Mr.Pizza, Korea's #1 pizza chain, now in the Philippines
Pizza date night is a weekly affair for my family. My Eldest daughter and son just love pizza.
For them, there is simply nothing that quite matches pizza especially if it's homemade and those made with all natural ingredients.
I tried several times to make homemade pizzas, but to no avail. Despite my best intentions, I just simply don't always have time to make pizza. It's time consuming especially if the dough and sauce will be made from scratch, the toppings will be freshly plucked from mommy Ana's garden and the cheese? Where to buy all natural cheeses?
But an exciting and important event took place recently and I practically jumped off of my seat with excitement as soon as I got the invite for an opening of a pizza chain.
But not just an ordinary pizza chain ---- it's Korea’s Number 1 pizza chain.
Mr. Pizza finally opened it's doors to all pizza lovers here in the Philippines!
This all-time popular gourmet pizza’s first branch is located at the ground floor level of Greenbelt 3 Ayala Center, Makati City and will be Mr Pizza’s 505th worldwide.
They will soon open at Robinsons Manila this July and at Sm North Edsa this August.
A little background for all of you, Mr.Pizza was originated back in 1990 that has been number 1 in Korea since 2009. It is the only food brand listed in the KOSDAQ, a first in the food and beverage industry. Other Mr. Pizza locations overseas include of course Korea, China, and United States among others. Among others, Mr. Pizza credits its success to its unflinching commitment to cleanliness, kitchen sanitation, store ambience/atmosphere, ingredients, and customer service.
When it comes to variety, Mr. Pizza can rightfully claim that it's the only brand, which offers very unique flavors.
We tried some of their top-of-the-line pizzas..
The VEGETARIAN is perfect for those who are on diet. It's has veggies and mushrooms. And it has no oil and grill-baked. Once you've tasted it, you will then discover the difference.
Meet Mr.Pizza's all time favorite, The Shrimp Gold, topped with whole shrimps ,seasoned with sweet and sour chili with cajun spice which is peppers, onions, garlic and herbs.
The Secret Garden
It is topped with tender chicken strips and freshest vegetables complemented with white sauce. This is a bit spicy but tolerable and it's one of my favorites.
Have you heard of a pizza with a mocha bun crust?
If you're into sweets, Macho Grande will be the perfect choice for you.
This is a wonderful combination of rare round steak topping and cream cheese stuffed mocha bun crust
The Bulgogi Pizza is loaded with korean-style Bulgogi charcoal-grilled beef and this topped my list for their best pizzas.
Diet-conscious pizza fans especially ladies would love Mr Pizza’s Smarty Pizzas.
These are thin crust pizzas that are not too heavy but still packs in a lot of flavors.
Pizzas under the Classic Pizza category include a variety of traditional pizza flavors with “live” dough, fresh sauce and flavorful cheese.
Other items that would go perfectly well with Pizza are Mr. and Ms. Chicken, and their varieties of Pastas.
Let me introduce to you Ms.Chicken, it has a sweet side to it but not overpowering. I assure you your kids will love this. Mr. Chicken is the spicy version. 8pcs Ms.Chicken is priced at 230 pesos.
All pastas are priced at 280 only so it's quite affordable, really. This is the Oven-Baked bacon cream Spaghetti has a smooth bechamel sauce with bacon and cheese. Yum!
You can order 4 Mozzarella Sticks for only 230 pesos but I'm not quite sure if they cooked it right or just a part of health protocol. The cheese inside, although soft, tastes a bit bland. I did not try the dip which is mustard. I'm not a fan of dips. Hopefully they'll put something to it to make it tastier.
The Original Meat Spaghetti has original tomato sauce with meat toppings and loaded with healthy veggies. This is priced at 280
We tried one of their premium pastas which is the Crab Carbonara that has crab meat , shrimp and bacon covered in rich and creamy carbonara sauce which is priced at 330.
We have also witnessed the Dream Team in action at the launch.
They performed pizza stretching right infront of us and it's not an easy task, I tell you.
The Dream Team have won several awards world wide including Las Vegas for the best pizza tossing. You wouldn't think they're all from Korea because when we hear pizza, we think of Italian people making them, right?
If you love kpop so much, you will love them as well because they are like that but in the pizza industry.
No doubt Mr. Pizza is a must-try – fresh, unique, flavorful, fun and scrumptious!
“We take pride in being able to provide Filipinos the opportunity to experience Korea’s best-tasting pizza. It is definitely something to look forward to,” says Tony Son, Mr. Pizza Korea’s Director for Global Division.
“We are number one in Korea, and we will do our best to be number in the Philippines. We plan to expand aggressively in the coming months so watch out for a lot of store openings,” He added.
