Peter Nguyen (ZestyLemons) Decadent Croquettes & Shakes
Beyond burgers, the venue serves indulgent thickshakes, waffles, and oozy crumbed mac 'n' cheese croquettes.
Never before have I seen the cheese so oozy (it must be a cheese sauce?), the mac soft and suitably sized, and the outside crumbed and crunchy.

Burger Rd Special
I ordered the Burger Rd Special, and it was one of the tastiest chicken burgers I've had in a long time. The lemon and herb chicken was incredibly flavorful, perfectly seasoned, juicy, and cooked just right.
Paris meet and greet
i really reccomend the meet and greet! Chicken and beef patty in one!
Sim W Plain Jane burger
All of that changed the moment I bit into Burger Road's Plain Jane burger for the first time. The deceptively airy bun, the seasoning and juiciness of the patty, the cheese and the lettuce all blended to create an exquisite harmony of textures of flavours that managed to topple that high bar.
Zach Tan sheriff's burger
I tried the sheriff's burger straight off the menu without add-ons. Usually only a fan of smashed patties these 150g patties were juicy, flavoursome and cooked perfectly pink. The addition of chilli cheese kransky and truffle mayo definitely made me a fan.
