Think juicy beef burgers and crispy medium cut fries when you visit this casual bistro outside Funan. Their signature Original Wolf Burger ($9.90) features beef patties topped with American cheese and Wolf signature sauce, sandwiched between fluffy steamed baked buns. Burppler Jessica Chew enjoyed the Truffled Mushroom Beef ($10.90), with the "house-made beef patty was juicy and topped with melted Gruyere cheese, the savory flavour mixed well with the sweetness of the caramelised onions. Served on fluffy golden burger buns and with the aroma of truffle oil fusing through, it is 100% quality and 100% satisfying my burger craving without having to break a bank! 🍔👍👍"
