The Sides: More Than Just an Afterthought
The array of fries served here deserve a special mention. Cut fresh and fried to golden perfection, they’re crispy on the outside, fluffy on the inside, and generously seasoned. Whether you’re opting for regular fries, cheese fries, or their specialty fries, there’s something for everyone. The Angry Chicken Fries really won me over. And I made a note to myself to try their Chopped Cheese Fries next time!
The Drinks: A Sweet Finale
No meal at Bun Haus is complete without one of their legendary milkshakes or floats! Thick, creamy, and made the old-fashioned way, these shakes are a meal in themselves. As a Filipina, I truly appreciated the fact that they offer an Ube flavored soda float!!
