The first time I went to the Offshore Club at Loyang, I had fish and chips together with a rack of lamb. This time, I decided to go for something simpler - or so I thought! Their humble burger was an immense open faced edition and it was simply amazing.
The patty was a hefty 180g hand mixed minced beef with garlic and spices affair the taste is more spectacular than he looks. The egg yolk was a wonderfully runny egg surrounded by the lovingly pan fried egg white. My salad came drizzled with the loveliest balsamic vinegar and dazzled with the sweetness of the cherry tomatoes. My only gripe is the the gherkins were not as tart as how they normally are, as many locals had complained that they were too tart, so the chef soaked the pickled gherkins to remove the tartness.
Oh Oh Oh Oh So Awesome! Look at the texture of my burger! The best way to taste a burger is without the distraction of sauces, so you can revel in the meaty beef of the patty! I also enjoyed their buns, which were big enough to stay crisp and toasty throughout the meal, and I eat really slowly.

I can wax lyrical about the patty, but I'm going to get direct to it - it's meaty, tasty and worth the to and fro cab fare ( for me! ) of $45.00! It's thick enough so you are able to even specify how you want the patty done - well done, medium well or medium.
The steak cut fries are worth highlighting as well, the were crisp from start to end, together with the burger buns which are toasted in the oven to get the crisp, crusty sides and softer center that supports the burger patty beautifully.
The secret of their juicy patty? Fresh mince which is not frozen and patties which are made fresh and kept chilled instead of frozen. You can taste the quality of their Australian or New Zealand minced beef and almost dance with delight at finding such an awesome, HUGE burger! I did a jig, a kind of celebration dance, because I had found the best burger in Loyang, and to me, in the east of Singapore as well! Look at how big and fresh their patties are!

I was so full by the time I finished the patty that I almost couldn't eat anymore. Almost...
But the cheese cake looked too good to pass up, so I had the Espresso Cheese Cake $8.90 that is placed deliciously on a chocolate espresso painting of sorts with a lovely cherry balancing precariously on a huge scoop of ice cream. The espresso shot that was mixed in the chocolate paint made my cheese cake taste like a Tiramisu! YUMMY! After the cake, I finally rolled my way home after the great security guys at the entrance helped me call a cab! |
