Eat My GF

The burger hunt is definitely heating up!  The Callars, Monique and I went out for Sunday lunch to try Eat My GF, another restaurant along Calderon St., in Little Baguio.  This burger joint serves fast food based on the owner's love affair with the game of baseball.  Of course, the staples are fries, sausages and burgers--with a twist!

The "GF" in the restaurant's name stands for Garlic Fries--you guessed it, the potatoes do have a strong garlicky taste, that they automatically give you fresh mints for after-snack sweeteners.  Burger patties are a mixture of beef and bacon, so the burger's aroma comes across more like longganisa than beef to me.  While the beef-pork mixture is very flavorful, the drawback with the concept is that the buns become oilier than usual, as the fats from the bacon inevitably mushy up the bread.

I had a garlic burger while the kids had the flagship Big Ohh... which has a half pound patty, two bacon strips and an egg!  If you look closely at the menu below, you can see that the names of the food have sly but lovable innuendos which made me chuckle:

Again, GF stands for Garlic Fries, okay?  Prices are bit on the high side for a burger shop, the Big Ohh being P380.  Prepare something like P400 per head then to really enjoy the food.

We were lucky that we had the second floor all to ourselves.  Interiors are simple and cozy, and the running theme is baseball.  They also have board games to keep kids busy and cable TV glued on the sports channel.  We started a round of Monopoly, but ditched the game when the food came in.  I understand from the staff that the group has branches at the Glorietta and at the Alabang Town Center, so that pretty much covers Greenhills, Makati and Alabang.
