It’s World Pizza Day + Greenwich Overloaded Pizza District + New Greenwich Barkada




Okay guys, I hope there’s no hesitation on this: The World Pizza Day is something worth celebrating. So I hope you’ll allow my inner geek to blurt this small slice of pizza history out.

Before becoming the “pizza” that endeared the world over, this yeasted flat bread with tomato sauce and cheese originated in Naples, Italy in the 1700s. The Neopolitan Raffaele Esposito was accounted as the creator of the iconic pizza to pay tribute to Queen Margherita in 1889.

But it wasn’t until the end of World War II when pizza franchises became more popular. From Europe to North America, the pizza fever catches on so fast that it reached the shores of the Philippines.

Greenwich Barkada World Pizza Day (1 of 5)

Hooray for Greenwich

In the Philippines, the biggest homegrown pizza brand is Greenwich. Then and now this pioneering pizza brand has been serving Filipino pizza lovers with vibrant and positive vibe.

Greenwich joins the global celebration of World Pizza Day, which once again never fail to amaze me. It also never fails to remind me just how much I am a pizza lover myself.

From the free delivery of boxes of the Greenwich Ultimate Overload and Hawaiian Overload flavors, the pioneering local pizza brand made an even bigger splash on February 9, which is its pay of honoring the well-loved pizza with loaded slices from Greenwich Pizza & Pasta.

Overloaded Pizza District

Greenwich kicked off this global holiday for foodies by converting Dolphin Park at Glorietta 4 in Makati City into a vibrant and charming pizza district!

At around 4pm, Filipino pizza lovers were treated with the sumptuous sight, smell, sound and taste of the very best by Greenwich

The Overladed Pizza District features these creative areas:

  • Lasagna Lane where lasagna lovers can walk down and relax while enjoying Greenwich signature Lasagna Supreme and other pasta faves.
  • Hawaiian Combi Corner is your IG-worthy place where a tropical photo wall is mounted to let you and your barkada and family take that perfect group-fie.
  • Strut into Pizza Parlor and witness your favorite Greenwich Hawaiian and Ultimate Overload pizzas made by hand.
  • Stroll down Sidekick Street and feast on tasty sidekicks as Potato Waves, Wacky Wings, and other favorites.

Guests can participate in different contests, such as the Pizza Eating Contest, the Box Overload Challenge, and the Hawaiian Hula Dance Off.

New Greenwich Barkada + Night Concert

Resident Greenwich kabarkada Robi Domingo also introduced his new Greenwich friends – Ella Cruz, Julian Trono, Bella Padilla and new Greenwich endorser JC Santos.

Yassi Pressman was unable to attend the event due to conflict in schedule.

Aside form having all your Greenwich favorites, the Overloaded Pizza District also showcases the Main Plaza at the center, featuring performances from local acts such as Hale, Mayonnaise and Silent Sanctuary.

Fun-Filled World Pizza Day

It’s definitely an affair to remember, overloaded with the best-tasting pizzas, great sounds, and unforgettable barkada moments. The perfect way to celebrate Word Pizza Day.

Until our next discovery in the City!
