When POUND first opened, I only read good reviews about their gourmet burgers. As soon as they started opening more branches around the metro, I also started hearing good things about them from friends. But since I don't pass by those areas I didn't get the chance. Now that I do, I grabbed it!
Btw, I would like to thank #WeLoveToEatPH and POUND for the invitation to experience dining at their newest branch.
POUND - SM NORTH EDSA
Like their other branches, this one also feature dim lighting that complements well with the marble tables and plush leather couches. Though it's not as big as their other branches, this one can accommodate up to 30 people. Not bad, right?
Now for the food. Since POUND focuses on delivering gourmet burgers, we ordered their burgers which, by the way, were presented in small boxes as well as other interesting dishes.

What do I recommend?
The Bacon Poutine is a must! For the main dish, you have to decide if you're in the mood for rice or burger. If you chose rice, then go for the Sizzling Pound Moco (Chicken). But if you chose the latter, then pick between the Amsterdam Burger or Secret Menu (don't be shy to ask). Then finish your meal with a lovely T.E. Sundae!
