Mos Burger - Singapore

It's been a while since we posted, but hey sometimes we're lazy like that. This summer Jesse went to Singapore on a research trip to visit a colleague and friend. While there, he had a chance to try out the Japanese-based fast-food chain Mos Burger. The Japanese have an interesting take on the burger. There standard Mos Burger comes with mayo (yuck), chili (yum...?), cheese (well Japanese cheese...yuck), and tomato (yum).The burgers are quite small, so naturally as an American he needed to order two. My second burger was the Yukinumi Burger, which consisted of teriyaki beef and vegetables served in between two rice patties.


Standard Mos Burger - not so great, basically a hot mess; Yukinumi Burger - totally awesome.

Jesse's good friend Kim Huat Goh ordered the Unagi Burger, which is another rice patty burger with sautéed eel and seaweed. The Unagi burger came with a little warning sticker that read "Soft Bones Within Unagi".



The fries were your standard fast-food chain thick-cut fries; nothing much to see here. Overall, Jesse thought Mos Burger wasn't a bad place for lunch, but recommends staying away from their version of the standard burger. Instead try the asian rice patty burgers for a little more adventure and a lot more good eats.


Burger Round-Up
Mos Burger: 1.5/5
Yukinumi Burger: 4/5 (lost a point since it's not really a burger)
