It began as one corner café in Bonifacio Global City in 2012, opened by Ana Lorenzana de Ocampo with her sister Margarita Manzke. The bakery still runs through the night: croissants, kouign amann, the cinnamon bake and sourdough are laminated, proved and baked from scratch before the doors open.
The kitchen
Executive Chef Allen Buhay has run the kitchens since day one, after Le Cordon Bleu in California and stints at Jean-Georges in New York and Church and State in Los Angeles. The menus are engineered in-house and change with what the season gives them.
The dining room
Twelve Wildflour rooms across Metro Manila, from the BGC flagship to Rockwell, Greenbelt, Podium, Alabang and Opus. All-day brunch means the room turns over from a first coffee at seven to a table that stays until closing.
On the plate
Filipino-American comfort: kare-kare, chicken and pork adobo, kurobuta sinigang, brioche French toast, the fried chicken sandwich. Timeless dishes next to new ones, so a plate you love is always on the menu.
A point for every ₱100 spent, a birthday discount, fifteen per cent off weekday afternoons, and stamps towards a free drink. Ask a server after a single receipt of ₱1,000 or more.
An occasion, a craving, how many of you, anything to avoid and a budget. You get a hero dish and a set that fits, picked from the real To-Go catalogue, ready to drop into your bag.
