Tucked in the neighbourhood of Pandan Gardens is this restaurant that is known for their ribs. Chancing upon this Ministry Burger ($13.90, includes one side dish) was like hitting the jackpot if you are into burgers. Buns aside, the patty was just delicious and the fried onions above it added crunch and flavour to the meal. I guess the owner just wanted to look at my awkward face when I had to open my mouth wide just to fit the burger in.
Located at the bottom of a HDB neighborhood hawker centre, Ministry of Ribs boasts a bountiful selection of western delights, ranging from steaks, burgers, poultry, spaghetti, burgers, and of course - as their name would suggest - ribs.
This time though I zoom in on the burger which is a cheaper option for a cash-strapped student like me. They have a special burger called the Ministry Burger that includes a fried onion ring but what's featured here is their good 'ol Beef Burger. At $7.90 this meal comes with two baked buns, the standard burger condiments of lettuce and tomatoes, and a beef patty that you can tell is freshly made and cooked to perfection - slightly charred on the outside with a brownish pink interior that melts in your mouth, bursting with flavour. Definitely a place to recommend on its own, or if you're around the area and Wah Chee is too crowded :p
