[ closed ] QQ: finally found pork burger in Ipoh!

the best pork burger for me is still Ninja Joe (the one in tropicana shopping mall in PJ). probably pork burger is not easy to find, unlike the usual Ramlee version.



in Ipoh, pork burger is even more difficult to locate. forget the usual pork chop burger in those pseudo-hongkies joint such as food&tea or wongkok. those are generic food without authenticity most of the time. and most of time, the food is rather tasteless.

imagine my surprise to find a new stall beside the road not far up from Gunung Rapat Methodist Church. with an electronic board advertising their food, it is named QQ Fast food stall. the menu is in chinese, but manned by 2 burmese gentleman. the usual chicken and fish burger is there, so is fries. u can imagine anything the can be fried is there. plus there was ham and bacon sandwiches, hotdogs. the top 2 food was pork buger (RM2.80) and pork chop burger(RM2. 40). i tried to ask what was the difference between the two, since i would expect the pork chop burger to be more expensive, but the chap just told me " babi" .... i also know -la. took my risk and ordered the pork burger for me and ham sandwich (RM 2.20) for my wife.


lets dissect the food... my pork burger was rather small. they literally squash the bread using a pan cover making the burger even smaller. they claim the patty was self made, though i doubt it. the pork patty was not bad, the consistency was rather firm, just how i like it, though doesnt taste much like pork, because the taste was covered with tomato sauce. yup. they put too much sauce there that the whole burger tasted like bread with tomato sauce. they pick TWO piece of onion, small piece of onion to put inside the burger....so it was rather weird. how bout the sandwich...errrrrr... the same problem, too much tomato sauce so cant even taste the ham as well. then again, it is not really speciality ham so dun think it make any difference.

i laud the effort. i may even come back for the pork chop burger or pork chop set (RM 4.90) but in the mean time, they really need to learn how to make a good burger from the Ramlee counterpart.

ratings: 1.5 poink! (the fact it is pork burger... if not, it will end up in one poink)
comments: taste wise... go for this Ramlee burger stall along the road in Gunung Rapat rather than here. but if u are like me, dying for pork... then wat can i say..
