Indulge weekends: Davao's best burger (Backyard Burgers)

This is going to be my very first food review and i'm not really sure how i'm going to be doing this or how i'm going to begin but let me just put this out, i am not the biggest fan of burgers, the ONLY burger i really crave for is the Jollibee aloha burger mainly because it's huge and how can i miss out the bacon, the mushrooms and the humongous pineapple? Okay i'm gonna have to stop myself before i head to the nearest Jollibee. I know blogging about food is not a good idea when you're currently on your period but seriously, that is the only burger i can really eat and i don't even crave for it as often as some people do. But living in Davao city how can i miss the most talked about Backyard Burgers when it's literally just outside our village. A lot of people have been raving about it, it's all over my Facebook timeline and my Instagram feed so how can i not be curious? So is it really worth the hype?  

Yesterday, Dirk and i decided to finally give in and try the famous Backyard Burgers. As you all know we have been eating healthy for quite some time now and we usually indulge on weekends. We haven't been indulging for the past couple of weeks because we just didn't really feel like eating out plus Dirk was super busy with work. But since it's shark week for me (if you know what i mean) and it's the last day of Kadayawan we decided to head to Backyard Burgers. We went to their Matina branch which was just right outside our village. I really like the whole vibe of the place. It seems to be an old house from the 80's  that has been renovated into an American Diner. I love the fact that we don't have to wait in line because the place wasn't packed, maybe because it was already 3pm and it was a Sunday.




There's just something about these kinds of lighting in restaurants and diners that makes me feel really relaxed and hungry. Mehehe! I don't know if i'm making any sense but whatever, you get the idea.

Dirk and i were starving at this point because the place smells so heavenly. The smell of grilled burgers makes me drool like a wild dog and i just can't wait to get my hands on those burgers. 


 
Dirk ordered the Extra cheesy Burger


 
And i ordered the one with Bacon


The verdict? 

O to the M to the GGG! Both were scrumptious and very satisfying i must admit. I think i finally found my new favorite and i'm pretty sure Dirk agrees with me. You can really tell that the patties are high quality beef, i don't know if that's the right term but the beef patty taste really good. Another plus about backyard burgers is their buns. They taste so good that i had to leave out the other bun for later so i can take my time and really indulge. Usually when i eat burgers from other restaurants their buns don't taste that good. I mean they just taste so plain and i don't really like that. this for me is the total package. I'm not entirely sure if this is the yummiest burger here in Davao, there may be more out there but so far to me this is the best. I'm looking forward to another cheat day so we can try out the other best sellers in their menu. For the out of towners out there, you cannot leave Davao without trying out Backyard Burgers. Do yourselves a favor and head to the nearest Backyard Burgers and indulge. Period.
