BRGR

I already mentioned in a few posts back how Maginhawa St. in Teacher's Village is fast becoming known as a foodie village. This time around, Z and I checked out the recently opened BRGR: The Burger Project.

From the same people who opened Pino Resto + Bar, BRGR is located at the previous spot of Pino, which is beside Sancho. It's pretty small, and parking can be really hard, especially when taxi drivers use this area as their taxi stand. :| Anyway, so we managed to park and were glad that there weren't too many people dining in BRGR during that time.

So how does ordering work here? First, you pick up a clipboard by the counter which has a burger form you have to fill up. You choose the meat you want, either 100% beef or tofu. And then, how many patties can you devour, 1, 2 or 3? Next, you pick your bun, it's either poppyseed or potato bun, which costs you 20 pesos more (I think). After the bun, you can pick your cheese; they offer mozzarella and bleu cheese. And then you have a long list of 14 toppings to choose from. I seriously had a hard time picking out my toppings, but ended up with Canadian bacon, tomato, and lettuce on my one 100% beef patty with bleu cheese in between the poppyseed bun. On the other hand, Z ordered for 2 patties on poppyseed bun with mozzarella, lettuce, barbecue sauce, caramelized onions, and Canadian bacon. Does that sound too much? Well you gotta see it to believe it!

Photo taken by Z. This was his burger; just by looking at it, you can already feel heartburn coming :o it was HUGE.

Those were seriously big burgers, but really really good ones. I'd like to believe this would top my list for best burgers in Metro Manila, and that would mean beating Brothers Burger and S&R Cheeseburger.
