Five Guys Review: Queue-Worthy Juicy Cheeseburgers And Peanut Bacon Milkshake At Plaza Singapura

Hailing from America, this famous burger joint has been the talk of the town since news broke out in July 2019 . You can expect your feed to be flooded with their massive burgers from 16 December 2019 onwards, as the fast-food chain opens its doors to public.

Food at Five Guys $15 for a Cheeseburger at a fast-food joint is crazy, let alone a burger with no accompanying fries or drinks. It was easy to take one bite after another, only pausing to revel in the deliciousness of it all.

Each burger comes with up to 15 toppings, featuring Five Guys’ standard “All The Way” being mayo, lettuce, pickles, tomatoes, ketchup, mustard, grilled onions, and grilled mushrooms. I decided to add Jalapeno peppers and A.1. steak sauce to pump up the flavours of the burger. For instance, instead of just one or two measly pickles, Five Guys actually laid out five pickles on the burger to ensure you get a zing with every bite.

Bacon in burgers is always a good idea, so I went for the Bacon Cheeseburger ($17) . The build is the same as the Cheeseburger, except there are slices of crisp applewood-smoked bacon added in.

I decided to just go “All The Way” for this burger to savour the “real deal”. Similar to the Cheeseburger, I was floored by the taste and softness of the burger. At Five Guys, it felt like I was slicing butter, as the knife gracefully slid through the burger with minimal effort.

We tried the Grilled Cheese ($8) sandwich, and topped it up with grilled onions and mushrooms, green peppers, and jalapeno. The green peppers complemented the cheesiness with its sharp bite, while the mushrooms provided a hint of meatiness to it.

There is no such thing as a set meal here and you will have to shell out at least another $7 for a small Five Guys Style or Cajun fries . I suggest you share the fries with a friend and get either the regular ($9) or large ($11) portion.

Reason being, after Five Guys has filled up your cup of fries, they will pour in an additional batch of fries into the paper bag that carries your food so you will actually have more than enough. Yet strangely enough, we were in love with the Five Guys Shake ($10) concoction of peanut butter, salted caramel, and crushed bacon.

You are then invited to rip open your bag to act as a placemat and indulge in your burger. That said, $15 for a fast-food burger is a bit much, and even a single-patty hamburger here will set you back $11.
