Explore Philippine Cuisine with Chef Andrew Paderes

HARD WORK and HEART WORK. Chef Andrew Paderes took to Mangrove Cafe his life's dream of creating opportunities in the hospitality industry through our cuisine, while staging Filipino food as globally acceptable, enjoyable and memorable.

From NOBU London to Gordon Ramsay's MAZE, the University of Sto. Tomas-grad Chef has made a mark in his 25+ years in the culinary scene. Chef Andrew was the first Filipino culinarian to be recognized in Taste of Dubai, an annual gastro festival, alongside celebrity chefs around the world. He was also listed in Illustrado Magazine's Most Influential Filipinos in the Gulf, and became a Filfood Culinary Ambassador.

But his greatest challenge is leading the team of Filipino culinary artists in curating the menu for Bangkóta's Mangrove Cafe. Explore Mangrove's vegan menu with Chef Andrew!
