Craving for Japanese flavors as well as western burgers? Then Japan’s MOS Burger could be the restaurant you’re looking for. This February, the fast food chain is slated to open several stores in the Philippines, the first of which will be at the second level of Robinsons Galleria, Ortigas.
If it’s growing worldwide presence is any indication, MOS Burger seems to have captured a wide and discriminating global taste. For one, its hamburger and other food items are made from the finest quality ingredients to achieve that unique “Japanese taste.” Among the must-try selections on its menu are its signature MOS cheese burger and Yakiniku rice burger.
“Our first branch here at Robinsons Galleria will be followed by the opening of other branches in Metro Manila’s major malls and commercial districts. We have other branches opening soon in other Robinsons Malls. We are happy to be a part of the dining scene here in the Philippines,” said Masahide Araki, president of MOS Burger Philippines, during the brand’s launch.
MOS Burger Philippines was formed in 2019 to oversee the local operations of MOS Burger and the soon-to-be-launched MOS Café. The company is a joint venture agreement between MOS Food Services Inc. of Japan and Tokyo Coffee Holdings of local entrepreneur Hubert Young.
MOS Burger’s aggressive expansion plan in the Philippines will see the opening of several restaurants in Metro Manila this year alone. Apart from the one in Robinsons Galleria, MOS Burger stores are scheduled to open to at SM Megamall, Robinsons Magnolia, O Square Greenhills and Robinsons Place Manila.
“We have heard that Filipinos are big burger lovers, and we are offering only the best for you,” said Araki, who attended the branch launch, “Mr. Young has told us that he had long wanted to bring MOS Burger to Manila since he first tasted our burgers back in Japan in the 1990s,” he added.
