Hundreds pour in for Backyard Grill at Urdaneta | Lifestyle.INQ

OCTOBER 27, 2022

Brightly colored streamers, lanterns, and lights were strewn all over the tents at the first leg of Backyard Grill this year. With a festive Mexican theme, Backyard Grill started big this year at Urdaneta Village with longer hours and even more food and drink options.

Starting at 11 a.m. and running until 9 p.m., homeowners and friends were able to enjoy the offerings of the different concessionaires, like Black Sheep’s chicken satay, Ahi Hawaii’s poke bowls, Sarsa’s batchoy, and Icepops MNL’s various flavors of ice pops. Xancho, Burger Hub, Belly Good Roastbeef, The Wild Range, Nolita’s, THC, Bigg Riggs Shawarma, Billy Bob’s Smokeyard, and Thirsty Turtle got lunch, snacks, and dinner covered for the guests, while John Lemon’s Lemonade Yakult and Primo’s Wagyu’s wagyu sticks were hits throughout the day. Those who already had their fill of food were also treated to a selection of plants and terrariums from Space Garden.

As has been tradition of the Backyard Grill events, a portion of the proceeds will go to charity. Tahanang Walang Hagdanan, Inc., the chosen beneficiary for the Urdaneta leg, also had their own booth where they sold their handcrafted wooden products.

This event was presented by Southern Living magazine and powered by Hinge Inquirer Publications. Special thanks to Pioneer Chemicals, Nestea, and our media partners Scout, Preen.ph, and Inquirer.net.
