The YEN Burger @ Yen Yakiniku

 


Time for some atas food in Singapore during this suffocating Phase 2 Heightend Alert (P2HA). Famous for their heavenly charcoal grilled beef, we took away from Yen Yakiniku their YEN burger and let's break it down further.

Introduced by a friend, we gave Yen Yakiniku's YEN Burger a try and it simply blew our minds, in various ways.

Firstly, Yen Yakiniku's Instagram featured a lovely and saliva inducing image of their burger invention. However, wrapping of the burger from neatly wrapped pack revealed an awfully squashed burger. We believe this won't be the case if we were served during dine-in. Simpyl frustrating....

Nevertheless, we gave it a go and on the first bite, we were left speechless. Tons of flavour hit our palates all at once.

Nicely grilled fluffy sesame buns with wasabi mayo on the crusty caramalized side. Smokey and chewy bacon nicely grilled, and crunchy swiss brown mushrooms complimenting the bacon texture.

Next were slices of emmental and cheddar cheese slices oozing and holding every ingredients in place.

The star of this out of the world burger was the chargrilled thick juicy smokey wagyu patty. Well caramalized exterior with pinkish interior and juice flowing, happiness and euphoria inducing food just ain't that easy to find.

Finally at the bottom were a variety of greens that were infused with all the smokey juicy goodness of bacon fat, beef juices, and yet still crunchy and refreshing. On the sides were mundane fries which just ain't worth the calories count with what we just had.

Carrying a heavy price tag of $25 for this divine burger creation by Yen Yakiniku, we guess it is worth splurging alittle on amazing food, especially with the quality that we just had.

However, if fast food junkies don't mind forking out $22 for a Godzilla burger or Kong burger, then Yen Yakiniku's burger wins hands down in terms of quality.

Hunan Pork Belly at Xiang Xiang Hunan: Crunchy, Spicy, and Lip-Smacking Good

  You know a dish is that good when you keep coming back for it. And that’s exactly what happened on our third visit to Xiang Xiang Hunan Cuisine 湘香湖南菜 —this time at AMK Hub. We already had high expectations from our past experiences, but once again, their Hunan pork belly blew us away. View this post on Instagram A post shared by YumzYumz.com (@yumzyumzsg) What Makes This Hunan Pork Belly Stand Out? First off, let’s talk about the star of the show: their Hunan stir fry pork , made with a heavenly combo of Iberico pork belly and lean pork. It’s a dish that really brings out the spirit of Hunan cooking—bold, fragrant, slightly spicy, and loaded with green pepper aromatics. The pork belly is wonderfully fatty and tender, with that unmistakable richness that Iberico pork is known for. The lean pork adds a nice balance so it doesn’t get overly unctuous. And then there's the rabbit ear fungus. Yes, rabbit ear fungus—also known as Mu Er or Yunnan black fungus . It...

Seoul Noodle Shop Bishan: Bibim Noodles and More at Junction 8

  If you’re wandering through Bishan’s Junction 8 mall wondering what to eat, Seoul Noodle Shop might just catch your eye. A cozy little restaurant stall tucked in the basement, it promises authentic Korean noodles and hearty comfort food that feels straight out of a Seoul street market. We visited over the weekend for dinner and decided to go big. Two combo sets—Combo A and Combo B—meant we could try six different dishes, including their famous bibim noodles , which definitely deserved the spotlight. View this post on Instagram A post shared by YumzYumz.com (@yumzyumzsg) Bibim Noodles at Seoul Noodle Shop: A Textural Delight The bibim noodles came dressed in a vibrant red sauce that hinted at fire, but turned out to be pleasantly balanced. At $16.50 ala carte (but included in Combo B), it’s a hearty bowl topped with sliced beef, kimchi, and egg garnish , all nestled over freshly made noodles. What stood out immediately was the chewy, spr...
