PALAY
The full Filipino dining story: thoughtful, rooted and made for sitting down together.

Bohrat is the café expression of the same Filipino house behind Palay and Barangay — coffee, breakfast, warm bread and familiar flavours made for everyday Melbourne.
Palay, Barangay and Bohrat are three ways of welcoming people into the same Filipino house.
Palay is the dining room. Barangay is the long communal table. Bohrat is the morning kitchen — coffee, breakfast, pandesal and the cheeky bunso energy that keeps the house moving.
The full Filipino dining story: thoughtful, rooted and made for sitting down together.
Catering, functions and celebrations that take the Filipino table into the community.
Strong coffee, warm pandesal, breakfast and enough attitude to get away with being a little bastos.
Good coffee should be easy to come back to. Full cream, skim, soy, oat or almond — same price. Bohrat makes coffee the everyday anchor, while the specialty drinks that grew up at Palay now get a permanent café home.
This remains a preview while the launch menu develops.
Warm Filipino bread and a proper cup of coffee.
Garlic rice, egg and Filipino breakfast favourites.
Eggplant omelette brought naturally into brunch.
Warm rice porridge for cold mornings and the mornings after.
A café-format idea with Filipino flavour at the centre.
Pork Tocino · Beef Tapa · Chicken Adobo. Golden, handheld and made for kape, with banana ketchup on the side.

Bohrat gets the loud red, the coffee cup and the bunso personality. What it inherits from Palay and Barangay is more important: Filipino identity, generosity, hospitality and a belief that our culture can be contemporary without becoming unrecognisable.
A focused café menu, limited seats and room to grow. Same house, new morning routine.
