J and HUC decided to eat out on their birthday and went to BRGR Project, a burger joint now gaining fame among Foodies for it's "DIY Burger". Situated along Maginhawa St in Teacher's Village, taking the space once occupied by Pino Resto Bar, BRGR Project is now winning hearts of burger lovers around the area and the Metro.
J and HUC went ahead and got a seat outside but shortly transferred inside the store as they were quite a rowdy group of kids eating at the space outside. They were amazed by how you can come up with a thousand and one (or even more) variants of burger that you could make just by "ticking" an ingredient on their checklist.

For J, his burger was aptly named, the Jock BRGR and for HUC, well, you've guessed it. the Underground Cheerleader's BRGR. This was the first time that HUC would be able to try a Tofu burger. Just in time because she's currently on a diet. She loved it much! and even thought of doing an all Tofu Burger diet. :)

BRGR Project's interior has a diner-y feel with chalkboards, high tables and chairs and Float and Milkshakes on the menu. They also recently added a Lomo wall. Both wonder what will be the next project of Chef Ed Bugia? A dessert shop? JandHUC will surely be on the look out for that one!
