Had a tasting event and tried these few dishes and will give individual dishes review:1) Black Ebi BurgerThis is a very interesting burger as the bun is charcoal black and is due to it being seasoned with squid ink. The deep fried Ebi patty is very crispy and thick and it is a good meat to veg ratio. The prawn in the patty is really succulent and pairs super well with the soft sweet bun. The sauces are likely to be a peppery mayo and squid ink garlic aioli. All in all a very good Jap themed burg
1) Black Ebi Burger
This is a very interesting burger as the bun is charcoal black and is due to it being seasoned with squid ink. The deep fried Ebi patty is very crispy and thick and it is a good meat to veg ratio. The prawn in the patty is really succulent and pairs super well with the soft sweet bun. The sauces are likely to be a peppery mayo and squid ink garlic aioli.
All in all a very good Jap themed burger. (Comes with a good amount of fries - sweet paprika, pepper and salt seasoned)
2) Truffled Mushroom Burger
Easily my favourite dish of the night. Abundant Aragula/rocket leaves and mushrooms (well-seasoned) on top of a thick beef patty. The truffle and truffle oil really lifts the burger to more refined taste level and the garlic aioli really helps to tie in the whole burger (the earthy umami mushroom and truffle taste with the sweetness of the aioli and bun and the peppery Aragula). And to add a richness to the burger, it is topped with gruyre cheese (melts over the burger just oh so nicely).
(Comes with a good amount of fries - sweet paprika, pepper and salt seasoned)
3) Southern Style fried Chicken
This fried chicken is to die for. It is chicken thigh pieces (no bone and the skin oh my!) fried to perfection. It is super tender and crispy at the same time. It was a good portion of about 8-10 pieces and the sauce accompanying, the maple syrup, really tied into the Southern Style and made me wish there were waffles also! (hahah I am greedy)
One of the best fried chicken I ever had (likely due to the well fried buttermilk batter coating)
4) Sriracha Glazed Fried Chicken
Same as the fried chicken above but topped with adundant amount of Sriracha. Whoever prefers spicy to go with their fried chicken should order this. (my personal taste tends to lean towards sweet that's why I prefer the above chicken)
The spice level is mild and will not blow your head off. Goes really well with beer.
5) Curry Fries
Thick cut fries with strong curry taste and topped with deep fried curry leaves, which gives a good flavour kick. The fries are fragant and well balanced in taste. And the fries are really abundant (can share amongst 3 guys over a beer).
6) Sichuan Fries
Unfortunately the least favourite dish of the night. The sichuan peppercorn aftertaste really numbs the tongue and coupled with the sour after taste, the dish just did not do for me. Novel but not my thing.
7) Chilli Cheese Fries
Abundant amount of beef chilli, good topping of sour cream and scallions on top adds a different flavour dimension. One note, you have to eat this quickly or the fries will start to be soggy due to the beef chilli topping (especially if you want to retain the beautiful crisp that Wildfire Burgers does with their fries).

Other Info. :
All in all, it was an amazing tasting experience and the food was amazing. I feel the chef coming out to introduce his dishes and answer any queries was a nice touch.
If you are looking for familiar American bold dishes cooked with Asian flair, Wildfire Burgers will not disappoint and I highly recommend this place. And the location is just perfect, you have the feel of dining Alfresco but it is sheltered and so windy and for Singapore's weather, this is an absolute plus plus plus.
