Crispy kangkong (water spinach) has been around as regular appetizer dish in some restaurants. But Frank Gaw, a snacking enthusiast, saw these kangkong leaves as potential snack for kiosks and thought of making the flavoured variety. To test his theory, he, his family and friends joined their first bazar in June 2019 at Fishermall. The feedback they received was so encouraging that they immediately launched KANGKONG KING and opened 4 outlets : Robinsons Place Manila, SM Fairview, Sm Megamall and Robinsons Galleria Ortigas.
