METRO MANILA, September 2026 — Grandparents’ Day is a chance to celebrate the people who have always made family gatherings feel a little more special. And sometimes, the best way to celebrate lolo and lola is simply by bringing everyone together around a table, sharing good food, stories, and plenty of time with one another.
This Grandparents’ Day, families can make their salu-salo extra memorable at Sicilian Roast, where a selection of Italian-inspired dishes makes it easy to order for the whole table and enjoy a meal together.
For starters, the Carbonara Arancino is a crowd-friendly choice to pass around as everyone settles in. These deep-fried risotto balls are filled with a molten carbonara center, offering a rich and comforting bite that both younger and older family members can enjoy.
For the main spread, the Mateo brings a little more variety to the table. The pizza is topped with assorted Italian meats over marinara and mozzarella, then finished with chili flakes and served with a side of honey for a sweet and savory combination. It is the kind of dish that can easily become part of the table’s shared spread, especially when the family has different cravings.
No family celebration is complete without dessert, and the Tiramisu makes a fitting way to end the meal. It layers mascarpone cream with Biscoff, lady fingers, and chocolate crumble for a sweet finish that everyone can share.
More than the food itself, Grandparents’ Day is about making time for family. From the youngest apo catching up with their grandparents to relatives gathering around the same table, a shared meal creates a simple opportunity to slow down, reconnect, and celebrate the family’s bond.
Sicilian Roast will be open on Grandparents’ Day at its Metro Manila locations: Legazpi Village, Makati; Santolan Town Plaza by Rockwell, San Juan; The Arton Strip by Rockwell, Quezon City; and Molito Lifestyle Center, Alabang. Dinner reservations are recommended at all branches, especially for families planning to celebrate together.
