Mister Kebab
Mister Kebab is a nostalgic place for me: my fam used to live relatively near it and my biological bros and I spent many a late-night eating there after sneaking the car out to play Counter Strike (remember when that was a thing?). I only ever ordered the keema with eggplant. I never knew exactly what it was, and I still don’t, but it was so good. And their rice was always served with a dollop...

FOOD CAMP!
Food Camp! So, like I said, I finally got to try Food Camp’s burgers. I’d been masochistically viewing Food Camp’s Facebook page and other blog’s reviews for weeks, so I was really stoked (it’s still the aughts!) to finally go “camping” (I had clowns for breakfast). I went last Sunday with la mamasita; it was at dinnertime and the place was empty except...

Leslie's Farmer John's Premium Potato Chips:...
These are so good! They taste almost exactly like Ruffles Cheddar and Sour Cream but for like a third the price. The ridges are shallower though but that doesn’t matter. Get on this, you guys! And start putting them in your mouths before they decide to stop making them!

Jollibee's Hash Brown Burger
Jollibee’s R&D guy/Product developer/Taste scientist or whatever probably stalks my Facebook or Tumblr. They had a McGriddle-like sandwich before (McDonald’s here doesn’t sell McGriddles for some dumb reason—I can be as fat as an American!), and when KFC’s Tower Burger came out, the first think I thought of was that that should’ve just been a Double Down but...

RIP Hungry Hippo
The Hungry Hippo in Dapitan is closed. It was the only decent burger joint within miles of where I live and study at currently. There’s also a certain nostalgia to there burgers: they had a 24-hour branch near where I grew up, and many a late-night binging was on there burgers, especially their Burger and Egg. So now I am left with nothing but fast food burgers, which are more expensive than...

LATE BLOG POST: ARMY-NAVY
I’ve had an Army-Navy burger twice now: the first one was last sunday at SM North Edsa (Skygarden), after I picked the baby mama up at the bus station. The second one was earlier this afternoon (same place), before I dropped the ol’ ball and chain off at the bus station (same station).
I have heard of Army-Navy a lot before, from friends mostly and this...

Shakey's Cheeseburger Pizza
So me and the girlfriend (JEALOUS?) had a late night at college (JEALOUS?) because I was working on my thesis (JEALOUS?). And as you know, I am a burger man but the ol’ ball and chain had been craving pizza the whole day. And ya’ll know how it is, ya’ll know how love is. So we decided to compromise and decided to try the All-American Cheeseburger Pizza at Shakey’s, which...

McDonald's Quarter Pounder plus Chicken Nuggets
Ay yo! First off, Fast Food isn’t as vilified here in the Philippines as it is in the West. There’s no classism about fast food here—everybody eats fast food. Every kid had a birthday/wants to have a birthday in McDonald’s or Jollibee or whatevs. Everyone has fond memories of and involving fast food joints. Besides, an order of large fries and drinks here is like a small in...

Food Blog!
Ay, yo! This blog’s not gonna be just about burgers although it was made because of all the hours of masochistic perusing of food blogs about burger joints, and the menus and facebook pages of those burger joints. This blog was made with those burger joints in mind but there’s only so much burger joints. So it’s not gonna be a burger-only blog. There will be posts about other...
