Looking for a unique dining experience that won’t break the bank? Food trucks are taking over SM City Baguio, offering a variety of flavors for food lovers.
As temperatures rise, many Filipinos head to Baguio City to escape the heat. Aside from sightseeing, food tripping has become a favorite activity.
At SM City Baguio, food trucks are bringing a literal “food trip” experience, serving diverse cuisine straight from mobile kitchens.
Nash Asp, a crew member from one of the food trucks, shared why people are drawn to this setup.
“Food trucks like these are rare in the Philippines, so people enjoy visiting them and even taking pictures,” he said.
Food enthusiast Aira Burayag visited the food trucks with her children and loved the accessibility of the concept.
“Since they can move around depending on events, they’re more convenient for customers,” she said. “The design is also eye-catching, and it makes you curious about what food is available inside.”
Customer Himig Laciste also appreciated the mobility of food trucks.
“They can relocate easily, so no matter where they go, they can set up quickly,” he said.
From international cuisine to local street food, these food trucks offer a diverse menu. Their Instagram-worthy designs also add to their appeal.
A total of six food trucks are currently stationed at SM City Baguio and will be there until March 17.
