I haven't been able to go to SM Supercenter Pasig for ages and a lot has definitely changed in a couple of years. I used to work in the nearby Eastwood district but have left and never looked back. Now I miss a lot of things especially the lovely food I used to enjoy after office hours or when I can grab a quick lunch. See, there's this place inside the SM Supercenter Pasig called The Great American Burger Joint (or you can call it The Burger Joint). Although they've got good name recall I haven't really heard of them yet or what they have to offer. Being a huge burger lover myself, it just was music to my ears to hear that they have huge servings of lovely, legit American Beef burgers. It's a dream to actually have something done right and this might be a good spot to have that.
The Burger Joint (as what most people call the place) is a child project of entrepreneur partners and Chef Allan Geonzon who are veterans of the Food Truck scene in the US. They brought the love for food in the Philippines and felt this was the opportune time to introduce great American food to the market. We love it to start with, but having great servings at very friendly prices is not a common sight in restaurants in Manila. Since it's placed near the Tiendesitas area, office workers, dog lovers, and families would probably benefit from having The Great American Burger Joint in this location. It's a bit of a drive from GMA QC area but they've got tons of things to make you feel the trip to the East of Manila worth it.

The Burger Joint also had us try their home made Maltshakes. It's thick and creamy. They also used cakes, cookies, berries, salted pretzels, marshmallows, local chocolates, imported ones just to make it your dream drink. They had us try these even if it wasn't in the menu yet so YOU have a lot to look forward to in a couple of months. I loved the last one the most as it's like a circus, pretty colorful and they used the local chocolates quite well in the drink. I won't mind going back just for that.
So go and visit them today at The Great American Burger Joint in SM Supercenter Pasig. They are on the right side of the building right across Transcom. It's also accessible from C5 so just come up Tiendesitas for parking then walk across the street, it's there. The burgers here are good, pretty messy when you eat, but that's exactly what you need to experience when you want a great burger. They're certainly not holding back on flavor, ingredients and if you're looking for something new, you might regret NOT going there!
