From Classic to Loaded: This New Online Shawarma Shop Is Changing the Wrap Game

A freshly formed online food and drink delivery service on Facebook and TikTok, House of Pita (previously Crave & Bite) offers a fusion of Arabian-Mexican flavors with a Filipino twist.

The Middle East is the birthplace of shawarma, both chicken and beef. Thinly sliced meat and other fresh vegetable ingredients come together inside a delicious pita bread, and no one can match the authenticity of its original ingredients—spices, lemons, coriander, and a mixture of lovely hummus or tahini paste.

Now the Mexican DNA enters the picture and turns up the heat! The modest mission of this family-run business is to bring a Filipino twist to traditional ingredients by combining flavors from both cultures. One of House of Pita's newest, best-selling, trendiest food items in the city is the pork Shawarma, which the original intention was to make to illustrate that shawarma can be created with anything other than beef or chicken.

A deep respect for Muslim culture exists in the heart of the dish's owner and creator. The so-called Pork Shawarma, which isn't actually a Shawarma but does contain pork, was initially a divisive topic because they anticipated some people would criticize it. Luckily, the Dutch recipe for pork shawarma served as an inspiration for House of Pita. In other parts of the world, like Greece, both dishes use a combination of spices and pork.

Therefore, the owners are grateful to know that cultural diversity is an eye-opener in the world of culinary cuisine, demonstrating that innovation and merging cultures one-two-three is universally welcomed. This is especially true when it comes to the craft of pita bread, where the owners are innovative.

If you're in the mood for some tasty Shawarmas or any of House of Pita's other delicious salads, you've come to the right place!

The Siakol–Repakol–Noel Palomo Feud: A Deep Dive into the Battle for Songs, Rights, and Legacy

The Filipino rock scene, particularly the '90s era of Original Pilipino Music (OPM) bands, has seen its fair share of controversies, but few have been as drawn-out and emotionally charged as the feud between Siakol, its splinter group Repakol, and former lead vocalist and chief songwriter Noel Palomo. Siakol was formed in the mid-1990s and quickly rose to prominence with their raw, relatable lyrics and catchy melodies. The band was known for its street-smart takes on everyday Filipino life, often delivered with humor and grit. Key hits like “Lakas Tama,” “Gabay,” “Tropa,” “Inuman Na,” and “Bakit Ba Ganyan” cemented their status as a staple in the OPM rock canon. The creative nucleus of Siakol revolved around Noel Palomo, the group's charismatic frontman and principal songwriter. While breakups in bands are not uncommon, what followed was a contentious fallout that continues to reverberate in the OPM community. The most significant point of contention? The continued use ...

Why This Café Is the Next Big Franchise Opportunity for the New Generation

The name “I Want Cofi” was inspired by a simple, everyday craving—the moment when you want something comforting and familiar. While coffee is at the heart of the brand, I Want Cofi was created to be more than just a coffee shop. “It’s a journey in every cup.” At first glance, the cafe may appear as a cute dessert spot where you can hang out and relax. Nonetheless, upon closer inspection, IWantCofi Maginhawa operates a single storefront service similar to one of the Philippines' largest fast-food restaurants. You can order at the counter, scan its QR code, use the automated machines, all of which offer several options for your convenience, or use the QR code on our visual with the IWC Maginhawa logo and address on the lower right of the photo.
