Farmer’s Table replaced the Nurture Wellness Village’s former in-house restaurant, Gabriela. Although both offer farm-to-table goodness, the new restaurant is more attractive and lively because of its interiors. Also, the food choices are different from the former restaurant.

Farm Fresh Ingredients

Farmer’s Table is a restaurant that serves only the freshest ingredients available from Nurture Wellness Village organic farms and local farmers and suppliers within the community.

The restaurant not only promotes healthier eating but also encourages sustainable farming as well. This idyllic farm-to-table restaurant offers a unique dining experience that celebrates the flavors of fresh, locally sourced ingredients

Boutique Market

At the restaurant entrance, an outlet for local produce from their organic farm, potted plants and herbs, apothecary products from Nurture Wellness Village, and some souvenir items for sale.

The Artisanal Bakery

There are a variety of freshly baked bread and pastries made from organic ingredients that you would love to bring home. I bought Kale bread, Cheese Pimiento, and Choco Caramel Cake. The Kale bread is soft and with a generous amount of Kale, while the Cheese Pimiento is very cheesy and tasty. The Choco Caramel Cake is very rich and full of flavor. I was able to enjoy some of those goodies at home.

The Alfresco Dining Bistro

The restaurant is fully Alfresco, with tables and chairs kept at a minimum distance to ensure the customers’ safety during the pandemic. The place is spacious, with a high ceiling for the fresh air to circulate. The tree at the center of the dining area gave an extra touch of nature inside.

If you are the extra cautious type of customer, you may request to use the table near the garden, outside the high-roofed dining area. This space will give you peace of mind as you are on the safer side of the restaurant.

The food we have tried so far:

Plant-based Kale Salad P 395 -Kale & Romaine, Topped with Fresh Basil, Tofu Croutons, Crispy Garbanzos & Capers, Garlic Lemon Tahini Caesar dressing. This superfood salad is also super delicious and very refreshing to eat.

California-Style Roasted Rosemary Lemon Garlic Chicken P 695 – Stuffed Roasted Root Vegetables & Kale, served with griddled lemon & an Olive-Rosemary Jus. This perfectly tendered chicken is juicy and flavorful and is presented in a very appetizing manner.

Kamote Fries & Pecorino P150. Although nothing special, this sliced sweet potato sprinkled with cheese is also worth a try if you are on a less-carb diet. I liked that it has no added sweetener because it is already sweet. It could have been appetizing with generously sprinkled cheese.

Cookie Dough Cheesecake P320 – I usually skip the dessert but, how can I resist this divine treat when two of my favorites are here? This creamy cheesecake has a chocolate cookie crust and is topped with even more cookies.

Although the restaurant recommends making a reservation beforehand, they still accept walk-in customers. However,  waiting time may take an hour during peak times.

Overall impression:

• The Service – The staff at the reception are friendly and accommodating, while the wait staff and the cashier are disorganized. It was a disappointing experience to think that we waited for an hour to get a table yet, nobody wanted to take our order. It took us another 30 minutes to be noticed by the waiter. Also, paying our bills took a long time so I approached the cashier to get my card.
• The food – They offer quality food with the freshest ingredients available. Great tasting food.
• The Price – Reasonably priced considering its serving size, the freshness of the ingredients, and its taste.
• The place – The place is extensive and can accommodate many guests despite the socially distanced tables. It is clean and tidy. 100 percent alfresco.
• The Ambiance – Although it has relaxing scenery, the noise was loud during our visit probably, because of the many customers calling for the waiter’s attention. We walked around the vicinity after the meal and, it was enjoyable.
• Pet friendly – The restaurant allowed pets inside.
