THE FIRST IN PAMPANGA—A New Era of Asian Flavors Served with a Twist

 

If there is one thing that unites Asian culture, it is the way our heritage and traditions are perpetuated via food.  Asian foods are absolutely amazing, from the meticulous selection of ingredients to the creativity and invention used in preparation.

SM Supermalls supports this by bringing Taiwanese, Japanese, and Thai quality to one of the heartlands of Filipino cuisine, Pampanga.  Ninepot, The Matcha Tokyo, and Purple Rice have established themselves as must-try restaurants at SM City Clark and SM City Pampanga!

Ninepot—Quality Taiwanese Hot Pot Experience

With the growing popularity of East Asian hot pot restaurants, Ninepot—whose name is derived from the Taiwanese cultural concept that the number nine brings good fortune—stands out by highlighting authentic Taiwanese cuisines at SM City Clark's Tech Hub 2.

Unlike many hot pot restaurants that serve unlimited portions, Ninepot promotes quality by including carefully picked ingredients in each customisable set meal.  Ninepot employs a six-step approach to provide a well-rounded dining experience that shows the complexity of Taiwanese cuisine.

Each order comes with a choice of protein, sides, broth, and vegetables, as well as a dessert and a weekly special drink to round off a delicious meal.

But what actually distinguishes Ninepot is its delectable soup bases, which range from typical Taiwanese savory delicacies to hot and spicy options.  Among these are the distinctive Taiwan Stone Hot Pot, the scented Sesame Oil Hot Pot, the pleasantly sweet Dashi Broth Hot Pot, and the delectable spicy Szechuan Hot Pot.

The Matcha Tokyo—Haven for Premium-Grade Matcha

Matcha-inspired drinks and pastries are becoming increasingly popular.  Despite its growing popularity, matcha has proven to be a tough flavor to manage—especially since matcha enthusiasts are even more difficult to please!

But when it comes to mastering that earthy, rich, and refined flavor, no one does it better than The Matcha Tokyo, which offers authentic, premium-grade options on the ground floor of SM City Clark.

Highlighting 100% organic matcha specials, The Matcha Tokyo is committed to promoting health and sustainability by bringing Japan’s finest matcha for daily and casual consumption.

colored Purple Rice takes center stage, typically coupled with famous Thai meals and placed against an attractive environment that adds to the experience.

Their menu includes a range of foods, including soups like Tom Yum Talay, salads like Purple Yam Woon Sen, and mains like Khao Soi and Pad Thai, with best-selling dishes such as Red Angus Beef Curry and Thai Halo-Halo, among others.

Allow yourself to sample flavors that will satiate your Kapampangan taste buds by visiting Ninepot at Tech Hub 2, The Matcha Tokyo at the Ground Level of SM City Clark, and Purple Rice at the Ground Level of SM City Pampanga.

Whether you consider yourself a connoisseur of specific dishes or a casual food enthusiast, SM Supermalls ensures you get the best from a variety of cuisines—serving flavors tailored to our own tastes and cultures while introducing food innovations that combine familiar practices with new experiences.
