Fatburger Review: Giant Four-Patty Burger At This New Burger Chain From LA

Pushing out juicy burgers for close to 70 years, Fatburger has a strong following, many of which are A-list celebrities including Zendaya, Heidi Klum, and Quentin Tarantino. For those who love rap, you would have heard of Fatburger in songs like Ice Cube’s It Was A Good Day , as well as Tupac’s Late Night .

Began trading yesterday at Kinex – formerly known as OneKM Shopping Mall – in Paya Lebar, my colleague and I had the opportunity to try out some of their juicy burgers and buffalo wings! But after my trip to Fatburger, this inner debate was put to rest as their grub proved that fresh is indeed better.

Committed to using only chilled beef patties, their hamburgers were far more superior in taste and texture in comparison to burgers served at regular fast food joints. As such, by only chilling their hamburgers, Fatburger is able to retain the flavourful juices of their Alberta Angus beef chuck patties.

Plus, their burgers boast a proportion of 80% lean meat and 20% fatty bits – the golden ratio for the perfect burger patty. If you really want to go all out, I dare you to add all their toppings – egg , beef bacon , onion rings , and chilli – at $1 each. But if you do finish the entire burger, you will earn a certificate and have your picture up on their wall of fame!

There’s no time limit for this, and you don’t have to beat the previous record too. After falling in love with Black Tap ’s The Texan Burger, I decided to give the Western BBQ ($9.90) a go.

For a fraction of the price, I daresay this makes a good alternative to The Texan Burger if you’re controlling the purse strings. Ladies – and gentlemen – watching their waistline can opt for the Skinnyburger ($7.50) where beef patties replace the buns. Aside from the small portion, the lack of buns as well made the robust taste of the beef too pronounced.

Accommodating to all sorts of chicken lovers, they have a wide variety of chicken including Bone-in wings (from $5.90 for six pieces) , Boneless Chicken (from $8.50 for six pieces) and Chicken Tenders (from $6 .50 for three pieces) . If you can handle the heat, go straight and request for the Death Valley. Ambience at Fatburger Fatburger is located at the left side of Kinex mall, and is only accessible via the walkway outside.

That being told reporters, once you make your order, you don’t have to wait at the counter for your food, as the servers will send your grub to the table. The verdict Whether you’re a fast food junkie or not, you need to visit Fatburger at least once in your lifetime.

For fussy eaters, you will be glad to know that you can customise everything on the menu to however you like it. Whether it’s pickle juice drizzled on your burger, or double-fried fries for extra crispiness, the team at Fatburger promises to go out of their way to give you what you want, when you want it.
