On Location!!! - Kuching - Fish Burger @ Sugarbun, Satok

Ladies and gentlemen, we think we have found the best fish burger!! A friend was talking about his childhood and how he loved it when his parents brought him to Sugarbun to have a meal. He said that he would always order the fish burger. So, as the Makan Kings, we just had to go find out how good it was. This particular branch of Sugarbun was in Satok.



The set (picture above) comes with one soft drink (root beer in this case). Doesnt look particularly interesting but its the content that counts right??





The fish burger was wrapped in a paper bag. Upon tearing the paper bag, we found the fish burger wrapped in another layer of grease proof paper. This fish burger is long. Unlike the square variety that another fast food outlet offers. (Hint: Blue wrapper and golden arches)



On first bite, the fish burger was amazing!! The fish fillet used was similar to those used for cheaper fish and chips. The fillet was deep fried to perfection. The flaky fish fillet tasted very good and had a welcomed peppery taste to it as well.
Instead of your normal tartar sauce or mayonnaise, they used coleslaw instead. The coleslaw used was not your normal coleslaw in that the vegetables were minced up finely. A refreshingly good idea!! The burger also had the mandatory cucumber slices but was surprised to find that there was no tomato slices. The bun used also was good!! Soft and warm!!
This fish burger is so good that there is no need to add chilli or tomato sauce to it. It is perfect just on its own!!

Makan Kings ratings = 8.5 out of 10

The sugarbun in ss2 closed down before I could even try them. Looks like the only other place is the one in Jln Bukit Bintang.

Penang has other good food that more than makes up the lack of certain types of food!!

I just went to Jalan Bukit Bintang yesterday and it looks like that Sugarbun outlet has also closed down. I guess the food just did not take off with the locals.

boo,

Aww. That is too bad. The fish burger is really quite good. Cant say anything about the other stuff on offer as we have not tried anything else there.
