Smashies Burger @ Metro Genting Setapak

Barrack Obama & Will Soh

Do you think we are hit by Burgerlution? It seems that burger chains, stalls or restaurants are mushrooming and spread like wild fire over here. There is a new burger in town two days ago. It is sensational, smashing and obama marking the official start of a Burgerlution. Smashies Burger was officially launched on the 8^th July 2013 by Asia’s very own Barrack Obama. President Obama arrived in presidential style with his limo, bodyguards, secret agents and entourage at Smashies Burger in Metro Genting Setapak, Kuala Lumpur.

Smashies Burgers started by a Malaysian investment banker, Will Soh. He gave up his more than 20 years career in financial industries to pursue his passion for traveling. He discovered the joy and satisfaction of eating a burger when one day he was feeling very hungry and famished in New York. So that is how the Burgerlution started and Smashies Burgers was finally introduced and launched in Malaysia.

Actually the name, Smashies Burger derives from the method their burgers are made by smashing a ball of pure ground beef on a grill, searing in its natural juices to lock the patty’s natural flavours. The unique of the burgers are in colored buns that from natural ingredients.

On that day, the restaurant was quite packed and the staff were busy so I managed to try some of the burgers and side dishes.

Orange bun, chicken single patty, single cheese, egg and hashbrown. Oh my, the chicken patty is well marinated, I can taste the flavours and sweetness of the meat. I have to eat the hashbrown separately because my mouth simply can’t fit in this high, huge and thick burgers.

Shroom Boom RM16.99

Red bun, double fried portobello patties, mozerella + cheddar cheese, tartar sauce. This is something different. The things that makes this burger so creamy and cheese is the mozzarella and cheddar cheese. The Portobello patties are simply crispy on the outside and creamy and soft on the inside. For cheese lovers.

Watch Your Back RM17.99 (Must Try)

Green Bun, single lamb patty and mint sauce. This is for lamb lovers like me. This so smashinh and is my first choice must try. Since I can’t eat beef so lamb would be my first choice, chicken is kind of common. I like the lamb patty, its juicy and not much fat which is good. But I feel that is a little bit salty on certain part of the patty.
