Falafel Burger

$12.00 ยท 1 Review

From The Wired Monkey at Dunlop Street; a new cafe that serves up specialty coffee and other cafe grub as well โ€” the current menu consists of only two burgers, a single toast and salad. Sides and pastries are also available as well.

I am pretty much a fan of chickpeas and falafel so this burger pretty much caught my attention when I was skimming through the menu. This reminds me of middle eastern food; really liked that smooth, mushy chickpea patty that is all crisp with its fried, crusted exterior โ€” it comes with nibs of corn for some texture too. The entire burger was flavoursome; the combination of the Falafel Patty, the Tzatziki, Kale and Tomato Compote was everything tangy, zippy and savoury, while the buns were pretty light and fluffy. The sweet potato fries are well-seasoned with salt while sweet inside; pretty crisp though turns a little hard if left alone for a while. A steal at $12 โ€” the portion is actually pretty substantial; definitely leaves one full after wiping out the entire portion.
