Knorr turns Mall of Asia water fountain into a giant Sinigang soup bowl with GIGIL
GIGIL Philippines has teamed up with Knorr to turn a 59-foot diameter fountain in Mall of Asia, the biggest mall in the Philippines, into a giant Sinigang bowl—Filipinos’ beloved tamarind soup.
Each vegetable and meat slice, reaching dimensions up to 18 ft., were made with curves and texture to appear as realistic and crave-worthy as possible. The water in the fountain was dyed the same rich color of Sinigang. Perforated hoses at the fountain’s base were connected to smoke machines, giving the illusion of rising steam from a piping hot bowl of soup. The steam was also infused with Sinigang essence, allowing the soup’s signature sour savory-aroma to waft into the air. Several publications and news outlets featured the giant installation after Knorr’s mouthwatering display stirred up quite the clamor.
