Burger chain Shake Shack to open its fourth outlet, this time in Suntec City SINGAPORE - New York burger chain Shake Shack is continuing its expansion here with a fourth outlet, in Suntec City Mall. It will be located on the ground floor in the West Wing near the convention centre. The hoardings were unveiled on Monday (Aug 24) and featured murals by Ripple Root, the artist moniker of Singaporeans Liquan Liew and Estella Ng. Their colourful paintings showcase bougainvilleas, triangular motifs representing the Suntec architecture and splashes of water inspired by its Fountain of Wealth. There is no official date for the opening yet, but the chain said in a statement that it is aiming for this autumn. Shake Shack has three other outlets, which are in Jewel Changi Airport, Neil Road and Liat Towers in Orchard Road. https://www.straitstimes.com/lifestyle/food/burger-chain-shake-shack-to-open-its-fourth-outlet-this-time-in-suntec-city wow, they already have 3 outlets in SG ? may try the SG Exclusive pandan shake one day ...... should be sweet-die-me one.

Still want to eat Mac? The bloody food never decays........... https://sg.yahoo.com/news/chosen-bun-decade-old-burgers-decay-livestreamed-iceland-142423835.html A decade after McDonald's shut down in Iceland, thousands of online users follow the live slow decay of the last order -- a seemingly indestructible burger with a side of fries protected in a glass case like a precious gem. The American chain closed its only three branches in Iceland during the subarctic island's financial crisis in 2009, making it one of the only Western countries without a McDonald's. On October 31 of that year, just before the restaurant's closure, Hjortur Smarason bought a menu for conservation. "I decided to buy a last meal for its historical value since McDonald's were closing down," Smarason, who works as a communications manager for a company specialising in space tourism, told AFP on Wednesday. "I had heard that McDonald's never decomposed so I just wanted to see if it was true or not." He first kept the meal in his garage but then lent it to the National Museum of Iceland, after which it was moved to a hotel in the capital Reykjavik for a while. Now the burger is on display like a work of art inside a glass case at Snotra House, a hostel in Thykkvibaer in southern Iceland. "People from around the world... come here just to visit the burger," Sigurdur Gylfason, the owner of the establishment, told AFP. The hotel claims it receives up to 400,000 hits daily. Addressing claims that its burgers appeared immune to decay, the company said in 2013 that "in the right environment, our burgers, like most other foods, could decompose," adding that "specifically moisture" was necessary. So with sufficient desiccation, they were "unlikely to grow mould or bacteria or decompose." Bjorn Adalbjornsson, a senior lecturer at the University of Iceland's faculty of food science, confirmed this to AFP on Thursday, explaining that without moisture, "food will simply dry out".

Malaysia man in a car has burger snatched out of his hand by motorcyclist & pillion rider A fitness trainer in Malaysia had his burger stolen from him from right under his nose by real life Hamburglars. Beh Kok Hooi was driving home along a highway in Selangor on Monday evening, Oct. 14 when a pair of thieves on a motorcycle snatched his burger right out of his hand — while he was in the car. Possibly baffled, hungry and shocked at the same time, he turned to Facebook to air his grievances. His post has since been shared some 6,300 times. Online commenters were as indignant on his behalf as they were bemused. Stuck in jam Beh recounted his experience in an interview with China Press. The 36-year-old said he got stuck in a traffic jam after he went out to run an errand for his wife. He then pulled out his Ramly burger he had bought and began to consume it. He had his phone in his left hand and the burger in his right. At that time, the car windows was down. From takeaway to taken away He then suddenly felt a shove against his right hand. The next moment, his burger had disappeared. Beh was left holding a sauce-covered wrapper. His first reaction was that he thought he had dropped the burger. He looked around for it as he was concerned the burger would have dirtied his car door. But by the time it dawned upon him that his burger had been taken for a ride, it was too late to give chase to the snatch thieves. He said while laughing and crying: “If you wanted a burger, I could have just treated you!” Nothing he can do He has since been unable to do anything else to locate his lost burger or hunt down the perpetrators as his car was not installed with a camera. He did not take note of the motorcycle’s licence plate number or the thieves’ faces. But Beh revealed that someone else had also been a victim of a snatch theft case about two years ago. That earlier incident took place along the same road but the thieves stole a phone then.

