forget diet! enter Big B Burgers, a newly opened burger joint around Maginhawa, which serves one of the best and most unique (so far!) burgers i’ve ever tried.
osya sige, go
item #1: The BIG B Burger (Php 99)
 |
| the major selling point. quarter pound. 50-50 beef x bacon. now drool. |
on first look, it may seem like your usual quarter pounder boasting with a thick patty, and well, stabbed for presentation. but this one’s different! it has a very curious sauce, haha, i wondered at first about those dark strips swimming in the mayo. i thought it was nori (srsly! nori in a burger? wooh), but when i took a bite… oooooooh basil (never heard? read: pesto). aaand it’s called the AWESOME SAUCE, for the obvious reason that the owners probably think it’s awesome, and i do too, so let’s not argue about that.
here’s the Awesome Sauce, which you dispense in what looks like a sauce gun, or something. cool beans huh. >BD i gathered it’s basil, mayo, and sour cream… but that’s just me. haven’t asked.
okay. now let me rave about the patty. IT’S AWESOME. IT’S BACON BACON BACON ALL OVER. i loooove it. and i’m sure you’ll love it too. my golly, writing about it right now makes me crave!
i try not to overstate, but this burger is definitely a must try.
item #2: Pink Potion (Php 20)
now this is pretty common. but what’s unique about this is the way it is served! they give you a glass bottle almost filled with cold water, then give you a potion bottle filled with concentrated pink lemonade, then they pour it on the water. voila! the pink potion!
they also serve Pink Potion w/ feelings (Php 35). yes, haha, that’s not a typo. that’s soda (7-up?) instead of water. haha the feels nga naman.
item #3: Poutine ng Ama Mo (Php 120)
your regular fries swimming in gravy, topped with crabsticks, mozarella (technically it’s under the fries but yeah), and some herb garnish (i don’t really remember the taste). the “Ama Mo” version is 200g, there’s also an “Ina Mo” version which is basically the same, only a hundred grams shy.
i liked this one cos it’s different, but the first time it was served, the mozarella hasn’t melted well yet. so there’s this awkward block of cheese in our fries that i didn’t enjoy. haha but on our second visit (the burger is heavily beckoning, i’m sorry!) the food was well tempered so the mozarella was gooey and yummy and all over our fries! yeyy!
over all, it’s a great place to try out! specially for those who love burgers and find pure beef patties rather mainstream already (as if 100% pure beef patties ever run out of style!). if you want a new take on yer patties, Big B Burgers is the place to be!
The Menu
so far they have these, zoom to read.
Random Stuff
the area is rather small and it’s not airconditioned ha, it can only probably sit around 12 people, so you might wanna take-out (+ Php 5).
the walls are plastered with all sorts of witty notes and stuff. hahaha
the owners are very friendly and accommodating, specially the lady owner who’s always so gay and perky! >XD
and loook, they offer plastic gloves to those who don’t want to mess their hands with the burger. sosyalin. haha!
