The Experience

Only PhP 100 left in your pocket? Rufo's will definitely one of your best picks for a date.


Aside from their famous tapa served with rice and egg, they have also come up with new pocket friendly offerings: their Fil-Am Fusion menu. At under PhP60 per item, you'll get the flavor and service of casual dining at fastfood prices. Buddy was very much in awe with this deal.

We tried two items in this menu: Spaghetti Bola-bola and the Rufo Burger. Both did not disappoint.

Their spaghetti was far from the usual fastfood spag (no bola here). It still has the Pinoy sweet touch but still has the tangy tomato taste. It also has meatballs and a generous amount of sauce and cheese. Their serving size is also larger than the average fastfood serving.



The Rufo Burger was a hit! It had a thick pattie rubbed with the same sauce as their famous tapa sandwiched in between sesame topped buns. It also had tomato and lettuce slices. That's how far your PhP 39 can get!

Buddy was very much satisfied. Kirsten and I definitely agree.
