Eat Pizza Expands in the Philippines: Second Branch Now Open at SM Mall of Asia

 Good news, K-culture and pizza lovers! After the success of its first location in SM North Edsa, Eat Pizza, the popular South Korean pizza chain, has now opened its second branch in the Philippines at SM Mall of Asia.

This expansion marks the brand’s commitment to bringing its unique, Korean-inspired pizzas to even more Filipinos. And with more stores planned for this year, Eat Pizza is set to become a favorite destination for pizza lovers all over the country!

Eat Pizza: A Growing Phenomenon
Eat Pizza first opened its doors in South Korea in 2021, quickly gaining popularity with its innovative concept and delicious flavors. Since then, the brand has expanded rapidly across the country in more than a hundred locations, and has also spread its delicious creations to Southeast Asia, with existing stores in Singapore, Malaysia, and Indonesia.

Now, Eat Pizza is bringing its one-of-a-kind pizza experience to the Philippines with its second store located at the 3rd Floor of SM Mall of Asia’s North Entertainment Mall, offering a taste of Korea on a perfectly-sized 10-inch pizza.

 

Perfectly Sized for You

One of the unique aspects of Eat Pizza is its 10-inch rectangular pizza called a slide, which is just the right size for an individual meal. This innovative approach eliminates the need to compromise on ordering their preferred flavor, making it ideal for solo dining or for group bonding with individual flavor choices.

With Eat Pizza’s slide, each person can order the flavor they want to try, whether they’re craving classic or Korean-inspired flavors. Plus, the convenient packaging makes it easy to enjoy their meal without any mess.

Eat Pizza also offers delectable flavor through its high-protein dough, infused with extra virgin olive oil, topped with 100% natural mozzarella cheese, and the freshest ingredients. Each serving is baked to perfection, with irresistibly crunchy edges and a soft, doughy center that promises an unforgettable bite.

What's on the Menu at Eat Pizza?

The new Eat Pizza branch at SM Mall of Asia will offer 10 exciting pizza flavors, from classic options like Aloha, Pepperoni, and Classic Cheese, to Korean-inspired varieties that are sure to excite adventurous taste buds. Meat lovers can indulge in Bulgogi, Hot & Spicy Bulgogi, Samgyeopsal, or Korean sausage, while those with a sweet tooth can enjoy flavors like Sweet Milk, Sweet Corn, and Sweet Potato.

For a complete Korean experience, Eat Pizza also offers five baked sides, including the popular Tteokbokki with Cheese, Sweet and Spicy Corn Cheese, and Sweet Potato Corn Cheese. Traditional favorites like Spaghetti and Carbonara are also available for those who crave comfort food with a twist.

Looking Ahead: The Pizza Revolution Continues in 2025

There’s more Eat Pizza on the horizon as the brand is eyeing even more expansion this year, bringing its distinctive blend of Korean cuisine and pizza to more locations across the Philippines. With its innovative concept and delicious offerings, Eat Pizza is poised to become a favorite among Filipino foodies who are eager to experience a fresh twist on pizza.

"We’re thrilled to bring Eat Pizza to more Filipinos and introduce them to our unique pizza experience," said Scott Tan, Managing Director of Scottland Food Group Corporation, the team that brought Eat Pizza to the Philippines. "This year, we’re focused on expanding our presence to reach even more people across the country, so that more Filipinos can enjoy our flavorful fusion of Korean and pizza culture."

Eat Pizza’s second branch is now open at SM Mall of Asia, ready to delight your taste buds with its exciting flavors and innovative pizza concept. Follow Eat Pizza’s Facebook and Instagram page at @eatpizzaph for more exciting offers and announcements.

Simple Steps for a Safer Home with Beko

As the sizzling summer heat approaches, it's also important to prioritize fire safety. March, as Fire Prevention Month, is our reminder that safety at home should always be a priority. 

A well-prepared home can bring relaxation and peace of mind. Luckily, there are simple steps you can take to proactively protect your home and loved ones.

 

Beko, from Europe's No. 1 Large Home Appliance Company*, is here to help you ensure a fire-safe home in all corners.

Keep the kitchen safe

Did you know that leaving food unattended while cooking is the leading cause of kitchen fires? To ensure safety, always stay attentive while cooking. Keep kitchen towels, cloths, and curtains away from the cooktop as the surface and sides can get hot. In case of emergencies, remain calm and turn off the gas supply if possible.

 

For gas range, look for products with Gas Safety features like the Beko Freestanding Gas Cookers.  It is equipped with a gas safety device that prevents gas leaks by detecting when the burner flame is accidentally extinguished, it subsequently cuts off the gas supply to avoid any incident of fire. This safety feature along with a multifunctional oven makes Beko Freestanding Cookers the smart and safe choice for your home.

 

Laundry Safety List

Your washer and dryer also need regular attention, as doing laundry is a common household task.

 

Avoid overloading your machine and separate loads according to the machine's capacity. Once in a while, inspect your machines for any damage, such as cracks or frayed wires, and always clean the lint trap after each load to prevent fire hazards.

 

For large loads, consider using a high-capacity washer like theBeko Automatic Top-Loading Washing Machine, which has a 16 kg capacity and a Direct Drive Motor for energy efficiency and durability, ensuring reliable and quiet performance.

 

Home Safe Home

To ensure fire safety at home, start with simple actions like regularly inspecting outlets and cords for wear and tear and replacing them immediately if damaged.

 

Before plugging your appliances, make sure to check and label the outlet with its voltage capacity for easy reference. For added peace of mind, invest in accessible fire extinguishers, especially near the kitchen, and install smoke detectors inside and outside bedrooms for early fire warnings.

 

For a home that’s safe and secure, choose quality, performance, and durability. Discover Beko, from Europe’s No. 1 Large Home Appliance Company. Shop at your nearest appliance store or visit Beko Philippines' official stores online on Lazada, Shopee, and TikTok Shop.
