South Korea's EGGDROP Is Coming to the Philippines
Yup, makers of the original over-the-top egg sandwich that trended during the pandemic.
(SPOT.ph) Popularized by the adorable and too-smart-for-his-age Kim Jun or Uju from the K-Drama Hospital Playlist, Korean egg drop sandwiches bring together fluffy-as-clouds scrambled eggs, crispy bacon strips or ham, ooey-gooey cheese, a drizzle of sriracha and sweet sauce, sandwiched in between golden-brown buttery thick slices of bread.
If this sandwich sounds oddly too familiar to you, it's probably because you've already tried it. The egg drop trend started in the Philippines in the midst of the pandemic, around 2021, with several stores selling their own versions. But now, EGGDROP—the OG egg drop sandwich branch all the way from South Korea, and the same chain that served Uju's favorite food in Hospital Playlist—is coming to the Philippines.

The OG egg drop sandwich from South Korea is opening in the Philippines soon
In an Instagram post by EGGDROP, they teased that they're dropping their first branch in the Philippines "soon." But as to how soon is "soon", there's, unfortunately, no confirmed opening date or location as of writing. If you're excited as we are, you can keep refreshing their Instagram post as this will be updated once the schedule is finalized.
What to Order at EGGDROP When They Open in the Philippines
Assuming EGGDROP will bring its entire menu items to the Philippines, we might get all 10 sandwich options to choose from. There's Mr. Egg for those who like it plain; the Ham & Cheese K-Street Toast, American Ham Cheese, and Ham and Cheese French Toast for those who prefer their sandwiches with ham; Avo Bacon K-Street Toast, Bacon Double Cheese, Garlic Bacon Cheese, and Bacon Deep Cheese Bun for bacon lovers; the Terikayi BBQ for those who can't get enough of the sweet-savory sauce teriyaki sauce in pork; and then there's the Avo Holic that's made with soft scrambled eggs, avocado slices, and a handmade avocado sauce.
Fingers crossed we also get their coffee menu to pair with the sandwiches. Are we wishing for too much if we want all the 14 caffeinated drinks, the three "-ades" which are fruit-flavored beverages, and the two chocolate drinks? We hope we aren't, but perhaps this is just our excitement talking.
