Jorge Mendez turns some Thai flavors into doughnuts
Even the most well-loved brands started small, and two-time Michelin Bib Gourmand spot Some Thai is no different.
Before expanding into The Podium and Opus Mall, Some Thai first opened in Tomas Morato—a small spot that would quickly fill up, with many waiting outside for a table. And at the neighboring Krispy Kreme no less.
Fast forward to the present, Some Thai officially reopened with more seats from an initial 26 to its now 54 capacity. “This bigger space lets us welcome more of them, wherever they’re coming from,” says Jorge Mendez.
To celebrate this milestone, the restaurant teamed up with Krispy Kreme Tomas Morato to launch three Thai-inspired collaboration doughnuts—available for a limited time only.
“Our line led right to their door, so guests would pick up a Krispy Kreme while they waited,” adds Mendez. “We thought it would be fun to do something together, to welcome people back to Some Thai.”
Inspired by Thai favorites, the Some Thai and Krispy Kreme collaboration features Mango Sticky Rice, Coco Pandan, and Thai Milk Tea doughnuts—priced at P80 apiece. These will be available exclusively at the Krispy Kreme Tomas Morato branch from Nov. 11 to 15.
Some Thai is located at 195 Tomas Morato Avenue corner Scout Fuentebella Street, Laging Handa, Quezon City, with branches at The Podium and Opus Mall. Stay updated through the brand’s Facebook and Instagram accounts @somethaiph