Popular burger joint Five Guys rumoured to be opening in Singapore Sources: https://www.timeout.com/singapore/news/popular-burger-joint-five-guys-rumoured-to-be-opening-in-singapore-051419 With rumours flying that popular burger joint from Virginia Five Guys is about to open in Singapore late this year, the local food scene has been set abuzz. If confirmed, this will only be the chain's second outlet in Asia. The first was opened in Hong Kong last year to much fanfare and snaking queues. We can expect more of the same in Singapore if the waiting times for Shake Shack are any indication. The cult-favourite American brand is renowned for its huge and messy signature double beef patty burgers wrapped in foil, fresh cut crispy fries drenched in peanut oil and milkshakes so thick you can eat them with a spoon. Toppings for burgers are free (a magic word for most Singaporeans), with options like grilled onions, jalapeño peppers, relish and more – anyone can appreciate a burger with all the works. Vegetarians also have options like the veggie sandwiches, which come without a patty. Instead, they include grilled mushrooms and any other toppings you desire. Shake Shack, Burger & Lobster, and now Five Guys? We wait patiently with extra serviettes.

Went to BK for the first time in many years and saw the price displayed for the "value" meal price is the upsized price. Also, there is no value meal with normal sized fries and drink when I asked. Maybe I am suaku, but just to share for awareness.

Anyone tried it yet? Have mixed reviews from friends.

Anyone tried yet?

http://sg.news.yahoo.com/long-queue-kaw-kaw-042003731.html Kuala Lumpur (The Star/ANN) - Would you wait three hours just to buy a burger from a roadside stall? Many customers are willing to take a number and queue that long just to get a taste of the famous grilled burgers offered at the Kaw Kaw Burger Bakar roadside stall in Wangsa Maju. Loyal customers do not mind waiting for the chicken and beef burgers.

I have succumb to their marketing, and tried it just now. Not bad. the fillet is not as big as the bun as shown on TV, but at least real prawn inside. crunchy too.

share with folks here my very happy and entertaining experience..... Was driving pass CCK Central area and realized that there was a group of people holding up signs and was in a celebrating mood. 1st sign that says " Honk for free meal". So i stopped and a lady actually gave a burger along with some brochures through the window, and all this while the group was singing away and urging you to honk more. So i did. In the end i have 2 burgers when i made a U turn back unintentionally. This form of ad i find it particularly effective and above all, i was well entertained and shared with my family and all. Thank You Nando's for your chicken and veggie burger. They taste good.

Well, if you like burgers as I do, you might find this scrumptious... http://pornburger.me Its SFW if you are wondering.....

