YOUR FOOD PASSPORT BEGINS AT SM FOODCOURT IN GRAND CENTRAL

There is something thrilling about discovering a new food spot, especially when it transports your taste buds across Asia without ever leaving the city. SM City Grand Central’s Foodcourt just turned into a culinary gateway, where you can now hop from the cozy ramen alleys of Japan to the vibrant street markets of Thailand. With the arrival of KyuKyu Ramen 99 and Thaiwadee, your cravings are about to go on a flavorful adventure. 

SLURP YOUR WAY TO JAPAN WITH KYUKYU RAMEN 99 

There is a certain kind of magic in a hot bowl of ramen. It is comforting, soul-warming and, when done right, deeply satisfying. At KyuKyu Ramen 99, that magic comes at just Php. 99. Yes, you read that right, authentic-tasting ramen for less than a hundred pesos!

Tucked among the bustling stalls of the Foodcourt, KyuKyu Ramen 99 brings the umami straight to Caloocan. Their Tonkotsu Ramen is everything you'd crave: a creamy, milky pork broth, firm noodles, and that nostalgic warmth that feels like a hug in a bowl. Looking for heat? The Spicy Ichiban Ramen brings the fire with a bold, pleasant kick. Feeling curious? The Cheesy Tonkotsu Ramen surprises with gooey, melted cheese blending beautifully with the rich broth. And for those chasing layers of depth, the Premium Umami Ramen is earthy, savory, and deeply satisfying.

But the ramen isn’t the only thing worth lining up for. Their Gyoza is perfectly crisp on the outside, juicy on the inside. Beef Gyudon offers a sweet savory beef bowl that’s hard to resist, while the Chicken Teriyaki gives you tender slices glazed in that signature sauce you’ll probably dream about later.

SAWADEE KA TO THAIWADEE 

Just a few steps away, Thaiwadee calls out with the tang of tamarind and the whisper of lemongrass. Inspired by the electric street food scenes of Thailand, this new stop brings a burst of sanuk (fun) to your usual SM Foodcourt fare.

Start your journey with their Pad Thai—chewy rice noodles stir-fried in tamarind sauce, topped with crushed peanuts and fresh lime. Then dive into a steaming bowl of Tom Yum Goong, a spicy-sour soup that instantly awakens your senses. Every spoonful feels like it came straight from a Bangkok roadside stall.

For dessert, the Mango Sticky Rice offers a fragrant, creamy treat that feels like a gentle hug. And to cool down, don’t miss their Thai Milk Tea or Tamarind Iced Tea—refreshing, flavorful, and perfect after a spicy meal.

SM Foodcourt in Grand Central isn’t just a pit stop anymore—it’s a destination. Whether you’re shopping, meeting friends, or simply craving flavors beyond the usual, your next great meal awaits here. And with Kyu Kyu Ramen 99 and Thaiwadee now in the mix, your taste buds are officially on tour.
