MAKE WAY FOR MARCO'S 3-WAY
Imagine pizza as Pinoy as Pepe & Pilar, John & Marsha, Guy & Pip, Bongbong & Kris, Dingdong & Marian, Mahal & Mura, Mike & Mel...
Now imagine no more.
Introducing the all-new Marco's 3-Way.
It's the latest addition to our growing Armando's Pizza family.
The same spicy sweet, crispy crust "picha pie" you've always craved for but with an unabasedly Pinoy sensibility—delightfully discriminating, provocatively provincial, and shamelessly straight and true.
It's Pizza with a capital "P," obviously designed and engineered not for everybody. But, hey, who wants to be everybody?
Marco's 3-Way*. Sun-dried tomatoes and kesong puti in three of your favorite Filipiniana flavors: tuyo (yes), tinapa (yes), and classic pinoy chicken adobo (yes!).
Onananutapa? Balen, Mangan tana!

*Marco's 3-Way, contrary to the rumor, takes its name after Marco D. Nepomuceno (owner/manager of Armando's Pizza) and not after the late Philippine strongman.
