Of Foods and Travels
I mentioned / shown this photo before in other medium and I guess it’s appropriate to do it over here too. I guess (and strongly do think so) that it is good to leave your mobile devices behind (or put it away) while having breakfast / lunch / dinner with someone whom actually took their time off to dine with you. It’s a matter of respect more than anything else…
I wrote once about my previous trip to The Hand Burger. And since then, I’ve been visiting ’em everytime I’m in Singapore. It’s their burgers that I fell for…
Their soft fluffy homemade burger buns, addictive special mayo and most importantly, the uber delicious burger patty. What’s there not to like about their burgers? Sure… the size of the burger ain’t the biggest. But the quality is there to stamp its mark.
The Works (SGD$11.80) is the burger I would normally go for. It has the whole package to be a good burger. Thick juicy patty, crispy bacons, fresh vegetables such as lettuce and sliced tomato, and sunny side up egg waiting to be burst.
To hold them in place, they use a wooden skewer. Topped with their special mayo, they are then placed on homemade soft fluffy buns. Eating the whole burger possesses a tough challenge but it is totally worth to get messy with it.
With additional charges, you are entitled to a set meal that comes with one of their selected side orders and a drink.
One of their selected side orders is Creamy Mushroom soup (SGD$5.50). Adequately thick, it was alright with good amount of various mushrooms such as shitake and button mushrooms in it.
Another side order their Calamari (SGD$7.80). Unlike any other fried calamari that I’ve eaten, the crispy batter was a mixture of herbs and spices making it rather aromatic and tasty. The squid rings were huge and fresh with a bite to it.
One thing you shouldn’t miss is their Chunky Fries (SGD$4.80). Crispy and tasty, you can literally forget about your carbo diet temporary. It’s worth sacrifice for these thick potato cuts.
There are a few branches in Singapore. I used to go to the one in Raffles City Shopping Complex. But as of late, I’ve been visiting the one in 313@Somerset… with unknown reason. The ambiance is about the same for both of the locations / outlets so as the crowd. Writing this post makes me miss the awesome burger again. Sigh…
