Gallery by Chele

  It’s been a few years since we enjoyed this meal at Gallery by Chele, one of the best fine dining restaurants in Manila. It’s helmed by Spanish Chef Chele Gonzalez of Gallery VASK fame. Now closed, Gallery VASK was his award-winning restaurant that ranked as high as number 35 on the list of  Asia’s 50 Best Restaurants . Born in northern Spain, Chef Chele worked at some of the world’s best restaurants like El Bulli, Mugaritz, and El Celler de Can Roca before moving to Manila and opening Gallery VASK in 2013. He would shutter that restaurant in 2017 before revamping and reopening it as Gallery by Chele in May 2018. Being from Spain, Chef Chele’s roots are in Spanish cuisine but he aims to celebrate Filipino food by applying modern techniques to local ingredients and presenting them in a more contemporary way. These pictures were from 2018 so I don’t know if he still makes these dishes, but the perfect example of Chef Chele’s cooking concept is this fun dish called  Breakfast . Made wit