I'll be posting food stuffs from my trip here, first off, 3 burger joints i hit while in Tokyo. Prease like my FB page, i still haven't got enough hits to get sponsorship from La Senza. https://www.facebook.com/pages/Garage36/263822652100 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Original high res link: https://garage36.wordpress.com/2015/01/22/tokyo-food-otaku-the-great-tokyo-tri-burger-experiment/ Granted, I’m no food critic, nor a bonafide epicurean specialist. But i do enjoy some good eats every now and then. Good eats, good meats and especially a good burger. Having some of the best places to eat, i reckon it’s pretty hard to find a chow-down place in Tokyo that will disappoint, but when feeds of a certain Burger joint kept creeping up on my Facebook feed and subsequent Googling brought up some mad reviews. (Here, here and here) And with a food blog championing as the “Best in the World“, i knew i had to make a trip down. Truth be told, i didn’t exactly plan to hit 3 separate Burger joints during my short stay in Tokyo. Blacows was the pretty much the only one on my itinerary’s hit list. The 3rd Burger happened to just be there when i was hungry (haven’t had anything to eat the entire day prior) and i chomped down at The Great Burger because it was near the awesome Airbnb apartment i was staying at. But of course, I’m not complaining. All 3 Burger restaurants were fantastic in their own way they all added some wonderful flavor to my holiday. Getting things started, here’s The 3rd burger. It was on my first night in Tokyo when i stumbled upon this place in Roppongi. Like every bumbling tourist, i headed out the wrong exit in the train station but faced with a very inviting Burger cafe, i think i made a right mistake. They also have a main shop in Omotesando for those interested. Catering to the more health-conscientious-ish set, The 3rd Burger presents itself as a more “healthy alternative” to the regular sandwiches we are more accustomed to. According to Timeout, “The patties are minced from fresh meat (no freezing allowed), the buns are free from additives and preservatives, and each burger comes laden with organic veg.” It all sounds pretty good, they even serve smoothies with meals. But of course at that point in time, i had no idea what this place was about, it just looked like they served some pretty good burgers and there was a screen broadcasting how they made those yummy patties. I was not disappointed. I had the Marinated Burdock Burger and coupled it with fries and a beer. All in, it was about ¥1,400. Pretty good value if you hail from Singapore, the land of expensive. The burger was good and the sauce had a nice tangy bite. With lots of those organic veggies stuffed between two buns and a patty, it made for a very tasty meal. Especially when i swapped out my smoothie for a biru. In a nutshell, it’s like Freshness Burger, only fresher, and more tasty with a fantastic variation of Burgers in the menu. The fries were nothing to shout (especially without some hot sauce) about but they usually play supporting roles when it comes to burgers anyway, no biggie there. Now onto the main event, Blacows! I’ve heard some pretty good things about this place so expectations were of course, on the slightly high side. With memories of the previous night’s healthy burger still fresh in my mind i made the trek up to Ebisu straight from Makuhari Messe. My feet were busted from the day’s activities but with images of freshly ground up Japanese black cow wagyu beef floating in front of me, there was no stopping me! (Be damned you little upslope towards the restaurant!) I stepped into the discreet looking joint, was very politely made aware of their last order and closing times (i did reach a bit late) and was presented with their menu. Off the top of my head, i pointed to the Cheeseburger as i wanted to discover what Mr Food Critic had been raving about. (Reference to prices above, still totally reasonable for some top quality chow) Minutes (or maybe 10-15 minutes) later, this hit my table. It looked honest, no fancy accessories to the burger, only some melted cheese, a nice brown caramelized sauce on top and some tar tar sauce sitting beneath the beef patty of destiny. The moment of truth. You know the saying, “never meet your heroes”. Well, that does not apply here. I can’t tell you if it’s the Best in the World or the Best in Tokyo since i’m no “expert” food blogger, but it was pretty good indeed. Not it wasn’t good, it was great, i didn’t really care about the cheese, i didn’t really care about the tasty sauce, what i cared about, was that black cow beef patty. For meat lovers that patty takes total center stage in the midst of 2 buns tasty enough to eat on their own, it was thick, juicy and oozing with some fatty cow flavor. On hindsight, i should have ordered a biru. The last bite before i call it a day and head back to my hotel near Tokyo Station. Blacows was so very worth the trip up and i’ll make it a point to return once again. Maybe next time i’ll try the Big. (Or maybe not) The Great Burger happened to be nearby as i was heading out for lunch on my last day in Tokyo, located smack in Omotesando and just a short walk away from my apartment, it was time for Burger number 3. While The 3rd Burger prides itself on providing a fresh and healthy new-age take on a traditional favorite and Blacows going on the full-on high-quality gourmet route, The Great Burger sticks with the tried and tested formula of an American Diner style, fat juicy sandwich. Bacon, cheese, pineapple, whatever works, just stack it in and serve it up. The decor in this place is definitely casual and friendly. I had a counter seat and got to see my Bacon Cheeseburger being prepared on the griddle. I opted for smaller thin cut fries as a matter of preference, you can choose thicker cuts if you so choose. All in, it was just slightly above ¥1,000 for my set lunch that came with fries and a “home-made” ginger ale. Great value once again and for the quality of food you get, i’d even call it cheap. With nice big thick cuts on bacon slathered on top of the cheesed patty and topped off with a toast bun, it was chow time! On a nice winter afternoon, this sure hits the right spot, with those thick cuts of bacon slices really bringing it home. After washing it all down with a nice glass of Ginger Ale, it was time to hit the shopping trail for a full day before saying to Tokyo once again. So of all 3, which is the best? It really does boil down to how you like your burger. For those who crave the taste of meat and only want the very best cow in their sandwiches, a trip to Blacows is the only place to be, for those who insist the best burgers are American styled burgers, cheese, bacon and all things FREEDOM!, The Great Burger has got your back. And for those who much prefer a more Japanese take on an American favorite, The 3rd Burger might be something you should try. Many people come to Tokyo expecting to eat some top-notch JDM food, which of course can be easily found, but isn’t it a waste if they go all JDM food only and miss out on Japan’s amazing western style eateries. Personally, i think you cannot go wrong with any of these 3 places, they all served up some of the best Burgers i’ve ever had, but if you really want me to pick one, I’ll be tapping my Suica (or Pasmo) once again for the Yamanote line to Ebisu. (Sorry Fergburger, you have really strong competition now)

Burger King

Police have arrested two Filipino men on Thursday for their involvement in two cases of armed robbery at separate Burger King outlets. In the most recent case, the assailants carried out their modus operandi at a International Plaza branch on Wednesday morning. One of the suspects, a 32-year-old, allegedly walked into the fast-food outlet and held a female staff, 61, in a headlock while placing a knife under her throat. The man, whose face was covered with a surgical mask, then demanded that a male staff hand over all the money that was in the safe. The other man, a 30-year-old believed to be his accomplice, waited outside the building. The robbery attempt was thwarted after a third crew member ran out of the outlet and sought help. It was said that the startled robber threw his knife to the ground and fled empty-handed. The staff gave chase but eventually lost sight of him. The Straits Times reported that the suspect left a trail of clues behind, including a bicycle chain, which he intended to use to lock the doors of the outlet
