First Bite: Frittery

I absolutely love comfort food. I find myself munching on it 3 to 4 times a week. Not only is it easy to prepare, it’s oh so yummy! Bacooooon, pancake, fried chicken, more bacooooon! A few weeks back, R and I were so lazy but still opted to go out to celebrate our special day. We wanted to visit Ooma then but after seeing the crazy line to SM Megamall, we went to Promenade instead and discovered…

Frittery.

This little kiosk is owned by Slammin’ Sliders + Fries + Dips and it specializes in hot dogs and fries. Its fries’ menu reminded me of In-N-Out’s animal fries. Yes, I’m referring to that messy goodness.

R and I chose to get Beefy Supreme Loaded Fries (PHP125) and a bottle of Red Strawberry Iced Tea (PHP35).  

After 10 minutes or so, our freshly dip fried fries topped with ground beef, cheese, onions and tomatoes was ready and the tray was handed to me with forks. Guess that made it clear that their fries are not exactly considered as finger food.

Love at First Bite: Burgers & Brewskies

Burgers are love. I still do not get it why restaurants force us to eat burgers with forks and knives but since I do not want to look like a cavewoman amongst my friends, I comply with the social norms (?). Last Saturday, my college friends and I decided to meet up to celebrate the February celebrants’ birthdays. I love it that F and I share the same birth month. I get to share the bill with someone. *Weee!* Anyway, since we were having a hard time deciding where to eat, we opted to visit the new mall at Capitol Commons instead and try Burgers & Brewskies.

Hello, Burgers & Brewskies!

The place was pretty much empty during lunch. Since it was already past 12 when I got there, M, K, L and F already placed their orders. They got the following: Buffalo Wings (PHP220), Call the Nurse (PHP280), Philly (PHP250), Winner Winner Chicken Dinner (PHP230), and Walk of Shame (PHP340). I ordered Kandi (PHP265) and Bacon Chicharon (PHP210). I also got a glass of Cucumber Lemonade and Sweet Potato Fries when I upgraded my burger to a combo (just add PHP80).

The group saved me a wing to try and it had a slightly peppery taste. It was pretty good and flavorful. I totally forgot to try the bleu cheese dip though.

M’s Walk of Shame burger, which comes with spiced mustard aioli, egg-in-a-whole wheat bun, crispy bacon, crisp potato hay (which is very much like PicNic) and B&B Lemonnaise (mayo with lemon?), was a delicious sight! It was like a breakfast burger as it comes with bacon and sunny side up egg!

F’s Philly was the healthiest burger on our table. Beef patty stuffed with sautéed thinly sliced steak and topped with onions and pepper, it was the perfect dish for F. (Not for me though as it doesn’t have bacon.)
