In 1988, the 1771 Group of Restaurants opened with Chateau 1771, which became a staple for Filipino families throughout the years and generations. There are mornings that I still remember, which I spent sitting on its chairs and poring over the menu for an order I knew I would enjoy. I remember reaching out over the table and stabbing my fork on my older siblings’ orders. So really, it’s no wonder why Flatiron 1771, an addition from the group, creates that same feeling.
