It's getting Hut in here

You know you're old when one of the brands you frequent as a kid is now being called a "nostalgic brand" on the internet.

Such is the case of Tropical Hut.


The past weeks, the internet has been on fire as thousands and thousands of people were posting about Tropical Hut Hamburgers. These posts helped renew interest for the brand, and now, the news is that the branches are happily dealing with a sudden surge of customers. 

Personally, I'm glad that people are rediscovering this under-the-radar fast food brand because it's really, really, REALLY good!

My siblings and I grew up eating Tropical Hut, thanks to Lolo Iking who was a fan of the brand. We'd usually get our groceries in Tropical Hut Quezon Avenue, and once we've loaded our groceries in the car, we'd stop by Tropical Hut for an afternoon snack.

Their burgers are legit! You know that they're made fresh and that they're pure beef. Lolo would always order the burger, while my go-to was the chicken sandwich.

Even after Lolo passed, the family still frequented Tropical Hut. My parents and I would have the occasional Tropical Hut run in Greenhills - another sentimental favourite branch. 

Now that the younger audiences are discovering the brand, I'm sure they'll appreciate how good their food is and that they'll be back more often. Because their tagline really tells the truth about Tropical Hut:

"Sarap na babalik-balikan."
