HISTORY OF SAVORY

The years following the end of World War II proved significant not just for the Philippines but for the Ting brothers as they moved to start a fresh life and establish their livelihood. By 1950, the brothers had put up a “panciteria” in the busy district of Quiapo serving mainly lomi. Over time as their little panciteria grew in popularity and as the brothers began to discover other dishes they could serve their customers, they were able to create a special recipe for fried chicken and gravy that became so popular that soon not just members of the local Chinese community came to partake of the special tasty, juicy and tender chicken treat but also a number of Filipinos who would come to the restaurant with their families to “savor” this “savory” fried chicken dish.

And thus the popular Savory Chicken House was born and its first branch opened in Escolta. The menu soon expanded to include other Filipino and Chinese dishes. Now, after over 50 years of existence, the third generation of the Ting Family who launched Savory are re-launching the brand via the Classic Savory Chicken Mall outlets so that more of the younger generations can continue to savor this unique fried chicken and its other specialties. The Classic Savory Chicken now has branches at SM Mall of Asia, SM Supercenter Pasig, SM North, SM San Lazaro and Robinsons Ermita. The Classic Savory Chicken is scheduled to open more branches this year to serve its growing clientele.
