They are so many things in life that can brighten up my day like traveling far north to chill at a hole-in-the-wallburger and wings jointplusboard game cafe called Burger Company. Yes, the best of all three worlds!
Burger Company is actually the reopened Boulevard Diner which I shared two years ago. Not that I didn't like the old Boulevard Diner with a retro 50's American ambiance. But, I'm totally sold by Burger Company's offer of play and WiFi all you want for a minimum order of 150 php.
Yes, I happen to be a gamegeek and I'm quite thrilled that they havethe best table top games like Rio Grande games'Settlers of Catan and Carcassone. I'm one of the many who are actually glad that game cafes are now more reasonably priced. A few years back, we used to spend thousands at the closed down Game Crab Cafe just to play.
It has a laid back and fun vibe.
They also have a eating challenge for their burger and wings. I want to try this on my next visit. =)
Unfortunately, I didn't know about them being a board game cafe concept otherwise, I would have visited with game geek friends. But, my visit was not bad too, since I got to discover and play (and win) a Taiwanese card game called Super Rhino.
Food
What sets Burger Companyapart from other board game cafes is that it was a diner specializing in food first before they added the board game cafe so you're assured with their food quality.
Starters
To start our meal rightor should I say wrong but worth every bit of the guilt, we ordered the Homemade Bacon Dippers. It's better than eating the ordinary crispy bacon because it has added oil and crunchiness. I like it as is. But, you can also dip it on the cheese sauce if you want.
Angus Beef Burgers
The Green Chile & Sour Creamis a burger that will give you a sizzling spicewith those green chili. But, not to worry as the sour cream neutralizes it a bit. I like their soft oatmeal buns and their chargrilled USDA Angus Beef patties are satisfying for the price.
The Gorgonzola & Mushroom is my kind of burger. If I would create my own burger, it would be something like this. I find the combination of gorgonzola dressing and oyster mushroom to be really hearty for a mushroom and cheese lover like me.
If you love cheese sauce like most of my companions, The Striker's Burger is for you. I liked the idea of adding crispy crisscut fries and champignon mushroom on it too.
Chicken Wings
The Cocoa & Chili has a nice bitter-sweetness followed by a spicy kick. Their wings are saucy and right-sized (not skinny).
The Smoked Chili is a mildly sweet but dominantly fiery. It was good but I'd still prefer spicy buffalo wings over it.
Tsinoy Foodies Verdict
Whether it's for burgers, wings or board games (added a star for this!), head on over to Burger Company. If only this place is within my turf, this would be my ideal chill spot.
