“It’s Fresh. It’s Huge. It’s Great.” – Official Zark’s Burgers’ slogan

Well, I can’t say that I’m a newbie with this famous “crowd-drawing” burger joint (this is my 3rd time), but the excitement of sampling their grubs is still there. So you can’t imagine my face when Meeka and I agreed to go here for our first ever blog entry. Spell “totally cool greasy awesomeness, yay!”

Okay, for starters, Zark’s Burgers is a cool burger place that college students (or not, actually, people of all ages) often visit. And why wouldn’t they? I’m not really a burger person, but honestly, they serve some of the finest (and not to mention greasiest) burgers in town– freshly done, put together by hand, and served with uber yummy fries and iced tea. They also offer different goodies aside from burgers, but really, these mouth-watering, fatty goodness in a bun are the stars of every patron’s plates. (And oh, they have some fun– but real deadly– contests; like if you finish a Tombstone burger within 10 minutes, you won’t have to pay for it anymore <Php500> and you’ll get a free “I survived the Tombstone challenge!” shirt, AND finish a Jawbreaker burger within 5 minutes and it’s free! <Php250>)

I’ve actually tasted two of their awesome burgers (Strikeout and Ultimate Burger, all with mushrooms), and since I love mushrooms, this time I chose to munch on their “Bourbon Burger,” filled with a 1/4 pound patty, lots of mushrooms, moist tomatoes, crispy lettuce, yum cheese, and bourbon sauce.

The end. (Lol, just kidding ;>)

Zark’s Bourbon Burger

It was so greasy-heavenly! The sauce surprised my picky taste buds (’cause it’s my first time to taste bourbon sauce) and, yes, I gladly took every calories that’s in there. I have no regrets, as always. A great lunch-up-to-dinner meal for only Php150 (inclusive of fries and iced tea)! Greasy but not pricey!

Two almost-clean plates! :9

No doubt about it– Zark’s is really the place for every burger-hungry folks out there. If you want different awesome takes on burgers, well head on over at Taft or BF Paranaque for some of that yummy dose of calories.
