Burgoo (2/F SM Mall of Asia, Pasay)
Burgoo has been a long-time favorite of mine, but I haven’t had the chance to visit it for more than a year now. Recently, after aimlessly gallivanting at the Mall of Asia, we treated ourselves to a hearty, thousand-calorie dinner here. 
Started off with the Supreme Sampler (P395 – regular) appetizer platter, which has the bestselling buffalo wings, Sta. Fe spring rolls, chimichanga, and onion rings
My Kiwi Cooler (P145) was refreshing and light
A plate of Cheddar Fries (P145) always gets us started right
The main event — a small order of the Shrimp and Ribs platter (P595), with a half slab of charbroiled Oklahoma-style pork ribs, sausage slices, sweet corn, tasty fried shrimps, and french fries. A complete and very satisfying meal.
The Chicken Teriyaki Noodles (P275) is a new item on the menu, with deep fried chicken strips and oriental style pasta. The teriyaki sauce is served on the side (not pictured).
Grilled Pork Chops (P295) — two thick grilled herb-seasoned pork chops with gravy, corn on the cob, and rice pilaf
Desserts were just as eventful with the creamy-sweet Oreo Cake (P175)..
..and the classic fave Mud Pie (P155).
Setting. American themed casual-dining bistro, great for groups and families.
Service. Pretty standard; we needed to call the servers’ attention a couple of times. Not particularly as memorable as those in comparable establishments, but nothing major to complain about.
Price range: ~P500-700 per head will go a long way
Overall verdict. Burgoo, like T.G.I. Fridays and Outback Steakhouse, is a bistro chain, and thus should be reviewed and enjoyed as such. With good food, big servings, and a casual, laid-back ambiance, Burgoo remains on my favorites list.

Dining out with family is always a happy occasion for me, especially if the food is good. A while back, we feasted at the popular premium-tier branch of Dencio’s, aptly named Kabisera ng Dencio’s, presumably as it is on the farthest end of Bonifacio High Street and that it seems…
