When people say Lugang Cafe, three things immediately come to my mind: Three Cup Chicken, Xiao Long Bao, and Mapo Tofu. Yummy!! However, even though I’d love to treat myself daily, it can be a bit expensive to buy our favorites every single day. That changes this 2022, though! Lugang Cafe is now offering some of their authentic Asian specialties at an affordable price.

Lugang Cafe recently teamed up with convenience retailer 7-Eleven to bring their new Chef Creations collaboration closer to our homes and workplaces, making meals more accessible for work-from-home individuals and busy bees of the Metro. There are currently two chicken meals available — the Three Cup Chicken at only Php 99 (usual servings cost Php 428) and the Sweet & Sour Chicken at only Php 105 in select stores in Luzon beginning February 9.

Three Cup Chicken: Tender chicken goodness cooked in a sweet and savory glaze of sesame oil, soy sauce, and rice wine.

Sweet & Sour Chicken: Crunchy fried chicken strips coated with Lugang Cafe’s signature sweet and sour sauce.

I hope they’d add more affordable meals to the menu, though! For now, I’ll indulge in my favorite budget-friendly Three Cup Chicken. See? Eating good yummy food does not have to be super expensive!

See you in 7-Eleven stores! As usual, don’t forget to wear your face mask, observe physical distancing, use alcohol from time to time, and follow safety protocols when inside the store. You can also opt for contactless payments via CLiQQ e-wallet and GCash for extra safety.
