Short on time but craving quality? Beginning 2026, Burger & Lobster will be your fast, flavorful errand-day fix.

Mom Violy had been craving lobster but was hesitant to try dining at Burger & Lobster. She mentioned the restaurant to a family member, who said the food was delicious but pricey. She told Carmina she wanted to eat there for lunch on Saturday, January 3rd. Since it was the new year, we decided to explore and try something different. Many tables had reservations, but they also accepted walk-ins, just like we did today. Our server handed us the menu. Carmina already knew what she wanted to order: BBQ Beef Ribs for 1,190 pesos ($20.17). Mom Violy and a family member decided to share the Combo One at B&L for 5,290.00 pesos ($89.66), along with garlic rice for 90.00 pesos ($1.53).

Frozen Mango Dragonfruit and Blue Lemonade from Auntie Anne's

  We know summer is approaching in the Philippines when you see a sign board serving Frozen Lemonade. The best thing if you don't like the pure lemonade there is a way to try with another fruit.

If you want the typical Blue Lemonade and Lemonade they also have it. Each mixed frozen lemonade is for 165.00 pesos ($3.06) not including vat for 12%. Auntie Anne's had samples of their new Blueberry Cheesecake Pretzel. It was good not too sweet. I wasn't really after the pretzel only wanted something to drink.
