Regional Filipino cuisines to try this Thanksgiving weekend
Celebrate Filipino heritage with dishes from all over the Philippines at SM Supermalls
Thanksgiving at SM Supermalls becomes even more meaningful when we gather around dishes that tell the story of our regions. This year, take your loved ones on a culinary journey across Luzon, Visayas, and Mindanao with iconic Filipino dishes you can enjoy from restaurants and
food tenants across SM malls nationwide. From savory Kapampangan sisig to Visayan lechon, these dishes bring tradition, flavor, and community into every bite.
Dig into Kapampangan classics
No regional spread is complete without Sisig—smoky, tangy, and crispy to perfection. Manam’s famous version remains one of the most sought-after dishes in SM malls.
Cabalen also offers more Kapampangan heritage flavors like Gatang Kohol, Adobong Manok, and the beloved Tibok-Tibok (carabao-milk pudding). And from Abé’s menu, notable dishes
such as the comforting Sinigang sa Ube are inspired by Kapampangan traditions.
Turn up the heat with Bicol’s best
For Bicolano flair, indulge in Geewan’s Pinangat, Laing, and Kinunot—dishes rich with coconut milk, chili, and taro leaves, bringing heat, depth, and heritage flavor to your
Thanksgiving table.
And to cap off the feast, 1st Colonial Grill’s iconic Sili Ice Cream is a must-try!
Warm up with Visayan comforts
At Mesa, you can enjoy Chicken Binakol, a Western Visayan favorite simmered in coconut water and lemongrass, offering both warmth and island comfort.
Another way to elevate your Thanksgiving table is with Cebu Lechon Belly, known for its perfectly crispy skin and tender, flavorful meat. Lechoneria serves this Cebuano staple that is seasoned the traditional way, a true centerpiece for any holiday feast.
Cebu-style Pochero, a light and fragrant beef stew with corn, bok choy, and tender meat, is perfect for the season. Locals and visitors alike love Paolito’s mouthwatering take on this Visayan favorite.
Add Mangan’s bestselling Crispy Pata to your spread for maximum crunch and holiday indulgence.
Savor Mindanaoan comforts
Start your food trip with the famous Mindanaoan appetizer Sinuglaw at Bigby’s—a refreshing starter made with grilled pork belly, tuna ceviche, chili peppers, and onion. What makes Bigby’s version truly stand out is the use of tabon-tabon, a distinct regional ingredient that adds flavor and authenticity to the dish.
Then explore more flavors from Mindanao with Buntaa Crabs from Verity Restaurant, a beloved Butuan delicacy where crabs are stuffed with shredded young coconut, rich aligue, and spices before being slow-cooked in coconut milk for a creamy, deeply savory finish.
