What if pizza was invented in the Philippines? Amado Forés of a mano and Toyo Eatery’s chef Jordy Navarra explore this interesting premise in a collaboration that resulted in Pizza Kamayan, an exciting and very fun limited-time menu released in celebration of a mano’s fifth anniversary.

a mano, which means 'by hand' in Italian, is known for its daily preparation of fresh pasta and pizza. The restaurant offers traditional and creative takes on classic Italian dishes tailored to the local taste. 50 Top Pizza has recognized a mano as the 12th best pizzeria in the Asia-Pacific region and was awarded the Best Pasta Proposal in 2024. With three branches already open, a fourth is set to open in late 2024. This success highlights the team's dedication to authentic Italian cuisine.


a mano’s collaboration with Toyo Eatery is the second of an ongoing series of celebratory events leading up to a mano’s fifth anniversary this September. Pizza Kamayan showcases the blend of Toyo Eatery's innovative Filipino cuisine and a mano's traditional Italian flavors and techniques. The mouthwatering pizzas created from this collaboration will feature the best of both culinary worlds. Throughout this month-long event, all profits will be donated to Good Food Community.

“We admire Jordy Navarra and Toyo Eatery so much,” shares Amado Forés. “Toyo Eatery has always championed Filipino ingredients and those who produce them. We agreed that we wanted to give back to those who farm the ingredients we use every day.”


“Because we are a mano diners to begin with, when we were asked if a collaboration pizza was something we were interested in, it was a no-brainer for us to say yes,” says Jordy Navarra, chef of Toyo Eatery. “We never thought we'd get to express Toyo Eatery flavors in a pizza, so we're really happy we have the chance to do this with a brand we admire. When our team met with the a mano team for the first time, it was pretty fun trying out different flavor combinations together. So much so that we ended up with not just one pizza, but three. ”

Available from July 26 to August 26, these pizza specials will be served daily at all a mano branches in Rockwell Center in Makati, Bonifacio Global City in Taguig, and Gateway Mall in Cubao.
