Walking around shopping in SM Seaside City Cebu isn’t easy. It’s tiring strolling through this massive infrastructure of a mall. So what’s the best thing to do after a whole afternoon of window shopping marathon? It’s to eat dinner at Zark’s Burgers. There’s lots of things to choose from the menu but what caught my eye is the Grilled Cheeseburger Meal.
Price Of Grilled Cheeseburger Meal Costs ₱ 364
When this order was served at my table, at first you might think it’s a pancake because it looks like one, but no. It’s actually is a smashed burger buns cooked flat until crispy as it’s how cheeseburgers are prepared. They don’t cook this in a charcoal grill as there are no signs of burn marks from grill patterns but they’re using a flat top grill.
There are two options you can order this in their menu. You can either choose Solo which you only get the Cheeseburger for a price of ₱ 279 or upgrade to a meal for an additional ₱ 85.
What I got from the upgrade was Regular Size Side and Drink. If you look at the picture above, my drink was a Blue Lemonade and some French Fries but totally forgot what I chose. To the fans of Zark’s Burgers; can you help me which one I got if you can recognize them. It could be either Cheddar Cheese, Sour Cream, Texas BBQ, and Truffle based on their menu or I could’ve been served ordinary fries. You also get a box of plastic hand gloves so you won’t get your hands dirty which is good customer service.
What’s Inside The Grilled Cheeseburger?
It tastes so good! What you’re seeing here is smashed burger buns, burger patty, and cheddar cheese. I love a bit of crisp on the burnt burger buns ’cause it adds texture. The buns are smashed flat like a pancake which makes it easy to eat unlike big whopper hamburgers where you have to open your mouth wide to get a bite. After having a few bites and savoring the flavors of the burger, the melty cheese gives a good creamy, gooey, and smooth sensation that complements the patty but…something felt peculiar within. Something very familiar yet rarely seen in many of the burgers I’ve tried in my entire life.
I thought that my imagination might be playing with me. It was indeed cheesy but there was some spiciness to it. I got curious and opened the other half of the cheeseburger and what came upon me was bits of jalapeños swimming in melted cheese. I love it because I’m into spicy foods!
