Two weeks, one area, pre-orders only. The goal is not to launch. The goal is to find out if people pay for these wings twice, and to find out for under P3,000.
Likes and shares do not count. Paid orders count. Repeat orders count double, because the slogan is a repeat-rate promise. Hit these numbers and you have proof and a reason to spend more. Miss them and you learn why for less than the price of a phone case.
Settled: "2 wings" means 2 pieces (a flat or a drumette each), not 2 whole wings. At P175 a kilo and about 22 pieces per kilo, one piece costs about P8. Here is what each menu item earns.
Estimates assume about 22 pieces per kilo (11 whole wings, cut into flat and drumette, tips set aside for stock). Today, count the pieces in the kilo and weigh a few. If the supplier in Angono sells them already cut, ask the price. The platter is P26.50 a piece against P42.50 in the bowl and still earns about P83, so it is your upsell, not a discount.
Your split is right. The only disagreement in the document is how many kilos of wings you are buying: 1, 2, or 5 depending on which line you read.
| Bucket | Total | Each |
|---|---|---|
| Breading, without wings | 173 | |
| Flavor bases, 5 flavors | 946 | |
| Rice, 2 kg | 110 | |
| Packaging (bowls, paper, spoons, sticker) | 474 | |
| Subtotal, matches your P855 each | 1,703 | 855 |
| Wings, 2 kg at P175 | 350 | 175 |
| Drinks supplies (your list adds to 704) | 704 | 352 |
| Total to start | 2,757 | 1,379 |
Fuel at P1,500 a month sits outside this, and it is the only recurring cost you listed. That line says "gasoline, Taguig", which reads as transport. Cooking gas (LPG) is not on the list anywhere.
At about P46 a bowl, 50 bowls is roughly P2,300 of margin: a month of fuel and a third of the startup money back, in two weeks. Drinks and platters come on top of that.
Cup, straw, ice, and flavor land near P9 a serving. At P25 to P30 a cup, that is a P16 to P21 margin, better than the bowl. Add "Lychee or Blueberry cooler, P25" to the menu board before the test starts. Bundle: bowl + drink P105.
None of these stop the test. All of them bite within a month if they stay blank.
Two pieces is settled. What is not: how big a piece. Weigh a few today. If the Angono wings run small, the bowl looks thin at P85, and people notice that before they taste anything.
Wings come from Angono, fuel is Taguig. Pick one area for the test and one way to order: message the FB page. Write down the pickup address and the delivery radius.
One GCash QR for the business, one shared sheet, every peso in and out logged. You are a couple splitting 50/50. Write the split down now while it is small and friendly.
GrabFood and Foodpanda take 25 to 30%. On a P85 bowl that is the whole profit. Direct orders only until you know your real cost per bowl.
Honey, parmesan, cream, cheese spread, and salted egg each serve mostly one flavor. Five means five things to run out of. Launch with three. Today's taste test picks them.
LPG is a real cost per batch. Permits are not needed for a two-week pre-order test from home, but they are needed before a stall. Note the dates.
"Wings that keep you coming back" is a repeat claim. Every order must produce a name and a number you can message again. That list is the business.
The menu says java rice. The list has butter and garlic but no annatto (atsuete) or margarine. Add them, or call it garlic rice.
Cook all five. Score each from 1 to 5. Keep the top three. Be honest, you are choosing what to defend for two weeks.
| Flavor | Taste | Looks in bowl | Easy to cook | Cheap to make | Total | Keep? |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Cheesy | ||||||
| Creamy Salted Egg | ||||||
| Honey Garlic | ||||||
| Buffalo | ||||||
| Garlic Parmesan |
Also record today: pieces per kilo, grams per piece, minutes to fry one batch, and how many bowls one batch of sauce covers. Those four numbers replace the estimates above.
Do not build a website, do not sign up for a delivery app, do not print more stickers. Messenger, GCash, and one spreadsheet are the whole system for the first 50 orders.
Your barangay plus one office or school where one of you already knows people. Small and close beats wide and far. Delivery by hand within that area only.
Friday, Saturday, Sunday. Orders close at 12 noon, pickup or delivery 5 to 7 pm. A cutoff means you buy exactly the wings you need and throw nothing away.
Three flavors, bowl P85, platter P159, drink P25, bowl + drink P105. Real photos of your bowl, taken in daylight, not the AI art. People buy what they can see.
GCash before cooking, or cash on pickup for people you know. Reply with one line: name, order, flavor, time. Copy that line into the sheet before you start frying.
Columns below. The sheet is not admin work. It is the proof you are trying to produce.
One sentence, from the page: how was it, and next cook day is Friday. Count who orders again. That is your repeat number.
Bowls sold, repeat buyers, flavor mix, real cost per bowl, cash left. Then read the verdict below.

You have 50 paid orders, 10 repeat names, and a margin that held. Now it is worth spending: a bigger wings buy from Angono at a better per-kilo price, a simple mobile order page so the customer list grows on its own, and a permit so you can take a stall or a weekend market slot. Bring the sheet to that conversation. It is your pitch.
Read the sheet before changing anything. Fewer than 50 orders but strong repeats means a reach problem: widen the area, not the menu. Plenty of first orders but no repeats means a product problem: fix the wings before you spend a peso on posts. Margin under P40 means the sauce, the oil, or the price is off. The sheet will show which. Missing is a P2,757 lesson, the cheapest one you will ever buy.
