Being generally picky with burgers, it's really so difficult to find a place which serves a perfect burger for me -it must be chockfull of vegetables, have a tangy yet savoury + tasty sauce, the chicken must be juicy and marinated and the bun cannot be soggy -Oh, and did I mention? PICKLES.Any self-respecting burger fan will HAVE to try Burger Bar by Fatboy's! Located conveniently at far east plaza, it's one of the more accessible fatboy's.

Any self-respecting burger fan will HAVE to try Burger Bar by Fatboy's! Located conveniently at far east plaza, it's one of the more accessible fatboy's. The shop is really small though, probably no more than a 15 seater, and you'd have to share seats. The benches are black, with really adorable doodle-drawings on the wall. Ordering is via the iPad, where you get to customise your burger, from the sauces, sides and vegetables you'd like.
I chose the Wholemeal bun, with a chicken filling, lettuce, tomato, pickles, a chipotle sauce, and a side of fries + a drink($10.90 in total, after the 50c upgrade of sauce and the upgrade to a meal). They boast that they have the BEST fries, and really, I don't see why not.
The chicken is really juicy (REALLY, JUICY) and the flavour just bursts in your mouth when you take a bite. I like the wholemeal bun as it's more textured compared to a normal sesame one. The chipotle is more high on flavour as compared to a honey mustard dressing that I tried previously (honey mustard is also runnier :/ causing my burger wrapping to drip that flavoursome goodness!)
The fries are really fantastic! It's a fluffy, potato texture, with the outside fried crisp and golden. You can choose to add on a sauce for 50c, but I'm perfectly fine with Tabasco. What I like was that the fries were very lightly salted, just the way that I like it. It's also a sizeable portion, ^ (as you can see from the photo they really pile the paper bowl up!!)Service is also awesome! The staff is really helpful in the ordering and processing of the payments. i'll definitely go back again for the great food! Pity that the space is so small, I'd have liked to chill out more than worry about the other patrons waiting to take over my seat. Yikes.
I recommend the chicken burger (WAY better than the beef!!!) and do yourself a favour, GET THE FRIES! You can worry about the calories later.
