When it comes to creating joyful experiences, NakNak knows that happiness goes beyond what’s on the plate. The Korean-inspired Malaysian Quick Service Restaurant (QSR) brand took this philosophy to the next level with its first-ever Pickle & Play with NakNak event!
Serving More Than Just Great Food
Held at First Shot Pickleball PJ, one of the city’s hottest pickleball spots, the event reflected NakNak’s ongoing commitment to bringing Malaysians together through shared experiences. In collaboration with Fanta, the event came alive with vibrant colours, cheerful energy, and of course, delicious food.
A Day Of Fun And Flavour
At the heart of Pickle & Play was a celebration of togetherness. Guests (who are mostly pickleball beginners) got to learn the sport through guided sessions and friendly matches. The sport’s growing popularity among youths and Gen Z made it the perfect choice for NakNak’s first sports-themed event.
Between games, guests indulged in NakNak’s freshly prepared comfort food, featuring favourites such as Nak Dak Soy Garlic Boneless Thighs, Nak Dak Burgers, Cheeseburgers, and crispy Original Fries with Cheese Sauce and Gochujang Sauce. Each dish was perfectly paired with colourful Fanta flavours creating a refreshingly fun dining experience.
Where Creativity Is Expressed
The excitement didn’t stop on the court. Beyond the pickleball matches, guests got to express their creativity through DIY keychain customisation and explore NakNak’s best-selling merchandise. To top it off, a lucky draw worth RM2,000 added an extra layer of thrill and anticipation.
Looking Ahead: More Flavours, More Fun
NakNak’s Pickle & Play was a glimpse into the brand’s bright future. With plans to launch a new limited-time menu in late October and five new outlets across the Klang Valley by year-end, NakNak is poised to bring even more fresh flavours and joyful experiences to Malaysians.
Founded in 2022, NakNak has quickly become a local favourite for its Korean Fried Chicken, Premium Beef Burgers, and crispy Fries, all made with 100% fresh, premium ingredients. Today, with eight outlets across the Klang Valley and more on the way, NakNak continues to stay true to its mission, that is to spread joy, one bite at a time.
