 Thumbs Up To Nasi Lemak Burger

Nasi Lemak Burger was inspired by local favourite, the juicy chicken thigh patty, a star ingredient of the burger. It's rich in aromatic coconut flavours and coated with cornflakes crunch for an extra crispy finish. 

Delight yourself in the new juicy yet crispy, coconut flavoured chicken thigh patty, coated with cornflake crunch Served between lightly toasted semolina buns, the chicken thigh patty is layered with a golden fried egg, a bed of caramelised onions, crunchy cucumber slices, and paired with a dash of sweet yet spicy sambal sauce for that extra zing. All between lightly toasted roti. Mesti Sedap Gila! 

Excited About My First Bite Of The Delicious Nasi Lemak Burger 

Available for a limited time only starting from 26 April 2018, the locally-inspired Nasi Lemak Burger is set to tantalize one’s taste buds -- The fact, I enjoyed it was because of the generous portion of thick juicy coconut flavoured chicken thigh patty, crunchy on the outside with  cornflake coatings and yet still juicy on the inside.

The sambal sauce was sweet but not spicy enough for me though, but then the fried egg, caramelised onions, refreshing cucumber slices and all nestled in this a chilli infused bun, completed the overall act for a messy get-your-dirty yummy Nasi Lemak Burger.
