To Burgoo or not to go--that is the question

Shrimp Popcorn Caesar

It's been a while since I dined at Burgoo. There's a branch near my office but there's another American chain that I prefer. A friend gifted me with a Burgoo discount card last Christmas and I forgot about it until last week. Using the discount card, I am entitled to a 50% discount for every P1000 food purchase, but only for dine-in, no take outs.:p

I enjoyed the Shrimp Popcorn Caesar--the lettuce was crisp but it's a bit short on shrimps. They should call it Caesar with shrimp popcorn. The Shrimp Arrabiata (yes, I was on a shrimp trip that day) is supposed to be one of their best-sellers but it was bland and uninspired. My taste buds were looking for the vodka sauce, the flavor of basil and chili--nada.

Maybe I should go back.:p

    It's interesting how the common Caesar salad has spawned so many delicious variants. Here in Thailand, one of the best I have tried is the Farang Caesar Salad available in a Thai-Italian fusion eateries with two branches in Phuket and one in Bangkok. 2 - 3 USD for a delicious heap of green garden goodness!

    we enjoy dining at Burgoo, too. specially since you can make doodles on their table "covers" while you wait for your food. lol.

    thanks again, LM
