OUR STORY
"I discovered this for myself as my previous work and my exploring nature took me across Asia, sampling the rich and diverse flavors of each country I visited."
- Jerry Erguiza president & co-founder

"There was the warm blend of sweet, spicy, and other indescribable flavors when I first tasted Ayam Bakar served with a fiery sambal as I visited a rice farming village in Padang.
There was the distinct tang of lemongrass in Vietnamese style chicken, which I savored with mounds of fresh herbs and other vegetables in a makeshift village eatery along the Mekong river. Then there was that memorable brunch of Lao grilled chicken with subtle and yet complex combination of flavors. Each bite savored with morsels of sticky rice with red beans cooked in bamboo tubes. My favorite street-side take-away on weekends! Over time, enough stories, enough dishes, enough experiences accumulated that it was not enough to simply remember them. And so, BUGONG was born: a restaurant that spotlights various Asian-inspired chicken dishes and flavors. It also shares a lifetime of experiences behind every dish. My stories and memories are woven within the interiors and décor of the store. Flavors are fresh, vibrant, healthy, and herb-based. BUGONG is more than chicken …. It is the story of my journey depicted in each recipe of our menu and your own travel anecdotes as you savor these unique flavors and exciting aromas." |
