What's for breakfast?

Tropical Hut, Q-Plaza branch

Toby writes:

Breakfast is the most important and Pen's favorite meal of the day. And, only one restaurant acknowledges this fact; it's none other than Tropical Hut with their delicious Hamburger Meal.

I've been enjoying this for a really long time, and when Pen got tired of the usual breakfast we were having at a very popular fast food chain, I suggested that she should have a taste of Tropical Hut’s breakfast meal for a change. I'm really glad that she was delighted to try when I brought it up to her.

Hamburger Meal (90php)

The meal consists of 2 fried eggs, a burger patty, 3 butter toasts, and a slice of tomato and cucumber. The meal is accompanied by a cup of brewed coffee, which has one free refill, and a glass of juice of your choice. Talk about complete diet in the morning. The burger patty is juicy and tender, the eggs are cooked to our liking (sunny side up), and their toasts are sweet, buttery, milky, and very tasty (literally and figuratively). Having a first bite of this gives you something more than taste but a breakfast dining experience as well. The meal is really heavy and you can go through most of the day without eating lunch. A real value for money!

If you are tired of the same old routinary breakfast meal you're having for years now, then we suggest that you treat your taste buds for a delightful and filling meal, the Tropical Hut Hamburger Breakfast. Oh, and after trying, don't even try making one at home; you'll just be disappointed.

Reuniting with Tropical Hut's Classic Burger

Tropical Hut has been our usual burger joint ever since Toby and I started dating. Back when Toby was still courting me, he frequently invites me to have lunch or dinner at Tropical Hut since their branches are considerably near our place. We usually stay either at Taytay or Q Plaza, near Sta. Lucia.


However, because of different reasons, it took us a while to be able to revisit his favorite restaurant which made me crave our usual order, the Classic Burger meal. Hence my excitement when Toby fetched me after class the other night, and invited me to have dinner at Tropical Hut. After not being able to eat a Classic Burger for so long, my first bite on that bad boy made me foodgasm. Hahaha!

Tropical Hut Classic Burger (120php/meal)

Classic didn't disappoint us, it was still as good as we remembered it to be. Their burger patties were still as tasteful and tender. They were slightly dry, but nothing a drizzle of their huge bottled ketchup can't fix. Their sesame seed buns which I was always a fan of, were still served fresh and hot. It always gives me a certain nostalgic feeling because of how it reminds me of my lola and the usual pan de sal she'd feed me every morning, whenever I spend a weekend with her and lolo, back when I was younger.

In terms of value for money, their Classic Burger, and even the other items on Tropical Hut's menu, are worth the spend. 200 to 300php is enough to buy a fulfilling meal for two. Now, that's a bargain you shouldn't miss!
