It’s a matter of perspective.
Life seems to be so complicated. How we look at things gives the difference. If we could make “things” answerable by yes or no, wouldn’t that be great? ;) no “or” or “maybe”s. If life is that simple wouldn’t it be better?
Breakfast @ Stackers.
Ordered their stack burger (most basic among their wide variety of burgers) w/ fries and drink upgrade.
Not bad for the price of 170 pesos,
Ther Review:
Burger: 6/10
- the patty was dry, but the add on’s were great, specially their options on sauces, had aussie beef sauce.
Fries: 7/10
- fresh, crisp and well seasoned.
Drink: 4/10
- had pepsi light, very bland. I don’t think it was because of the ice, drank it freshly served. sodas in can still wins.
Service: 7/10
-Well mannered, polite.
Overall: 7/10
- a go to place in cases of sudden hunger.
Will try their premium options next time.
