#6 myBurgerLab @ PJ Seapark


Recently keep heard my fren mention about there is a very Famous "Charcoal bun burger" in PJ Seapark. Decided to check out this famous burger shop with Mr.Simon. myBurgerLab start their business on 5PM, but they are always sold out the burger around 8PM - 9PM. Please come early if you really wanna to have a try of their burger. 




Okay, we reach there around 7pm and as you can see it is CROWDED ! So, the task for Mr.Simon is queue up and I will go and get a seat..hahahaha :) Thx a lovely couple who asking me to wait beside them as they will be ciao soon, lucky :) 

Finally Mr.Simon manage to make the order after queue for 20min, thx hubby  We order a set of A+ Burger it come with a bottomless soft drink and fries, and ala carte of Beautiful Mess v4.0.   



Mr.Simon patiently waiting for his food to arrive.


Beautiful Mess v4.0  
They serve with fried portabella mushroom, sunny side up(egg) & swiss cheese. First time of trying the fried portabella mushroom, it is Amazingggggg !!! It is coated in a light breading and the mushroom are very juicy XD 


A+ Burger 
This burger serve with sharp cheddar, caramalised onions and shiitake & enokie mushroom. This mushroom is different with the portabella mushroom, this is much more like japanese style teppanyaki mushroom. Compare with Beautiful Mess, this burger more juicy then that. 

I personally think that their ventilation system is very bad. From Mr.Simon opinion, the cakes are really so-soBut to be honest, their burger is really worth for a try  Will visit again because I heard my fren said their Spicy Haiwaiian worth for try too.
