Filipinos from all walks of life love to
gather around sumptuous meals with family and friends. This has been the raison
d'être why a postwar restaurant serving timeless dishes would live on to become
a favorite place for diners, who wish to bond and create special memories over hearty
meals and great conversations.
Established by the Ting Brothers in the
1950s post-World War II era as a single establishment serving chicken and lomi in
Escolta, Manila, Classic Savory is now one of the country’s most loved
restaurant chains with 80 branches nationwide.
Classic
Savory is the perfect place to treat your family and friends to timeless
gustatory treasures.
Wanting to introduce the eatery to young foodies, the second generation
of Tings, co-founder Antonio Ting’s son Ramon, relaunched the restaurant six decades
later, in 2007, and situated more contemporary looking outlets in major malls
(SM, Ayala Malls and Robinsons). The third generation of Tings, Ramon’s nephews
and nieces, would help run the business as well.
Since then, Classic Savory has become a
popular hangout of families and barkadas
who wish to satisfy their cravings for reasonably priced, feast-worthy meals.
Classic Savory Marketing Manager Dennis
Ting said, “Classic Savory has a long and rife tradition of serving Filipino-Chinese
gustatory treasures that have stood the test of time. We shall continue to
provide excellent dishes that would serve as perfect backdrops for cooking up tasty
memories created among family and friends, and all groups of diners for that
matter.”
Not only for dine in or take out, Classic
Savory also brings their delectable dishes to your home parties and office
events via caterings and deliveries. It has in fact become the preferred
takeout food in some offices and catered meals in several home gatherings.
A mix of classic and contemporary dishes
Each of Classic Savory’s time-honored signature
dishes, which include the Savory fried chicken, lomi and pancit canton, has
truly become a must-try among the restaurants’ new and longtime patrons.
Tender,
juicy and tasty, Savory Chicken is the quintessential centerpiece of many
feasts where families and friends create special memories.
Lomi was the main dish that the first-ever
Savory would serve way back in the 50s. Its hearty thick soup and tasty noodles
aptly made it the standard for delicious lomi, then and now. Another noodle
dish that is to die for in the eatery is its delectable pancit canton, which combines
saucy noodles with a generous serving of freshly cooked veggies, seafood and
meat.
The Savory Chicken, meanwhile, has been a
favorite of generations of diners, with its mouth-watering goodness making it
the ultimate comfort food. Just like what its tagline says, it’s tender, juicy
and tasty! Made even more heavenly with its delicious gravy.
No wonder balikbayans make Savory Chicken a coming-home treat as they miss
its unique flavors while abroad. It has also become a perfect centerpiece of several
celebrations like birthdays, christenings, and even weddings.
Aside from these time-honored classics, the
restaurant also came up with new dishes that have been equally well-received by
its patrons.
Relish appetizing courses like Lechon
Macau, Crispy Patatim, Imperial Beef Tenderloin, Beef Ampalaya, Veggie Lumpia
Fried, Chopsuey Con Lechon, Beer Battered Crispy Fish Fillet, Steamed Fish in
Garlic, Shrimps Relleno and Crab Foo Yong, among other dishes. Not to mention
delightful desserts like Almond Fruit Float, Black Iced Jewels, Pandan Fiesta
Salad and refreshing drinks like Tropical Cooler and Blended Iced Tea.
Classic Savory seafood dishes
With
its superb menu selections and welcoming store ambience, diners will surely
find Classic Savory the perfect place to bond and share great dining experiences.
Truly a classic that create long-lasting gustatory traditions and memories!
