Within the compounds of HMR lies Pioneer St. Market, an indoor food bazaar with a total of 24 stalls offering various dishes from different cuisines (Filipino, Indonesian, Western, etc), as well as general merchandise including wine, nuts, coffee, vegetables, and plants.
Unlike other food parks, this one has air-conditioning and lots of parking spaces available. That's already a huge plus for me since most if not all food parks have neither.
Since I arrived early, I took the opportunity to walk around the market and check out the stalls!
I made sure to snap a few shots so you have an idea of how it all looks like.
I especially love the seating areas! They're just so cozy! :)
The event was entitled A Night at Pioneer St. Market and as you can see, everyone really prepared for it.
The styling and decorations they used just brought everything together!
Karl from Zomato was our host that evening and from experience, there is NEVER a dull moment when Karl is around.
Blended offered us one of their specialties - the Shawarma Pizza.
Unlike other shawarma places, Blended doesn't have a shawarma spit. They believe in searing it on a grill rather than having an entire chunk of meat rotating on a spit the entire day (for them, it's the cleaner, more hygienic option). They served this with their homemade hot sauce and garlic sauce. I mixed in a lot of both into my pizza slice and it tasted oh so good! I wanted to eat more, but we still had a whole lot of dishes to consume, so in the end, I decided not to. How delicious does this look though??
Pioneer Street Market is located at
Reliance St. corner Pioneer St. Behind HMR in front of TV5 (inside of parking lot HMR)
Operating hours: Tuesday to Sunday 10am-9pm
