Famous Filippino Shakey’s Pizza in Orchard
For those unfamiliar with this pizza chain, Shakey’s Pizza was first established in the United States back in 1954, but gained exceptional popularity in the Philippines. Lucky for us, Shakey’s Pizza has officially opened in Singapore. This first branch is located in Basement One of Lucky Plaza, at the heart of Orchard Road.

Shakey’s Pizza is well known for their thin-crust pizzas, crispy fried chicken, and addictive Mojo potatoes. Their expansive menu also features pasta, lasagna, and even burgers.

To give you an introduction to their pizza options, the crowd-favourite Shakey’s Special (from $20) is topped with ham, beef, sausage, bell peppers and onions. This reminds me of Pizza Hut’s classic Super Supreme pizza, with assorted toppings that make every bite of this pie a party of flavours.
Although their thin crust pizza is highly recommended, you can also opt for a hand-tossed crust that is said to be thicker and chewier.

A premium and unique option would be the Manager’s Choice (from $20), which comes with chunks of beef, ham, and Italian sausage, along with sweet roasted onions and bell peppers.

Besides pizza, Shakey’s Pizza’s trademark item is Chicken n’ Mojos (from $13.50), featuring juicy fried chicken paired with flavorfully battered deep-fried potatoes. Instead of thin, shoestring-cut French fries, Mojo potatoes are deep-fried, circular discs of potato that resemble chicken nuggets.
If you’re not craving pizza, try Skilleti (from $11.80), a classic marinara-style pasta served in a cast-iron skillet.
