The launch of the latest promo product Samurai Beef Burger in Mcdonald struck a cord in my belly when I first got notified via SMS.
I knew I have to try it.
And one couldn't help but to compare it to its famous counterpart, a permanent menu item in Thailand's McD: Samurai Pork Burger.
Order large and it comes with Katsu Curry Shaker Fries.
I have never missed a shaker fries. It's one of the perks (for me) of dining in Mcdonald.
I wasn't so keen on the sakura fizzy drink so I opted for mineral water instead.
The verdict:
Good sizing for a burger, not too big but the usual cheeseburger size, lots of samurai sauce (which sort of resembles more of teriyaki sauce; sweetish, I like it), with an unhealthy dose of mayonnaise on top of the brown sauce, lettuce and very well cooked beef patty - soft, tender and juicy.
This is from the Mont Kiara branch, They do serve very good beef burgers in their outlet here.
The shaker fries is a let down, though. Overly salty, which made me bloat that night. The katsu curry flavor wasn't there and it has a yellow-ish stain like most curry or satay sauce would; which is weird coming from some artificial seasonings. This is the first shaker fries that I actually do not like. :(
I will be back for more of the Samurai Beef Burger alone and here's hoping that McD adds this to their permanent menu item.
