Charlie's

It's been a while since our last visit at Charlie's Grind and Grill in Kapitolyo.

I still remember  how delicious and juicy their burgers were and how hole-in-the-wall (ish) the whole place was,  given that it was beside a car wash. Moreover the place itself  had a rundown feel.

Turned out there was a fire more than a year ago, followed by a rebuilding and renovation August last year.

After a 5 month hiatus, this 10 year old  "OG" Ol Gangster of a the better burger as Mr.  Ian (Marketing Manager) succintly put it, is back.
                 
                          * Burgers patties are never frozen (still)
                          * Charlie's Grind and Grill still grind their own meats
                          * potatoes are fresh and fried only upon ordering
                          * Value for money
                       

You will be pleased to find a newer ambiance with a predominantly gray and orange theme.  Charlie's is still beside a car wash which I guess is its charm for me

There are two types of burger.

Take your pick from the angus or the wagyu burgers. If it were me though, I'll order both. To hell with your diet . Sorry my inner-carnivore-monster had taken over hahaha

What is going for Charlie's  is their amazing burger, quality and fresh ingredients matched with very affordable prices.

The kind-on-the-pocket  price range must have something to do with location as well  because Charlie's is not in a fancy-schmancy mall.

Case in point :

         Wagyu Cheese Burger          P240
         Double Wagyu                 P385
                      Black Angus Cheese Burger    P230
         Double Black Angus           P370

         Add ons :
         Smoked bacon                  P50
         Gorgonzola                    P95
         Portobello                    P220
         among a few....
                     
Fries -  Talk about freshly cut and real potatoes fried to perfection only upon ordering.

Sauces - choose among aioli, horseradish, american catsup, russian, mustard, etc.

Wings - Half a dozen is P295 while a dozen is P505. Choose from among 5 flavors ie  Puneta P330/P560 , sticky P295/P505, Garlic Parmesan P355/P595, Honey BBQ P295/P505

Love how succulent and flavorful their wings were. Frankie's better watch out.

Overall had a great time rediscovering Charlie's Grind and Grill with foodie friends. CGG has a branch in Sgt. Esguerra and  another one coming up soon somewhere in the south.

Definitely returning with the piggery in tow.

Thank you  CGG and @jamsaysyumm for the invite  and @johnbunag for the fabulous flatlay as usual
