There\u2019s <strong>El Loko Baka<\/strong> (P105), a Tex-Mex-style burger with homemade tomato salsa and cheese sauce. They also have <strong>Black Mamba <\/strong>(P125), a cheeseburger with saut\u00e9ed mushrooms, caramelized onions and a generous topping of Zark\u2019s own barbeque rum sauce. But if you want something in excess, Zark\u2019s Pound for Pound section will leave you speechless.There\u2019s the <strong>Bacon-Wrapped Burger<\/strong> (P230), which is exactly what it says on the tin: a deep-fried bacon-wrapped cheeseburger served with barbeque rum sauce. There\u2019s <strong>Chokeslam<\/strong> (P300), a quadruple-patty burger with bacon, Spam, egg and cheese sauce. And there\u2019s the infamous <strong>Tombstone<\/strong> (P500)- a humongous, ominous two-pound cheeseburger with 300 grams of fries. The Tombstone is strictly not for sharing, and people are even made to sign waivers when they order this monstrosity.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><span style=\"color: #ffffff\">&#8230;<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-8524\" src=\"https:\/\/primer.com.ph\/restaurant\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2015\/04\/Zarks-2.jpg\" alt=\"Zark's (2)\" width=\"850\" height=\"567\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><span style=\"font-size: 10pt\">The Tombstone Burger<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><span style=\"color: #ffffff\">&#8230;<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-size: 12pt\">Zark\u2019s also serve appetizers, rice meals, hotdogs, sandwiches, and various deep-fried chocolate bars with ice cream.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-size: 12pt\">Zark\u2019s mission is to help you find what you love and let it kill you (slowly and deliciously, at least).
