Burger King (Parkway Parade)

Who woulda thought, Burger King actually still does decent burgers these days.
-
The fillings between these pillowy corn-dust sourdough buns are generous, with layers of slaw, caramelised onion, tartar sauce, cheese and a tomato slice providing bags of both flavour and texture.
-
Perhaps most surprisingly, the salmon patties are flaky and moist.

I’m not sure if this is only available for a limited time, and I hope its got a permanent spot on the menu, as I’m looking forward to having it again.

Taste: 3.5/5

More curry than rendang in flavour and not a bit too sweet, this version just doesn’t live up to the nostalgia-inflected memory of what I had growing up. I also remember the onions being more finely cut. These big chunks leave a decidedly strong, pungent aftertaste that lingers for a fair while.
