BBQ-All-You-Can in Charaptor

"I want to make tusok-tusok the isaw!"

A tusok-tusok ihaw haven, for the sosyal, it was! The concept's very Pinoy minus the free germs and the kanto-style. Bravo to the brainchild of Charaptor! 

Barbecue all you can

At Php 390 (dinner weekdays), selection of meats and veggies on stick were available for grilling. Each table has its own grilling set-- with charcoals! It's not smoke-less, by the way. Thus, in Charaptor it's dine al fresco.

Cooks meat fast!

Compared to regular buffets, they had lesser food options. But of course manong bbq cannot compete with their food selection. That time, they had chicken, ribs, pork, ham, hotdogs, squid fish, quail or tofu wrapped in bacon, shrimps, butayaki (looks like kebab), squid balls, salmon balls, gizzard intestines of both chicken and pork. Plus veggies to grill such as corn, potatoes and others.

For the grills

Look at the bacon wraps!

1st batch

Too bad, though, they didn't have fish balls. 

To appease that sad face, table of sauces and dips were available to complement every dish available. I didn't dip much in the sauces as the meat themselves were already flavorful. Too bad they don't have peanut sauce! 

Sauces in every way!

For the stomach who can't wait, there were french fries, kimchi, chicharon, siomai, mashed potatoes and etc. Their mashed potato was good! Perfect for the hungry. 

Cheese sticks, french fries and mashed potato :)

Surprisingly, desserts were served such as crinkles and meringue. Not to expect too much from the desserts though, as the crinkles were tough I would've sworn it was bought in the nearest bakery. Haha. 

This meringue looks familiar ;)

Drinks were refillable, too. No soft drinks, only powdered juices. 

Yes put ice on the fats

Good price. Good service. Food selection was fine. The only thing I didn't enjoy was my inability to tell if my meat was cooked already which resulted in a few minor and major burns. 

For the new concept, minus the carcinogen intake, my verdict:
