Wazzup Pilipinas!? 




Gone are the days when you had to choose between enjoying a great meal and spending quality time with your beloved pet. SM City Manila has created a haven for pet lovers, where delicious food and furry companionship go hand-in-hand. This isn't just a meal; it's a "furbaby" food outing, and a new era of unique finds awaits you and your four-legged friend.




Max's Restaurant: A Taste of Timeless Filipino Comfort

Step into a classic culinary journey at Max's Restaurant, a name synonymous with Filipino comfort food. Here, you can indulge in their famous dishes with your pet right by your side. Start your meal with the refreshing and crunchy Lumpiang Ubod, a delightful mix of shredded heart of palm, vegetables, pork, shrimp, and crabmeat wrapped in a delicate crepe. Don't miss the crowd-pleasing All-Beef Kare Kare, a rich and savory bowl of slow-cooked beef cuts and tripe in a thick peanut sauce, served with Max’s signature sautéed shrimp paste. It's the perfect spot for a hearty, pet-friendly family meal.




Scorched Smokehouse: A Smoky American-Style Feast

For those who crave smoky goodness and a laid-back atmosphere, Scorched Smokehouse is a top choice. This restaurant specializes in American-style smoked meats, including flavorful pork ribs, USDA beef, and pulled pork. Their secret lies in slow-smoking the meats for up to 12 hours using imported hickory wood chips, resulting in exceptionally tender and flavorful dishes. The overload meals offer a complete experience with creamy pasta, smoked meat, java rice, and a dessert bar. To beat the heat, sip on the fan-favorite Scorched Iced Mocha while you and your furbaby relax.



MESA: Modern Filipino Dining at Its Finest


MESA takes traditional Filipino cuisine and gives it a modern, stylish twist. The star of the show is their Pinatayong Manok, a whole chicken marinated and deep-fried to a perfect golden brown. This succulent, crispy-skinned dish is presented upright at your table, making for a dramatic and eye-catching centerpiece. Pair it with the smoky and flavorful Tinapa Rice for an unforgettable meal. MESA’s cozy ambiance welcomes pet parents to dine in comfort and style with their furry companions.



Classic Savory: Nostalgic Filipino-Chinese Favorites

Take a trip down memory lane at Classic Savory, a cherished spot that blends tradition and comfort. Famous for its signature fried chicken, this restaurant offers a delicious selection of Filipino-Chinese dishes. You can't go wrong with their Classic Savory Chicken, crispy Shanghai Rolls, or a hearty serving of Fried Rice. For a refreshing finish, try the sweet Iced Coffee Jelly or the Savory Tropical Cooler. As a pet-friendly space, Classic Savory makes it easy to enjoy their delicious offerings without leaving your pet behind.



Khao Khai Thai Chicken House: Street Food Flavors from Bangkok

Transport your taste buds to Bangkok with the bold and authentic flavors of Khao Khai Thai Chicken House. A true cult favorite, their signature Gai Tod (Thai Fried Chicken) is celebrated for its crispy exterior and juicy meat. For a truly authentic street food experience, enjoy the Gai Tod with the tangy Som Tam (papaya salad) and a sweet, creamy Thai Milk Tea. This vibrant spot is a must-visit for a flavorful adventure that you can share with your furry companion.



Bebang Halo Halo: The Ultimate Sweet Escape

No culinary adventure is complete without a sweet treat, and Bebang Halo Halo provides the perfect finale for your foodie bonding session. This dessert shop is known for its unique flavors and generous servings of the classic Filipino dessert. Their crowd favorite is the Presidential Halo Halo, a delightful mix of premium ingredients like leche flan, sago, ube halaya, and sweet corn. What sets it apart is its creamy frozen milk base, a richer alternative to traditional shaved ice. It’s a sweet escape that you can enjoy with your pet on a hot day.



With a growing number of pet-friendly food destinations, SM City Manila is transforming the mall experience into a culinary treat and a bonding moment for you and your furbaby. Go on a food outing and create lasting memories, all while discovering new and unique finds.
