The Max’s Story
In 1945, after World War II, Maximo Gimenez, a Stanford-educated teacher,
befriended American occupation troops stationed in Quezon City, Philippines.
A few would come to his house for a drink or two. Eventually they insisted that
they pay for their meals. It was then that Maximo decided to open a café that
served chicken, steak and drinks.
To help him with the café, his wife Mercedes, and his sister-in-law Felipa, joined
him together with her niece Ruby, who managed the kitchen with her husband
Claro. It was Ruby who concocted a special recipe for chicken. The American troops
kept coming back for more of the delicious tender, crispy chicken. Soon enough,
it became a legend with the Filipino public too!
Encouraged by her mother to expand the menu and serve more Filipino food,
Ruby put up the Baclaran branch along Roxas Boulevard in Parañaque. It was
decided that the restaurant would be named “Max’s” which was Maximo’s nickname.
Over the years, Max’s Restaurant’s popularity grew and became known as
“The House That Fried Chicken Built.”
To date, Max’s operates over a hundred restaurants all over the Philippines. Aiming to
be a competitive international brand, Max’s expanded its operations overseas and
now has branches in North America and the Middle East. Hoping to serve and bring
this well-loved Filipino fried chicken recipe to the world’s discriminating palate, we
will continue to broaden our reach as we open new stores in new territories in the
years to come.
We thank you for your patronage and continued loyalty to us all through the years.
We are delighted to serve you our famous fried chicken and other Filipino favorites!
