Whew I finally have time to blog again. I’m leaving back to KL tomorrow afternoon. I’ve been staying in hotel rooms for the past one week and I’m really looking forward to going home to my own bed. What a busy trip it has been for me. Worked hard but had some good food though. Speaking of good food, let me tell you about the best burger that My Hello Kitty and I has ever had!
While we were in New York, I was told that our hotel was near the best burger stall in town. So one day we took a walk down Madison Avenue and came to Shake Shack!
We thought we were early, arriving some time at 11am or so but by the time I got there the queue was already building up. So being Asian and Kiasu and all, I asked My Hello Kitty to go jom a place while I stood in the queue playing Doodle Jump.
Man I waited for like 30 minutes and when I finally placed my order I had to wait some more with this buzzer thing.
Once it vibrates I would know my burgers were ready and I could go collect it.
That 2nd part of the wait took like 10-15 minutes until my little gadget started vibrating like a… well.. a vibrator. I went to collect it and brought it back to my patient Hello Kitty who was just sitting down watching some performance in front of her.
When she looked at the burger, saliva dropped from her lips.
The burger was a lot smaller than we thought but when we took the bite, we both floated up 5 feet in the air and then came back down again. It was AWESOME! I don’t know how to explain it. The bun was soft, the beef … just really high quality and the vegetables that came with it was all really fresh. Kinda made me realize that sometimes less is more.
My Hello Kitty loved it too and that’s an achievement! She doesn’t normally like to eat anything other than Sushi, especially burgers! But she loved this one.
We loved it so much that we made a trip back the next day, lined up for another 45 minutes and got ourselves more burgers.
It was sooo good.
Someone should bring the franchise of Shake Shack over to KL. It is one of the smallest, but definitely the best burger I have ever had!
