Franz Burger

The burger was quite large by Filipino standards. It was on a sesame seed bun, with exactly three nacho chips on the side. The burger patty was thicker than the usual, juicy and well-seasoned, but not like those American-style burgers which you can still taste a week after you ate them. This was definitely a Pinoy burger – with more substance. X’s chili burger was also good. For under a hundred pesos per order, this was a good and filling meal.

When we were done we rang the bell and manang came out and cheerfully handed us our bill and two tall glasses of iced water. We rubbed our tummies and walked out into the afternoon sun, thinking we’d be back to try the other burgers. I thought it was a worthwhile food trip.

I first saw the small joint when we were trying to find our way back to Tomas Morato while avoiding the traffic caused by water service maintenance diggers. It claimed to have great grilled burgers, and I was fascinated that the owners chose to open shop in an inconspicuous part of a district lined with big-named dining joints.

I asked the waitress (who was a friendly manang) what the difference was, and she said the regular burgers were made of regular ground beef, but the special burgers were made from ground sirloin.

I recommend that you try this stuff because Franz Burger offers yummy and huge burgers at affordable prices. I nibbled on a Mexican Chili Burger worth 112 Pesos while Cai gobbled on Philly Cheese Burger, also worth 112 bucks. Along with Cai’s meal, she also grabbed a watermelon shake. Franz Burger also offers pasta’s and rice meals (steaks, as far as I can remember). If you are near this place or if the address is somehow accessible, I recommend that you try out this burger joint.
