MANILA, Philippines — For a nation like the Philippines enamored with everything Korean, embracing yet another Korean favorite food should be the easiest thing to do. More so if it is something as familiar, relatable and delicious as its iconic gourmet egg sandwich.
First of all, it is an egg sandwich, and Filipinos share a deep love for eggs with Koreans. Second, it is familiar and yet it is something new and different — basically a combination of scrambled eggs and Japanese tamago on slices of brioche bread presented in a standing position in its paper holder.
Now, this Korean gourmet egg sandwich is now in the Philippines. Building on the success of its Mall of Asia debut, Eggdrop, Korea’s original premium gourmet egg sandwich brand, has just opened its second store in the Philippines at Bonifacio Global City, which happens to be one of Metro Manila’s most vibrant urban hubs.
With this new branch, Eggdrop continues to share its beloved menu, crafted with premium ingredients and inspired by Korea’s dynamic food culture, with even more Filipino food lovers.
A trailblazer in Korea’s food and beverage scene, Eggdrop first made waves in 2017 when it introduced the Korea’s very first premium gourmet egg sandwich. Since then, it has grown to over 290 locations across South Korea and become a household name, thanks to its innovative recipes, an exclusive brioche bread, and appearances in K-dramas, K-pop culture, and global food media.
“We’re thrilled to continue Eggdrop’s Philippine journey here in BGC,” said Stewart Lee Ong, president of Butter and Salt Group Inc., which is the franchise partner of Eggdrop in Manila.
Known for its vibrant streets, dining options, dynamic mix of local and expat residents, BGC is home to Eggdrop's newest branch
He added: “This location allows us to connect with a diverse mix of residents, professionals, and cultural tastemakers, all while staying true to what makes Eggdrop special — authentic Korean flavors, premium quality, and a dining experience worth sharing.”
Much like the BGC district itself, Eggdrop blends modern style with cultural depth, offering food that’s not just a passing trend but a lifestyle staple for those who crave comfort, taste, and quality in every bite.
Eggdrop’s popularity is built on its commitment to quality — using A+ grade eggs, fresh ingredients, and its signature brioche bread, which has been developed exclusively for the brand.
The BGC store will feature its most iconic sandwiches straight from South Korea, including Mr. Egg (fluffy scrambled eggs, cheese, and Eggdrop’s signature sauce for a creamy, satisfying finish); Bacon Double Cheese (which has crispy bacon, double the melted cheese, and scrambled eggs layered on signature brioche bread); and Garlic Bacon Cheese (which combines garlic butter, crispy bacon, melted cheese, and scrambled eggs for a bold, savory favorite).
Each sandwich is designed to be both delicious and visually appealing — perfect for enjoying in-store or sharing online.
The opening of the BGC store marks a key milestone in Eggdrop’s Philippine expansion, with plans to bring the authentic Korean gourmet egg sandwich experience to more Filipino communities in the coming years.
“Eggdrop’s success has always been rooted in authenticity and quality,” added Ong. “We’re committed to delivering the same experience that made Eggdrop a household name in Korea, while making it a part of the Filipino everyday lifestyle.”
