Passed the designated location (Bee Fatt restaurant facing Uptown itself) as provided by burbabe more than 3 times and each time left disappointed wondering whether I got the details correct.
Finally, since DH had some late night banking to do, I asked DH to detour to check out whether the stall was open. YES IT WAS and not only that, we got a park right in front too (which is rare for Uptown on a Friday night!!). So if you want a taste, come by after 9.30pm otherwise, leave wondering and empty as I did! Ha ha ha
Abang 'butterflies' his meat patties into two so that it cooks faster.While waiting patiently for my ramli, some observations of Abang John:
1. He is very meticulous.
2. He knows a lot of people or rather a lot of people know him as he is constantly greeting people as they pass by.
3. A real expert in cooking the egg. First he will make a small crack on the egg and then allowing the egg to dribble out as he draws a circle in a smooth continuous manner on the hot fryer like a pancake. Then he will place a meat patty on top and quickly proceed to fold each side very carefully and neatly.
Neat isn't it?
Stretch and yawn, the ‘curious cat’ is certainly well fed and satisfied. Till next year perhaps or longer, until the ramli yearn awakens again.
Which is better??? Perhaps I am just overwhelmed by the slop that I can’t really tell which taste better – er, all seems same to me. Just that some has more green vegetables than others. For Abang John’s, was pleasantly surprised to find a slice of tomato hidden at the bottom of my burger.
IMHO, generally the ramli burger taste is just too overwhelmed by the copious amount of sauce (combination of chilli, tomato and mayonnaise) that it’s difficult to really enjoy the real taste of the burger!! Similarly with the additional ‘secret’ seasonings added by the cook onto the meat while cooking. But if looks counts for how it tastes, then I suppose Abang John's burger is definitely ‘tasty'!!!
