Food Review: Carl Jr's

Went to Marina Bay for dinner, tried out the new burger joint. Had the double bacon cheeseburger combo.

Fries: Pretty normal. Saving grace was the sauce u get at the self-dispensing containers. Try others besides the usual chilli & ketchup. Be adventurous and u'll be rewarded!

Burger: BIG... like a double whopper... but that's only for the meat portion. Just the right amount, but it was sorely lacking in veggies or sauce... tasted nice and meaty but felt dry. had to use chilli sauce to moisten the dry bread and the hidden onion rings. Fair amount of oil for a burger...

Overall Verdict: Carl Jr's is not bad, but might not last in SG coz
1) burgers might be too big and not appealing to most locals... i understand i may be an exception. of coz, i only tried one burger... but fren & fren's fren tried also... complain dry.
2) it provides FREE FLOW of sauces, serviettes, cutlery, and DRINKS!!! sure lose money in SG!! hahaha

Desert: went to Swensen's! they now having special offer... most of their ala-carte ice creams (except earthquake and the expensive >$10 ones) are $4++!! (not counting service & GST) faster go WHACK!!

Didn't find Carl Jr's that brillant... quite the normal... and not cheap.
