Freshness Burger at NEX

Down in the quiet basement of NEX near Cold Storage lies a pretty big - yet very empty - restaurant called Freshness Burger. I decided to try out their Salsa Beef Burger set at $6.80. It included a small soft drink, wedges (which I thought was fries when I looked at the menu picture) and the beef burger.

Let me start out by saying what I liked about the place. The restaurant looked classier than your average burger joint, it didn't have that fast food restaurant feel to it. I also really liked the variety of sauces on offer from tomato ketchup to mustard to Tabasco sauce to even thai sweet chilli sauce.










Now for the bad. Basically the food. It really didn't taste like what a burger's supposed to taste like. The meat patty was a weird greyish colour (not rich brown) and it was sooo thin and small that they should be ashamed of calling it a beef burger. There was also this bitter taste that I had no idea where it came from...the diced onions or the salsa? The salsa too was poorly done. It tasted just like diced tomatoes and that's all.




The wedges weren't tasty either and I counted there were exactly 6 in the packet.




Perhaps other people might've liked it but it's definitely not to my liking.

POST NOTE: Unsurprisingly, this shop has now closed down.
