Another discovery! And it’s an easily accessible venue for affordable pork burgers! :yahoo:
The aunty manning the stall is very friendly. Can’t say the same for the Indian/Myanmar/whatever dude who was frying the patty. Quite an arrogant fella.
Anyway, I saw this stall last Thursday while I was scavenging for food at SS2 Wai Sik Kai (food street). It was closed then as half of the stalls here closed alternatively on Tues & Thurs.
Intrigued, I made it a point to come here as soon as I could just for the pork burger. Sunday night was the lucky night 😉
At first glance, the burger looked like any other Ramly burgers. To be fair, it’s priced as such too.
A generic bun was used yes, but it was fresh and soft, unlike the cheaper ones where it’s all crumbly & dry. I’m happy with the condiments & vegetables that came with it. Substantial amount of tomatoes, lettuce & caramelized onions (yea!). Nowadays, Ramlys are just topped with shreds of raw cabbage & some fresh onions right?
The patty is thin. For a small eater, one burger might suffice but for any male, you will need 2 burgers at least. Or you could ask for double patties! Texture wise, it was moist & juicy. I do not think it’s fair to complain further for its price, considering that RM4.80 includes a whole fried egg.
I’m pretty happy with the burger & I’m looking forward to trying the lamb & chicken one soon! I wish that I was able to interview the aunty, but she was very busy so I didn’t. I’d think that the patties are homemade but I hope to ascertain that assumption soon. Another thing to note is I did find the patty a bit salty (it could be that I have low sodium tolerance) but even UnkaLeong agreed it was “a bit”.
Pork burger with egg
RM4.80
Stall 24, SS2 Wai Sik Kai, PJ.
Closed on Thursdays.
Same price as a big Mac (or cheaper, rite) but looks healthier and more satisfying and wholesome! And since we both love eggs… Heheh!
Cheaper than a Big Mac and the patty more satisfying too! 😉
Yes yes, great tht they included an egg. I wouldn’t mind paying to add additional patty to make it more substantial!
why lah need to mention race… nowadays 1MALAYSIA.. hahaha… okay, i’m full of crap, i know… somehow i prefer my burger made of beef… heh
Hehe.. I was tryin to describe him maaa…
U prefer beef?? But I find beef burgers generally drier?
wah i wanna try this! :yahoo:
Let’s go! 😉
The meat looks lean! Something I will eat for sure!
What? U like your meat lean? So do u go “Pun fei sau” whn ordering char siu ?

another good discovery….. thanks my sons will love it.
I know! ;p
But you might need to buy them each 3 burgers!
I just had this last week! Yea I found the patty a tad salty and quite thin. But for the price, I guess can’t complain much.
Haha. Agreed.
long time din go to ss2 wai sik kai after moved out from PJ….my old food place for 20 yrs…very nice food in this food mall
Most are edible yes 😉
my bro working at wai sek gai as a “chef” 🙂 Must ask ask him about this :yes:
Serious??
haha.. ask him abt tht surly cook!
this looks really good. but yea the patty do look kinda thin. :p
Yes! thicker patty but RM1 higher is ok no?
hey. i saw this stall but i had already ordered something else that night. pork burger was definitely calling out. :p i agree that the patty do look rather thin from the photos but going to give it a go one of these days… :p
It is a bit thin..may not even taste it with all that veg & bun, good fr a light snack tho.
Perhaps a slight increase of price with equivalent increase of thickness will help!
I much prefer the lamb burger we had this morning *burps*
Same here.
Though cheaper than the average gourmet burgers, esp the porky ones (aside from Nambawan, that one’s about RM6.90), this one looks kinda lacking.
Maybe the bun, or maybe the thin patty of pork.

wat time the stall open ah? tz!

Alright. tx:)
I tried the crispy chicken burger. It taste similarly to McDonald’s Spicy Chicken McDeluxe minus the spicy. It was delicious and the fresh onions used give it a slight twist. All these for only RM 3.80, I’ll give it a 4.5/5 😉
