Born from Fire, Built on Conviction
Ember is the latest creation of Chef Josh Boutwood — one of the Philippines' most unconventional culinary forces. Located at Greenbelt 3 in Makati City, it is a restaurant that smolders with sophistication.
The concept was born from Boutwood's belief that fire — raw, primal, and honest — is the most truthful tool in any kitchen. Unlike his other concepts, Ember strips away cuisine labels. There is no category, no single country of origin. Instead, Boutwood gathers inspiration from multiple cultures and channels it through flame.
The kitchen employs a full range of heat: convection, stone hearth, stovetops, and a custom smoker that infuses each dish with a distinctly smoked essence. The result is a menu that doesn't belong to any single tradition — and is all the better for it.
Expect nothing but the best. No boundaries. Just exceptional food.
