Carl’s Jr

I was craving for a burger today and it’s dinner so my preference is the least carbo the better. solution: low-​carb thick burger from Carl’s junior. my burger was served wrapped in lettuce instead of buns! albeit $ 9.50 for a burger but it’s totally worth it. juicy patty and fresh cripsy veggies inside and out. i was a satisfied customer.

I know most people come here for the burgers, but I really like their beef chili cheese fries! Even better if it’s changed to criss-​cut fries (you can request for that) and with tons of (free) salsa piled on. A nice big serving of crisp and nicely-​fried carbs with just the right amount of flavorful minced beef and a generous topping of cheese, complemented by the tartness of the salsa. A sinful but fulfilling meal (:

I can’t believe that nobody has reviewed Carl’s Jr yet. I guess it’s because everybody thinks that this is a chain burger patty that doesn’t deserve a special mention, or is beneath Unilocaling about.
Hey, Carl’s Jr. was the first to come up with the idea of gentrifying the utility burger. I’m not sure how many readers will remember the The Six Dollar burger, but this was Carl’s Jr’s attempt at a gourmet version of their utility burger. This was supposed to be a decadent burger that had ingredients that would appeal to adults only. This concept mirrored what Toyota was doing with the introduction of Lexus, where a customer base with brand loyalty and more disposable income was provided a luxury version of a familiar product.
Of all the chain burgers, this is the best one. Also, of all the burger chains, this is the only one in Singapore that has the guts to offer free refills on soda!
The Thickburger is the foundation patty upon which all these luxe burgers are built with condiments such as guacamole to set these burgers apart as burgers for «Adults Only». Truth be told, this is an impressive utility patty, no nondescript gray disc of meat-​like substance this, it actually has meaty crags and enough substance for this to be discernible as having been fashioned from the ground meat of a steer or cow.
Managed expectations, we adults learn, is the path to happiness. Dining at Carl’s Jr is no different. Expect this to be a chain serving utility burgers and you will be pleasantly surprised. Expect a creation of the Minetta Tavern and likely wind up sitting in sackcloth and ashes, weeping and gnashing your teeth.
Did I mention there are free refills on soda?
