Flame Private Dining

<p>Choosing the perfect spot for a special gathering is never simple. It has to feel both effortless and remarkable—a space where the setting, the food, and the company come together beautifully. That’s exactly what awaits at <strong>Flame</strong>, perched on the 16th floor of <a href="https://www.instagram.com/discoveryprimea/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><strong>Discovery Primea</strong></a>—a contemporary, light-filled restaurant where sunlight spills across the tables and the city skyline frames every view. The atmosphere makes even an ordinary brunch feel rare—quiet, elevated, and effortless.</p><div><span class="fr-img-caption fr-fic fr-dib" style="width:900px"><span class="fr-img-wrap"><img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/17605594650021 Flame was the backdrop of our Private Dining launch, a space crafted for memorable dining experiences..jpg" style="width:900px" class="fr-fic fr-dib"/><span class="fr-inner">Step inside Flame, where art, light, and private dining meet | Photo: Discovery Primea</span></span></span></div><p>That sense of ease now extends beyond the restaurant’s main dining space.<strong> Flame Restaurant’s Private Dining concept</strong> caters to those who want intimacy, style, and zero stress—all in one elegant setting. David Pardo de Ayala, General Manager of Discovery Primea, explains, “Over the years, we noticed how much people value intimate celebrations. We were already curating customized menus for corporate dinners, social affairs, and embassy events. Private Dining lets guests enjoy all that without the planning—they just show up and savor the moment.”</p><div><span class="fr-img-caption fr-fic fr-dib" style="width:900px"><span class="fr-img-wrap"><img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/17605596409194 The Private Dining launch took place at Flame, where exceptional flavors and skyline views come together.jpg" style="width:900px" class="fr-fic fr-dib"/><span class="fr-inner">An elegant table set up for a private celebration | Photo: Discovery Primea</span></span></span></div><p>Metro experienced it firsthand during a leisurely brunch, where the cityscape framed every course and the space itself felt like a hidden gem brought to life.</p><p>Private dining can extend across three distinct spaces, each with its own character. There’s the sunlit serenity of the <strong>Urdaneta Dining Room &amp; Wing</strong>, the lively energy of the <strong>Ayala Dining Room</strong> overlooking Ayala Avenue, and the open-air<strong> Flame Al Fresco</strong>, with its view of city lights over Makati. Each space is designed to suit different gatherings, from intimate meals to celebratory events, giving hosts flexibility without losing the sense of exclusivity.</p><div><span class="fr-img-caption fr-fic fr-dib" style="width:900px"><span class="fr-img-wrap"><img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/17605597394025 Every detail prepared for a refined dining experience high above the city in Flame.jpg" style="width:900px" class="fr-fic fr-dib"/><span class="fr-inner">Menus, settings, sunlight—every element quietly in sync | Photo: Discovery Primea</span></span></span></div><p>Chef Luis Chikiamco led the kitchen with a menu that reflects the restaurant&#x27;s philosophy that combines globally inspired flavors, premium ingredients, and careful presentation. The brunch began with a <strong>burrata salad</strong>, a crisp mix of greens, cherry tomatoes, and garlic croutons, dressed in a glossy balsamic reduction. Chef Luis notes that the burrata is sourced locally—a small touch that gives the dish a grounded, thoughtful edge.</p><div><span class="fr-img-caption fr-fic fr-dib" style="width:900px"><span class="fr-img-wrap"><img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/176055981286440 The meal started out with Burrata salad which consisted of grape jam, baby greens, garlic croutons, and cherry tomatoes.jpg" style="width:900px" class="fr-fic fr-dib"/><span class="fr-inner">The fresh simplicity of the Burrata Salad | Photo: Discovery Primea</span></span></span></div><p>For the main course, guests could choose between two elevated brunch classics. The <strong>Josper-Grilled Canadian Striploin</strong> with truffle potato pavé, fried eggs, grilled asparagus, roasted king oyster mushrooms, and beef jus—a sophisticated riff on steak and eggs. Flame’s <strong>Eggs Benedict</strong> was reimagined with poached eggs, jamón serrano, piquillo peppers, garden chiffonade, tomato, and a tarragon hollandaise, bringing a subtle Mexican flair to the familiar favorite. Handpicked wines and cocktails complemented the courses, rounding out the brunch with a convivial energy.</p><div><span class="fr-img-caption fr-fic fr-dib" style="width:900px"><span class="fr-img-wrap"><img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/176055986028346 The Josper Grilled Canada Striploin was a Main guests could order at the Private Dining launch at Flame.jpg" style="width:900px" class="fr-fic fr-dib"/><span class="fr-inner">The Josper-grilled striploin redefines brunch indulgence | Photo: Discovery Primea</span></span></span></div><div><br/></div><div><span class="fr-img-caption fr-fic fr-dib" style="width:900px"><span class="fr-img-wrap"><img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/176055988576245 One of the highlights of the brunch—Eggs Benedict, served with Flame’s signature finesse.jpg" style="width:900px" class="fr-fic fr-dib"/><span class="fr-inner">Eggs Benedict, ready to be served | Photo: Discovery Primea</span></span></span></div><p>Dessert was a <strong>Gianduja Chocolate Bar</strong>, a layered creation of hazelnut praline, chocolate soil, and ginger ice cream—a decadent, textured finale.</p><div><span class="fr-img-caption fr-fic fr-dib" style="width:900px"><span class="fr-img-wrap"><img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/176055991066054 Gianduja Chocolate Bar was served at Flame_s Private Dining Launch as the sweet finale.jpg" style="width:900px" class="fr-fic fr-dib"/><span class="fr-inner">A decadent finale: Gianduja chocolate, hazelnut praline, ginger ice cream | Photo: Discovery Primea</span></span></span></div><p>Flame’s menus are as adaptable and thoughtful as the spaces themselves.
