3 perfect-for-sharing meals your barkada will love for Friendsgiving

On Thanksgiving duty this year? Hosting friends or gathering with family is no small task, but we’re out here to help. We know that a turkey is traditionally the showstopper on the table, but you don’t have to roast a whole bird and whip up some sides for a flavorful feast come the 27th when you have the most convenient option to dine in at your go-to SM mall.

This season of “Friendsgiving,” we’ve curated Dining Feasts at SM to sink your teeth into on the big day. They’re fun, festive, and still decadent (as all holiday eats should be)—and just a swipe away via the SM Malls Online app.

MESA

For Thanksgiving-Friendsgiving festivities, which falls on a Thursday, order MESA’s Dingdong’s Ultimate Weekday Boodle for only P995*.

Good for a group of three to four, the bundle includes signature Pinoy favorites with that modern MESA twist—Tinapa Roll, Crunchy Pork Sisig, Inahaw na Manok in Honey Patis, Pork BBQ, MESA Braised Beef, Suahe, and Stir-Fried Salted and Spicy Bam-i Garlic Rice.

This homegrown spread should become everyone’s Thanksgiving alternative this year—delicious, worth every penny, and made to make every day feel like a celebration.

Available at any SM branch of MESA nationwide.
*Price may vary per store.

Tokyo Tokyo

Have a go at your Japanese favorites in a special family-sized bento box for only P999 at Tokyo Tokyo. Called “Grupo Bento,” this complete meal stars rice and noodles accompanied by a protein or two like meat or seafood, and sides.

There’s ‘Best Delights,’ with tempura, yakisoba, chicken karaage, and four servings of rice, and ‘All-Time Faves,’ with tempura, yakisoba, pork tonkatsu, and four servings of rice as well.

Blending aesthetic pleasure with practical functionality, these compact bento boxes are perfect for takeaway and can be shared at the comfort of your own home for a Friendsgiving salu-salo that offers variety with value for money.

Available at any SM branch of Tokyo Tokyo nationwide.

Kenny Rogers

Skip the turkey and say hello to Kenny Rogers’ Snow Cheese Roast for P810. Standing out from other cheese or roasted chicken offerings, it’s marinated in cheese, topped with salty-sweet snow cheese powder, and paired with a white, creamy cheese sauce for that next-level indulgence.

There’s also an available Snow Cheese Roast Solo B for P315, which includes a quarter Snow Cheese Roasted Chicken with the same cheesy sauce alongside two side dishes, a muffin, and a serving of rice.

This latest flavor innovation from Kenny Rogers is available until December 31, 2025 at any SM branch of Kenny Rogers near you.
