The clock is ticking on Chef Josh Boutwood’s pop-up, Osteria, at The Balmori Suites, Rockwell. Closing on September 28, it has sparked curiosity among diners and earned praise from those who hold Italian classics closest to heart.
The menu is a love letter to Italian traditions, with Boutwood’s thoughtful touch. Starters ease you in: Frito Miso, golden and crisp with a bright anchovy emulsion, Zucchini and Radicchio salads tossed in lively vinaigrettes, and topped off with bold cheeses; and Chilean mussels simmered in white wine with spicy ’nduja and fresh parsley, arguably the standout of the menu.
Frito Miso, Zucchini Salad, and Mussels.
At Osteria’s core are the pastas, handmade and deeply comforting. Tortelloni filled with fresh crab and crab fat, Pappardelle with a hearty beef ragu, and the Lasagna layered with braised beef, béchamel, cheese, and sheets of pasta made fresh in-house.
Tortelloni and Lasagna.
Then comes the mains. The Pork Cotoletta, breaded and golden, is finished with a squeeze of lemon and sea salt, served with salad greens. The Barramundi al Forno brings a lighter touch, pairing roasted fish with fennel salad and chicken jus.

And no Italian table is complete without dessert. There’s tiramisu, with ladyfingers soaked in Nespresso coffee and layered with mascarpone vanilla cream, or panna cotta, silky and light, topped with blood orange syrup and roasted pumpkin seeds.
But what lingers is the experience. Tables close enough for conversations to flow, wine flowing freely, and every dish arrives with just the right amount of finesse. Osteria is not just about eating well; it’s about slowing down and simply enjoying good food and ingredients, no fuss.
Osteria, a 24-day dining experience from September 5 to 28, 2025.
The catch? It’s here only until September 28. Gather your friends, book a table, and experience a fleeting but extraordinary taste of Italy—right here at The Balmori Suites.
Open from Sunday to Thursday, 11AM to 9PM, and Friday to Saturday, 11AM to 10PM. For reservations, reach out via @popupsbyjoshboutwood.

Your Local, known for its innovative culinary experiences, presents its most ambitious event yet: Mat Nam, a three-part pop-up at The Balmori Suites Chef’s Table. This marks the first time chefs from South Korea’s hit show “Culinary Class Wars” will cook in the Philippines, featuring an entirely new, exclusive Balmori menu.
More than just guest chefs, these are co-creators. Each brings their unique culinary style to create dishes alongside Chef Patrick Go, resulting in a dynamic fusion of cultures, techniques, and flavors.

The Lineup: Three Unique Rotations, Four Acclaimed Chefs, One Extraordinary Table

April 6-23: Go x Lee x Choi – A Powerhouse Trio The series opens with Chef Young Sook Lee (Nakyung), celebrated for her refined traditional Korean flavors, and Chef Jihyung Choi (Michelin-recognized Leebukbang), known for his North-South Korean fusion. Combined with Go’s modern flair, expect rich, layered dishes with intense flavors.
April 26-May 14: Go x Bang – Modern Korean BBQ Reimagined Next, Go collaborates with Kisu Bang (Gitdeun), Korea’s first Michelin-starred head chef. Their partnership will highlight sleek, bold flavors, and creative synergy, focusing on modern Korean BBQ.
May 17-June 1: Go x Kim – The Yakitori King’s Grand Finale The series concludes with Byung Mook Kim (Yakitori Mook), the “Yakitori King,” known for his mastery of fire and umami. Expect a bold, smoky, and intensely flavorful finale.
This rotating format? It’s also a first for the Chef’s Table stage.
The Menu: Bold, Inventive, and Exclusively Balmori
Your Local’s Mat Nam menu is a complete departure from their usual offerings, crafted specifically for this pop-up. Highlights include the MSG (a mantou toast topped with shiitake, gorgonzola, and seaweed), Palabok Rice (a smoky, chicharon-studded twist on the Filipino classic), and River Prawns, torched with mentaiko and bathed in soy brown butter. Save room for dessert—the Choco na Gatas v2, featuring burnt milk ice cream and chocolate mousse.

Chef Choi offers Maekjeokgui, a 1,000-year-old grilled pork dish marinated in fermented soybean paste and spices for a smoky, umami-rich flavor. These are just a few standout dishes—every item on the menu hits the mark. Expect even more exclusive creations with each chef’s rotation.
