Fresh, crisp and savory rolls fresh from the kitchen are ready to wrap up your appetite with vibrant flavors from the newest snack in town. Time to take your appetite on a flavorful ride and let the good times roll with Liang Crispy Roll...

Liang Crispy Roll brings its specialty savory rolls to the metro offering even more tasty options to shoppers at SM Aura. With over 12,000 branches around the world, Manila becomes the latest addition to a rapidly growing global network with its very first branch located at Level 4 of SM Aura. Read on for a tasty peek at the newest entry in the local food scene.

As quarantine restrictions are gradually eased, the metro's culinary landscape slowly opens up with a cautious yet optimistic vibe, including the entry of foreign brands adding their own unique offerings to a diverse and colorful palette of flavors. For shoppers and diners, it's a welcome break from the long days of the new normal. An established brand from China, Liang Crispy Rolls takes the traditional scallion pancakes and rolls with the times with a variety of savory fillings from tender Angus Beef, Grilled Chicken, Pork  BBQ and Tuna to Cheese and Vegetarian variants to satisfy any craving.

Almost like roti or even a gyro, the scallion pancakes adds its own distinctive flavor and texture for a new casual dining experience at Liang crispy Roll. Soft and chewy with a delicate crispness and rich buttery notes, the tasty scallion pancakes becomes the flavorful base and vessel for a variety of fillings for a satisfying snack on the go. Order up two or three and it becomes a meal in itself. 

At the soft opening of Liang Crispy Rolls at SM Aura, the open kitchen gives diners a glimpse of the countless steps for each freshly made order through a panoramic glass window...

...and after a few minutes, your orders are ready to serve. Each roll can be quite filling and with six tempting options to choose from, you'll find a roll with your name on it. The quality and freshness of the ingredients bring all the flavors, but it's the unique rolled scallion pancake that makes this a tasty new flavor experience.   

That day, I sampled the Angus Beef Steak (P 145) with fork-tender Angus beef, garden-fresh lettuce and onions filling up a folded scallion pancake. The savory richness of the Angus beef punches through with each bite draping the palate with its indulgent flavors followed by the fresh and clean notes of crisp lettuce and the sharp bite of the red onions for both flavor and textural contrasts. Everything just comes together seamlessly with each big bite. The scallion pancake completes the experience with its crisp, soft and chewy finish rounded out by buttery hints. Ask for some extra Garlic Sauce for even more flavors. Or if you prefer a little soothing heat, go for the extra Red Sauce.

The kitchen at Liang Crispy Roll is all fired up, serving more of their specialty rolls to guests...  

...with the Angus Beef Steak clearly a popular choice. The crisp and chewy scallion pancake is in itself a tasty attraction. Lay on the Angus beef, fresh lettuce and onions and it becomes a hand-held feast. 

But the Angus Beef Steak is just one of six tasty and savory variants at Liang Crispy Roll. Craving for pork, chicken, cheese, seafood or veggies? Liang Crispy Roll has that covered.

Liang Crispy Roll offers an equally tasty Pork BBQ (P 145) variant with the delicate notes of tender pork enhanced by smoky hints from the grill, lettuce and red onions...

...fresh and succulent flavors from the Chunky Tuna (P 125) with lettuce and cucumber...

...and an all-vegetable option with the Veggie Delight (P 95) with bell pepper, lettuce and tomato. Other options include the Grilled Chicken (P 125) variant with lettuce and cucumber and the 5 Cheese Melt (P 125) with American Cheese, Cream Cheese, Cheddar, Mozzarella and Parmesan on crisp lettuce.
