The Year of Living Deliciously: SM Supermalls and the Era of the Non-Negotiable Craving

Wazzup Pilipinas!? 

For 2026, the mandate is clear: raise the standards. We are officially entering an era where compromise is a relic of the past. No more rushed decisions, no more settling for "good enough," and absolutely no more meals that feel like an afterthought.

SM Supermalls is igniting a culinary revolution in the Metro, unveiling a new era of dining defined by fresher concepts, bolder flavors, and better choices. This is your ultimate craving promise: never negotiate when it comes to how you eat.

Non-Negotiable 1: Snacks Are Not Placeholders

Snacking is no longer just a way to "get by"—it is an intentional act of pleasure. This year, quick bites must arrive with personality and zero shortcuts.

Pizza Planet (SM North EDSA): Blast off into a galaxy of cheesy, gooey comfort at the Annex, Upper Ground Level. Whether you’re a kid or just a serious pizza lover, this playful spot delivers an out-of-this-world experience every time.

Shihlin Taiwan Street Snacks (SM City Fairview): Bring the vibrant streets of Taiwan to your plate with crispy, juicy hits like the legendary XXL Chicken and Handmade Oyster Mee Sua.

Non-Negotiable 2: "All-In" Must Mean Everything

All-you-can-eat only works when it is generous and intentional. If you are committing to unlimited, it must satisfy from the very first plate to the last.

King’s Feast Luxury Buffet by Buffet 101 (SM North EDSA): Prepare to feast like royalty at this soon-to-open destination on the 5th Level of The Block. Expect local and international flavors that never skimp on quality.

Mo-Mo Paradise (SM Megamall): The first in the Philippines, located at Mega Fashion Hall, sets the gold standard for unlimited hot pot. Their slow-simmered shabu-shabu and sukiyaki are designed for those who want to linger over a proper, soulful meal.

Non-Negotiable 3: Boldness is Mandatory

Subtlety has been deleted from the menu. 2026 is the year of big profiles and dishes that refuse to hold back.

Siklab+ (S Maison): Discover local flavors with a daring twist at the ground level. With benchmarks like Paboritong Pork Sisig and Kuhol ni Tanggol, your expectations for Filipino cuisine will be forever reset.

Thaiwadee (SM Southmall): Soon to open in the Foodcourt, this is where you go when you refuse to experiment with your Thai cravings. Their Pad Thai and Tom Yum Goong offer the perfect, uncompromising mix of heat and tang.

Royal Indian Curry House Bistro (SM North EDSA): Real spice isn't optional here. Opening soon at The Block, this bistro serves fragrant Hyderabadi Biryani and rich Murgh Makhani that hit exactly the way they should.

Non-Negotiable 4: Healthy is Not Synonymous with Boring

Choosing a lighter path shouldn't feel like you’re missing out.

Salady (SM Megamall): Marking its first appearance in the Philippines at the Level 5 Fashion Hall, Salady proves that eating clean can be just as exciting as any indulgence.

Non-Negotiable 5: The Coffee Break is Sacred

Coffee isn't just a caffeine fix; it’s a moment to slow down and sit longer than planned.

Cafe Kulture (SM Mall of Asia): Located at the South MOA Sky, this spot transforms the routine of coffee and pastries into a genuine "pause" worth taking.
