Gerry's "refreshes" Megamall branch, brings Old Manila to new Aseana Branch

Ambiance, soft lighting and a relaxed atmosphere plus great filipino food makes me want to visit Gerry's over and over again. If I want to spend some time and enjoy my food, Gerry's SM Mega Strip B is now in my priority list of restaurant to visit.

Gerry's Grill Mega Strip B has that relaxed vibe feel to it, plus it offers function room for private party and or meetings. My favorite dish at Gerry's is their Beef Kare-kare and Grilled Pusit, the creamy and thick sauce with slight peanutty sweetness compliments the Grilled pusit. They are simply the best partner to go with their ripe mango shake.

Gerry's invited bloggers to take a peek at the newly revamped Gerry's Mega Strip B last May 28. The homey cozy feel makes you want to stay longer.

“We have set a new standard to ensure that we provide customers not only the best Filipino dishes but fast, efficient service and a cozy ambiance. We want diners to have that experience of being in a restaurant where they will feel relaxed, and comfortable,” said Francis Villaluz, Gerry’s Senior Marketing Manager.

"It’s important that guests feast not only with what they eat but with what they see inside the restaurant," he added. That’s the principle behind the two restaurants' new looks.

At Gerry’s Megamall, the main wall of the dining area is decked with foliage, which is installed with a fully automated water system to nourish them.  “The lighting is calibrated in a way that it has the same effect as sunlight. Nothing could be more refreshing,” explains Villaluz.

They served the best filipino appetizer food like sizzling kangkong with roaster garlic on top, green mango salad with pork, fried tilapia with savory eggplant, tuna sisig (my new favorite), and grilled stuffed bangus. and sinigang na hipon!

Meantime, the 250-seater Aseana branch sports an updated version of Old Manila surrounded by balconies, as well as, huge windows of varying designs. Chairs are a mix and match design which is a first for us  “We want guests to feel that they are enjoying their favorite Gerry’s dishes with family and friends in a huge patio,” Gerry’s senior marketing chief said.

“Remember the old joke about a guest wanting to take out “ambiance” so that they can slash the total bill? We're the same Gerry’s where you can enjoy your favorite comfort food – Kare Kare, Crispy Pata, Grilled Pusit, and many others. We’ve put a premium on ambiance but our prices remain the same. We are very affordable,” explains Villaluz.

Gerry’s currently has 71 branches nationwide. It has two branches in the US and Singapore, and soon to be two in Qatar as well.

Gerry’s Group of Companies has expanded its brand concepts – Gerry’s Plus, Ramen Sora, Sweet Chili, and Kusina ng Gerry’s. Yakitori Binchotan is set to be launched next month in Cebu.

TURN THE TABLES AROUND AT GERRY'S ON MOTHER'S DAY

On May 9 it's Mother’s Day!

And what better way to celebrate the occasion than to be with Mom and the rest of the family at Gerry’s.

Why so?

We know a mother is the “Queen of Kitchen”. She was born to rule it. Day and night a mother spends long hours in her ‘mini-kingdom’ cooking up nothing but the best meals for her family.



Moms would stop at nothing to make sure her beloved - hubby and children - enjoy their time together at the dining table. No other gathering can be more heartfelt than being together, feasting over mom’s signature dishes – which are incomparable.

Now that’s the huge challenge there.  How do you make someone, who in her life has done nothing but whip up the best dishes for her family, happy?

Here’s an idea. On Mother’s Day why don’t we turn the tables around and do a role reversal? Let’s cook up something for our Moms and treat her like royalty.

Now that may sound a tall order, but Gerry’s promises to help you play the role.  There is no way that you can beat Mom’s “lutong bahay” but you can always do the best you could – by choosing to be at the leading Filipino restaurant.

“Gerry’s has a vast selection of dishes that Mothers would definitely love. Aside from classics Crispy Pata, Kare-Kare and Sinigang na Hipon, there's Scallops, Baby Squid, Crispy Pla-Pla and Bangus a la Pobre. Gerry’s is a family place so we know what everyone – dads, moms and their children – would enjoy. Our sumptuous meals are perfect for Mother’s Day even for simple gatherings like weekend lunches,” said Francis Villaluz, Gerry’s Group Marketing Manager.

If you go inside the kitchen of Gerry’s, you would be glad to know that a lot of the much-loved restaurant’s chefs are women, according to Villaluz. “Our menus are prepared with so much heart. That’s why our dishes still top a lot of ‘best-of’ lists.”

Whatever the occasion may be especially those, which are as most celebrated and anticipated as Mother’s Day, Gerry’s continue to be a destination of choice.

No need to try hard topping Mom’s dishes – because they will remain unbeaten.

But you can bring her to Gerry’s because she knows that’s what her family loves. And loving her family is on top of anyone’s Moms’ list!

Don’t forget the flowers.
