100% Fresh Wagyu Burger @ Astons Specialities


Since that unforgettable burger experience at De Burg, i have been yearning for another bite of that huge ass burger that screams of nothing but just awesome goodness!

Well, that has made me more willing to try burgers instead of steaks in western restaurants. And who can resist a poster that indicates a thick, juicy patty, a boldly worded "100% Fresh Wagyu Burger" at a promotional price of only S$9.90!

I could not resist such marketing gimmick and therefore chose this wagyu burger instead of my usual medium-done new york strip in Astons Specialities.

The top bun gave the disappointing impression that i will definitely ingest much more bread than meat for this meal! At least it gave a comforting warmness - a rarity amongst the burgers i had before.

Ahh.. this looked much better! Fresh, brightly coloured vegetables may be well liked by many but for me, they were too raw. Stir-frying them (with onions) should result in a more palatable bite that can well complement the grilled wagyu patty.

Circumference wise, it was pretty big but the bun was way too big for the patty! Bad proportion that is a food mistake right from the start!

The wagyu beef patty was indeed thicker and juicer when compared to a Macdonald's burger.

However, the taste didn't live up to my expectation! Even a whopper from Burger King contains more surprises than this. Sad reality, since i have always been impressed with Astons Specialities offerings.

I should have remained loyal to my steak.
