4/5 Young K. 2 years ago on Google
I
can't
say
I
expected
much
from
a
Burger
joint
in
botanic
garden
because
at
this
point
I
just
feel
allergic
to
expensive
burgers,
but
this
really
changed
the
game
for
me.
The
burger
(we
got
the
bacon
cheese
and
mushroom
cheese)
is
a
bar
style
burger.
Thick,
juicy,
nice
crust
on
the
outside,
buns
toasted,
cheese
melted,
and
the
caramelized
onions
are
significantly
better
than
most
of
the
other
caramelized
onions
I've
had
in
the
past
*Side
note:
for
whatever
reason,
gourmet
burger
joints
typically
can't
resist
the
urge
to
turn
caramelized
onions
into
some
weird
sweet-sour
paste
with
no
resemblance
to
the
initial
ingredient
and
I've
honestly
always
hated
it
when
they
did
that*
So
yeah
I'm
really
passionate
about
caramelized
onions
that
taste
like
onion.
Would
recommend
the
bacon
burger
13/10.
The
sourdough-mushroom
soup
combo
looks
unassuming,
but
really
just
blew
me
out
of
the
water.
this
sourdough
slice
is
the
perfect
thickness,
perfectly
buttered,
perfectly
toasted.
The
soup
is
rich,
thick,
creamy
and
everything
you
can
ask
of
a
mushroom
soup.
All
the
basics
are
checked,
and
the
flavor
pushes
it
from
"good"
to
"excellent"
The
only
thing
I
won't
recommend
is
the
onion
ring
side.
Underwhelming
at
best,
and
the
coating
is
so
tough
it
separates
to
form
a
separate
ring
from
the
onion.
I'd
assume
they
didn't
bother
removing
the
inner
membrane
of
the
onion
before
battering
and
frying.
A
thick
dough-type
batter
also
doesn't
work
in
this
application.
Onion
rings
isn't
a
dish
that
needs
innovation,
a
simple
tempura
batter
would've
been
perfect.
A
tempura
coat
would
even
lend
itself
to
better
dipping
sauce
retention.
The
one
redeeming
point
is
the
curry
dipping
sauce,
but
I
don't
order
onion
rings
for
the
sauce.
This
dish
in
this
restaurant
confuses
me,
because
up
to
this
point
I
assumed
that
they
understand
getting
the
basics
down
is
far
more
important
than
doing
something
fancy
and
weird.
That's
what
they
did
for
their
soup
and
burgers.
Supermarket
onion
rings
taste
better
than
this.
If
not
for
the
onion
rings,
I'd
give
this
place
a
9/10
and
just
bump
it
to
5
stars.
If
they
improve
on
this,
I'd
really
love
it
