Serving specially prepared organic comfort food, Skunk #20 Caf\u00e9<\/strong> is a new old find that opened its gates on 20 Maginhawa Street in Quezon City last July.<\/p>\n

\"\"Skunk #20 Cafe has opened its gates.<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

For the frequenters of Maginhawa, the address may sound familiar. The new groovy organic restaurant that is called Skunk #20 Caf\u00e9 occupies the space that used to be Green Daisy Organic Restaurant, a restful haven of wholesome dishes and source of organic products.<\/p>\n

Now managed by the next generation of organic farmers in the family, Skunk #20 serves quality home-made organic food that’s affordable for budget-conscious foodies. They’ve also made the place more welcoming and accessible by opening the tall wooden gates that obscure the natural idyll. The wide-open gates will surely draw you in, just like it did to us.<\/p>\n

\"\"An idyllic dining place.<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n

Whether you\u2019re a salad lover or not, you must not miss the chance to try Skunk #20\u2019s Gourmet Salad with Green Daisy Vinaigrette<\/strong>. It is prepared with the usual greens, with thin carrot and beet strips, which, aside from making the dish look more colorful, makes it even healthier.<\/p>\n

If you want a filling meal, try Skunk\u2019s Sizzling Sisig<\/strong>, a healthy and palatable rendition of the Filipino favorite. Served with their own chili sauce and topped with home-made chicharon, the mushy and crispy textures create a perfect harmony in this dish. It is best enjoyed with their mixed red and white rice, which is grown and harvested from their own organic farm.<\/p>\n

Another of Skunk #20\u2019s unique offerings are the health shots<\/strong>. If you want to feel super, they have different kinds of fermented fruit and vegetable drinks that will surely give you more than an apple a day can. For instance, the 3-C<\/strong> health shot, made with cucumber, carrots and celery, not only boosts your immune system but also gives you a strong kick in the process. The Labs<\/strong> health shot, a probiotic drink made with goat’s milk and rice water, has a lot of health benefits but especially makes your gut happy. Gulp down your health shot and instantly feel a zing!<\/p>\n

When you walk inside Skunk #20, it\u2019s not only the greens and the solid wood tables that will grab your attention. The artworks and painted walls are also unmistakable. Not only is Skunk #20 a place for a nice and healthy fill but also does it harbor an artist-run gallery called Project 20 featuring artworks by different contemporary artists every few weeks. Skunk #20 completely surrenders the art space to them, letting the artists freely express themselves and do whatever they want beyond four-sided art frames.<\/p>\n

Even their menu was artistically and wittily hand-drawn by someone in the family.<\/p>\n

\"\"You will enjoy checking every page of their menu.<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n

\"\"Art exhibit by featured artists Josh Praxidio and Wes Olayvar.<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n

You can still find the retail corner of Green Daisy Organic at Skunk #20 Cafe, where you can take away many of their organic products and farm goodies like red, black, brown and white rice, chili sauces, probiotic concoctions, fruits, vegetables, meat, and more.<\/p>\n
