Ordinary Burger - Not Ordinary at all


I am guessing the burger is named Ordinary because the owners are expecting us to refute that with titles such as mine when we write about it.

Its lineup of burgers is not definitely not ordinary, ranging from buttermilk chicken, ebi prawn to portobello mushroom and impossible burger (a plant-based burger that tastes like real beef burger). I like it that they have veggie options to cater to different tastes.

I had passed by the outlet at Ang Mo Kio several times, and I like the look of the burgers and the concept of the burgers being freshly handmade. But it is only until now that I decide to give it a try. And portobello mushroom burger wins me over. The meaty flavour of portobello mushroom plus the stretchy mozzarella cheese and special sauce yield a very flavourful burger that is full of that smokey aroma I like. This veggie burger does not lose to meat-based burgers in any way. My only issue is that the centre of the mushroom, where the stem was, is harder than the rest of the mushroom, making it more challenging to chew off.



Another vegetarian option, Impossible Burger is impossibly good! Super juicy “meat” slathered with tasty, slightly spicy sauce is definitely a winner. This is most probably my favourite burger of all burgers of all brands.

Ebi burger is very good too due to the generous amount of prawns stuffed into the patty. If one has craving for prawn burger, this is the place to satisfy that craving.

Actually, I am not into fast food at all. But somehow, I always end up getting an Ordinary Burger when I go to Ang Mo Kio. The burgers are definitely worth a try since they are different from their counterparts in other fast food restaurants.

My Thoughts: Worth a try, and is a must try for burger fans. And is my favourite burger joint.

Snacky & Crisps


Jin Ho Jiak ar! Okay, this is the first thought that comes into my mind when I pop a piece of super crispy potato chip, laden with local flavours, into my mouth. Using only natural ingredients like prawns and seasonings such as the rich, creamy coconut powder, laksa leaves, curry powder, garlic powder and more, this snack is a winner on the taste department. To add on to the awesomeness of this snack, there are fried, crispy tau pok, commonly known as fried beancurd skin, to give a varied texture.

I highly recommend this snack. Definitely worth a try. And it makes great gifts for foreign friends, provided they can take the spiciness, since it is like laksa packed in a bag, showcasing the flavours of Singapore.

Country of Orgin: Singapore!

Yeo Ice-cream


This British ice-cream is like frozen cloud. The texture is ethereal, being light and airy. The taste is decadently sweet, and the salted caramel adds the nutty flavour and punch. Best of all, it is made with organic ingredients.
