The Hawaii’s top burger is all set to its Philippine
debut on Saturday, August 23, 2014 at Greenbelt 3, Makati City. The co-founder
of Teddy’s USA, Ted Tsakiris gives some clues of Teddy’s Burger secret success.
He says, Teddy’s is built from the burger, borne out of a passion for burgers.
It was started in the backyard cookouts of
Hawaii-based founders Ted Tsakiris and Rich Stula who are both burger lovers
until they decided to open a burger restaurant to share it with other burger
lover. Teddy’s Bigger Burgers Philippines Executive Chef Kirsten Habawel, who
headed the Teddy’s PH team sent to train in Hawaii.
Since its inception in 1998, Teddy’s Bigger Burgers
has opened in 11 locations in Hawaii, and recently on US mainland in Washington
and Iowa, with stores soon to open in California and Texas. The Philippines
marks Teddy’s 2nd international location, following to Japan.
The secret of great burgers is the patty and Teddy’s
stands by its pure meat patties. Their burgers are bigger than the average
burger. They use the formula of 80% lean meat and 20% fat with no
preservatives.
Burger sizes also set Teddy’s apart, with “Big,” “Bigger,”
and “Biggest” patties. They start at 5 oz (Big) – that’s already a 1/3 pounder
– and go on to 7 oz (Bigger) and 9 oz (Biggest) for our Original single
patties, and our Monster Doubles (double patty sandwiches) go up to 10 oz, 14
oz, and 18 oz and its top with their original special sauce. The sauce is color
yellow but it doesn’t have any mustard in it is an aioli that goes perfectly
with the burgers and they use potato bun.
To
celebrate its Philippine debut, Teddy’s will treat its first 100 customers with
free Teddy’s Original Burger (5 oz.) on its August 23 opening day, with the
first five in line to receive one year supply of burgers and other prizes for
