Heads up! Christmas is just around the corner.
If you’re planning to celebrate the holidays by watching a movie with your family, we’ve got the best Christmas movie night snacks for you to enjoy.
The Filipino Christmas game is strong, it basically starts once the “ber” months arrive. What’s not to love about the most wonderful time of the year, right? This annual festivity brings both families and friends together. With that in mind, check out this Philippine food and restaurant guide for some of the best snacks on your next Christmas movie night.
Spaghetti from Jollibee
You might find it odd that we recommend spaghetti for your Christmas movie night, but Buddy from the movie Elf says otherwise! In one scene he can be seen chowing down on spaghetti topped with all kinds of sweets. While chocolate syrup, sprinkles, marshmallow, and M&M’s might not be your favorite toppings of choice, spaghetti is the perfect comfort food to enjoy while watching the movie.
What better way to enjoy a plate of spaghetti than to get from Jollibee? It isn’t hard to understand why the Jolly Spaghetti is loved by many. It is made with soft noodles topped with a sweet-style sauce, loaded with hot dogs, ground meat, and cheese. Plus, if you’re still hungry, you could also order the iconic Jollibee Chickenjoy!
Chocolate cookies from The French Baker
Chocolate cookies are one of the classic Christmas treats everyone must have. If Santa from the 1994 film The Santa Clause loved it, you definitely would love it as well!
Of course, when it comes to the best chocolate cookies, they should be warm with a deliciously gooey center. Have a taste of the sweet chocolate cookies from The French Baker! Made with rich Belgian chocolate chips, every bite will melt in your mouth. The best part about it? The French Baker only offers freshly baked goods every day. Now all you need is a glass of milk to complete the movie night experience.
Hot chocolate from Mary Grace Cafe
Nothing beats being cuddled up on a comfy couch while drinking the traditional Christmas drink—hot chocolate. While you may not have anyone singing and dancing while serving your cup just like the iconic scene from The Polar Express, you can still score the best hot chocolate in town.
You might be surprised to know that Mary Grace Cafe not only sells the ensaymadas and cheese rolls you love, but they have a varied selection of hot chocolate as well. The Mary Grace Cafe Signature Hot Chocolate has that premium taste to it. Made with creamy and thick chocolate, it’s extra-rich. Trust us, it will leave you wanting more.
Cheese pizza from S&R
The Christmas season is all about giving. So for your Christmas movie night, what’s stopping you from buying a whole box of pizza to share with your loved ones?
Head to the nearest S&R because you can’t go wrong with their classic Cheese Pizza. While you’re at it, watch Home Alone. Witness how Kevin, the nine-year-old-boy protagonist, puts up a fight when thieves break into his home during Christmas. Plus, Kevin loves eating a whole cheese pizza, too!
Holiday coffee cake from Starbucks
Starbucks is the most popular coffeehouse that serves all kinds of drinks. They also offer a wide selection of baked goods. Among those, we highly suggest trying their Holiday Coffee Cake.
Love, Actually is a 2003 romantic comedy film set during the Christmas season. It shows how eight London couples deal with their relationships in different ways. If you’re spending the most awaited holiday of the year with your significant other, watching Love, Actually while eating the delicious Starbucks Holiday Coffee Cake is the best way to make your movie night sweeter.
Apple pie from Meat Plus Cafe
From the movie Mickey’s Christmas Carol: Ghost of Christmas Present, the giant character was seen sitting on a pile of food. Among the food choices, the apple pie certainly looked delicious.
You too can try a delicious apple pie from Meat Plus Cafe! Guaranteed to be baked with love, it has warm apple slices and a perfect crust. You can’t beat this snack while watching a Christmas movie.
