level 1 of Shangri-La Plaza’s Main Wing. Come for the food, stay for the community, and leave with a heart full of joy and a belly full of organic goodness.
