5 Layers of Beef Burger @ Wendy's Pepper Stacker Media Launch, Jaya One

Thank you Wendy's for the media invite. I almost ran late for it as I was caught with a meeting earlier on.

Well then, what's this Pepper Stacker is all about?

Pepper Stacker - Only RM4.99!

Basically you customize the
burger up to 5 stacks from the original 2 stacks.

Pepper Stacker - Stack it up!

Well, since I'm "kiasu" enough, I stacked it to 5 stacks!

After the media briefing, we were given an exclusive tour to the kitchen of Wendy's. Due to some of their secret recipes, we were not allowed to take any photographs of it.

We were shown the process of cooking the Pepper Stacker burger. Each single beef patty was cooked by a "chef" and then dipped into the thick pepper sauce. They were using the square flat pan to cook it, similar to those at Ramli burger stalls. I wonder whether did they hire the "chef" off those stalls.

After the short brief tour, I could wait anymore for my Pepper Stackers with 5 beef patties! I named it as Pepper Stacker 5 stacks!

Checked out the size of this! Generously with lots of hot pepper sauce!

Its kinda sloppy as there's 5 stacks of beef patties. You have been warned!

I know its a bit gross but you can easily the 5 layers of beef patties.

Someone asked me whether was it juicy or not? The answer was yes. The beef was tender and as each single beef patty was dipped into the pepper sauce, it was very juicy and hot. Ya, almost for the sauteed onions as well. Anyways, I loved it!

This is my first time I had a 5 layers of beef burger. I'm proud of it!

Wendy's RM 6.99 Pack Review

* HALAL

Thank you Wendy's for invited me to taste their new RM 6.99 Menu.

w-5

I started with their RM 6.99 Spicy Fried Chicken with 3 nuggets and a soft drink. Chicken used here is not frozen, fresh I was told. The fried chicken was not too bad. I was surprised actually, I mean for a fried chicken from Wendy's, its better than expected. Nuggets were okay.

w-7

I side ordered a Chocolate Frosty. Its not too bad, slightly sweet thick chocolate flavor. This goes well with kids.

w-6

Fries were okay. Nothing much. What would you expect from french fries?

w-8

Then, the other RM 6.99 set. The Cheeseburger came with 3 nuggets and soft drink in a set.

w-9

One thing for sure. The burger really came with a big huge piece of cheese! Size of the burger is slightly small, yet I would say many burgers lately has shrunk.

w-10

Well, the new menu is decent. However, I would prefer ordering their prawn burger. Loved it!

Fried Chicken And Seafood @ Popeyes, Louisiana Kitchen

* HALAL

Popeyes is here! Not the spinach eating Popeye the sailor man! I'm talking about the Popeyes, Louisiana Kitchen.I passed by TTDI a few days ago and spotted this. Out of curiosity and the kiasu-ness like many other common Malaysians, I went in to try it out.

Basically they served fried stuffs such as fried chicken and seafood. Of course they had burgers, which they named it sandwich.

Andy ordered 3 pieces Tender Chicken with biscuit. Chicken strips were fried into lightly brownish colour. The taste well a bit of saltiness and a bit of dryness.

I ordered 2 Pcs Chicken Set with Mashed Potatoes, Coleslaw, Biscuit and a soft drink. I ordered one piece of Mild Fried Chicken mixed with 1 Hot Fried Chicken. Okay, seriously I couldn't differentiate the mild and the hot one. The fried chicken here was a bit dry. A distinctive taste of a bit of saltiness in the aroma of the chicken. Very least oil detected. It was crispy and hot. The mashed potatoes came with chilli gravy. A slight taste of hotness but it was good. Coleslaw was ordinary. The biscuit was very dry, the taste was in between of muffin and biscuit. There's a word for it, a food blogger told me a few days ago. I forgot the word.

Even though this place is a self service restaurant, there were lots of waiters. I had no idea why. The service was not too bad, they got a bit of mixed up, maybe the outlet is still too new. Price is comparable with other similar fast food outlets.

I would come back for the sandwich. The chickens were not really impressive BUT its a WORTH to try.

I had this in TTDI, Taman Tun Dr. Ismail. Same row with Secret Recipe.

New Packagings @ A&W Restaurants

* HALAL

A&W's first store in Asia Pacific opened at Kuala Lumpur's Batu Road (now known as Jalan Tuanku Abdul Rahman) in 1963. It was also the first fast food corporation from the United States to set foot in the country.- WikiPedia.com

Little did I know A&W had such deep history in Malaysia. All I knew is my parents loved to bring us to A&W for their never ending love for their A&W Root Beer. Sometimes, I would see a bottle or 2 of A&W Root Beers at my parent's home. Well, the love passed from one generation to another.

Lately, I revisited A&W again, even though its fast food outlet, it doesn't mean I need to be there all the time right? I realized a bit of change, the packaging. The root beer remained the same....

Checked out the new A&W burger wrapper. Looks very high-tech?

Eventually it will comes handy. Its like a burger wallet where you can hold the burger properly without spilling the contents of the burger. In this case... the Mozza Burger, one of my favourites fast food burger.

Their lovely curly fries...
And their new "sesame" nuggets.

There's 2 favourite outlets I frequently visits. One in Cheras Leisure Mall which has history backed to old Chujitsu in the 80s and the other one would be the one opposite Amcorp Mall in PJ.

One more thing I felt that we Malaysians should be proud of, A&W is no longer available in Singapore since 2003. :P
