Delicious nasi lemak burger from myBurgerLab @ Sunway - SamsungPay redemption

myBurgerLab was inspired by the success of a few famous burger joint overseas such as ShakeShack (US), In-N-Out (US), Grill’d (Australia) and GBK (UK). They have done it well and invented many kinds of creative burger flavours that is delicious and with quality ingredients. When the food is good, people don't mind to pay slightly premium for it. The nasi lemak burger that I tried has all the necessary ingredients that a good burger should have. I know the burger is oily, messy and huge, but that is what a good burger should have.

Taste:9/10(Delicious. The nasi lemak burger does taste great. The fried chicken were crispy and juicy. Together with crushed anchovies and peanut butter a good combination. The burger not overly spicy and sambal chicken rendang were fragrant from the first bite).
Price:5/10(Near expensive. The nasi lemak burger priced at MYR18.80. Its not cheap for a burger but the ingredients and quality is awesome. I use my SamsungPay 550 points to redeem the burger so free dinner for me).

Porky lunch set at The Barn @ Citta Mall, Ara Damansara

The Barn open its 4th outlet in Citta Mall recently. I think its a good move since Citta Mall lack of drinking and pork eating place. With many high end residences around the area and expatriates, there are demand for such restaurant. Looks like this will be my favourite eating place. On the second day of opening, we try out their executive lunch set. Good ambiance for business lunch and to chill out.

Taste:8/10(Good. I had their bak kut teh. Its not bad for a Western restaurant to serve bak kut teh. The meat is tender and good. Taste wise is good but of course cannot beat Klang bak kut teh. The bak kut teh comes with all the necessary condiments such as garlic and chili padi. I tasted the fries, soup and salad. All good. The soup taste good but just a bit oily. Pork burger and fish & chips are delicious).
Price:6/10(Moderate. The promo lunch set is good deal and comes with free soup and salad. Lunch set from 12.00pm until 3.00pm. Lunch set price from MYR19.00 to MYR25. Steak set lunch price is higher. If you come in group, then you will have a better deal as you will get one lunch set free from 4 lunch set ordered).

Pork burger at Burgertory @ SS15, Subang Jaya

Burgertory is a famous pork burger shop in Subang Jaya. They have a variety of pork burger which includes bacon, grilled pork patty, fried pork belly and char siew. Their famous for their Big Fry Belly which is their tallest burger they ever made with plenty of crispy fried pork belly. Me ordered their pork nest as the big fry belly is too huge for me. During my visit, the place is always filled with people which proved its popularity. The burgers are served with large patties and free flow drink. When I was there, I think I am among the oldest guy as all of them are students. Teenages nowadays really can afford gourmet burger which during my time, Burger King was considered as very expensive already.

Taste:8/10(Good. Their speciality is the pork burger. The patty is juicy and flavourful. creative burger of mixing herbed cream cheese and fried wire potatoes in the burger).
Price:5/10(Near expensive. Their burger is almost double the price of normal chain restaurant burger. It's a gourmet burger. However, their burgers are huge and you get special pork burger which not many restaurant having it. I just took their ala carte pork nest burger at MYR16.50 and free flow of drink at MYR5.50. Prices are GST inclusive).


Burgertory is very popular among the student crowd from the nearby colleges in Subang Jaya. Your clothes will smell of pork/bacon when you leave. They should have a better ventilation to avoid the smell spread from kitchen to dining area.

Waiting for my burger to come. Eat me!

Awesome chicken satay burger from Big Hug Burger @ Subang Square, Subang Jaya

Subang Jaya has been a main spot for gourmet burger shop to open their outlet here. With a high number of college students crowd nearby, the business in these burger shops are very encouraging. One of the burger shop which I went recently is Big Hug located in Subang Square. They have many kinds of special burgers which you can't get it somewhere else such as unagi burger, soft shell crab burger, satay burger and they huge signature chicken XXL burger. They also have pasta as well if you don't like to have burger. First of all, I never been a fan of burgers. The burgers which you get from the fast food outlet are mostly from grounded meat and they mixed with a lot of flavorings and flour. However, the burger from Big Hug is different and change my perception about burger as they are using whole piece of chicken thigh grill as patty for satay burger set. I would say it's a healthier version burger.

Taste:9/10(Delicious. I ordered their satay burger set. The chicken were grilled perfectly without burned parts and not overcooked. The meat was very tender and juicy. The satay sauce is delicious and the burger was sauced up nicely. Since I ordered their set meal, I have free flow of either soft drinks or lime juice and fries or sausage. Their lime juice and sausage were good as well. The sausage is huge, nicely cooked and tender).
Price:5/10(Near expensive. Their burger is almost double the price of normal chain restaurant burger. But you get what you are paying for better chicken which is whole piece of meat without batter, special burgers such as satay burger and the ambience. They have both ala carte for burger and pasta. With combo, you will get free flow of drinks and either fries or sausage. I took their combo satay burger at MYR24.00. If ala carte, its MYR18.00).

Matt's is a local institution in Minneapolis which is famous for their cheese stuffed patty burger named Jucy Lucy. The cheese inside the patty were melted and boiling hot. The server will always warn their customer to let the burger cool down first before eating. I enjoyed the sound system in this restaurant as the quality were so good. The restaurant visited by President Obama before.

Taste:8/10(Good. The molten cheese inside the patty blends well with onion and pepper. Good taste. However, I not quite like the burned part of the patty).
Price:6/10(Moderate. Cash only establishment. Jucy Lucy at USD6.95, half order at USD4.25 and beer at USD4.75).
