i have that foto up so we all know what tis entry is all about. i dragged him to geylang a few hours after buka so that i can satisfy my craving for the burger.

i wonder if this thing has a cult following...until recently there was no need for advertising, the yumminess of it all spread by word of mouth..even my chinese friends had been egging me to go geylang to get a bite of it...and sometime ago, with the meat restriction (is it already legal now?), some poor guy was jailed for smuggling in the beef . such length to get our beloved 'just taste even MUCH better' burger.

i am not sure what is the lure that i can ignore the artery choking soaked in margarine patty, the fact that i am not too sure which part of the cow i am chewing into. but nevermind..all the fat makes it even extra gooooooooood..

this isnt going to be the first and last online tribute to this delicacy. but this is my contribution..last night, we waited patiently in line for our specials.

this was how they were done.




sorry, no picts of the finished goods here coz that will be baaad. bulan puasa. oh, yah, as always, no personal picts of us devouring them either.


to make up for it, here's some stuffs you can chew on:

* BURGER Ramly started out as a small family business operated from a mobile kiosk on Lorong Haji Hussin in Kuala Lumpur in 1979.The special family recipe was cooked up by Mr Ramly Moknin, then 27. It soon became a hit among Malaysians.

The family has set up several processing factories since then. And they have a website!
