Zark's Burgers

Location: SM City North EDSA

We never thought we'd finally be able to eat here because it's always full whenever we pass by this restaurant, and people were lining outside already. But, as they say, timing is everything. You just have to be there early to be able to sit down and eat without having to line up.

Zark's menu is divided into several categories, such as Burgers, Ribs, Rice/Starters, Hotdogs/Sandwiches, Desserts, Drinks, and Dips, wherein the burgers are subdivided into Minor League and Major League.

Since this is both our first time at Zark's, we both ordered Zark's Ultimate Burger (described as "1/4 pound burger with cheese sauce in a bed of fresh veggies and topped with sauteed mushroom and bacon!"). Their patty is juicy and peppery, but we couldn't complain. It's just heaven. The bacon seems to be fresh; we couldn't detect the bacon to be like the ones you buy in the grocery, the salty and stiff ones. The fries aren't oily. They are of the right crispiness. Ketchup and mayonnaise are available on the table so you can make your own dip for the fries. One order costs Php140, and additional Php30 for fries and a glass of iced tea.

The food is delicious, however the place is small. But I love the fact that they were like the restaurants where they bring the menu over to you.

SHE SAID:
This is one of the best tasting burgers I've had. For its price, it's worth it. Service is good, serving might be a little slow, but I guess it's because they cook your food only when you order it.

We'd definitely return here and try other burgers in their menu.

About Us

First of all, welcome to our blog, The Taste Lovers. 

Who are we? We are one couple who loves to eat out especially before he takes her home after work, if time permits. We often eat at the common fast food chains, and sometimes we eat elsewhere in the malls. With our constant food trips, we kept planning to rate this food and that, yet we keep putting it off, until now.

In this blog, we will take you to our gastronomic journey around the Metro (around the country too, soon!), may it be your ordinary fast food chain or otherwise. Also, as much as possible, we will post the food pictures we personally took so you guys can see the difference between the reality and what is in the advertisement. Location to be read here is where the food was bought. The food we ordered will be rated, and we will be giving his and her comments/reactions regarding our respective orders, prices, and store ambiance to name a few.

So, in the next few days we will start posting and wake your appetite up. Then we would love to hear comments from you afterwards.

:)
