Burgs is Back After Two Years Rethinking, Redesigning a New Look and New Menu
Expect Bigger, Bolder and Better Burgers with new flavours and with the same value-for-money prices that don’t break the bank.
Floyd Cowan popped into Burgs in the Arab Street area to try their rejuvenated menu in their new location.
(Singapore, May 2025) Burgs, the pioneers of halal gourmet burgers at wallet friendly prices, is back with a bang, now bigger, bolder and more delicious than ever. Get ready for a brand-new look and taste at a restaurant located in the heart of Singapore’s heritage district at 16 Bussorah Street, near the corner of Baghdad Street, in the Arab Street area. You may know Burgs from its locations in a number of malls throughout the island. Their new incarnation is in a stand alone shop in the bustling neighbourhood.
Invited for a tasting, it was my first visit to Burgs, new or old, and I made the mistake of showing up on my own. The tasting menu is a lot for two people, much less one. Their tag line is: It’s time to go Burgs or go home.” Agreed, when I went home from Burgs I was very full. And I had a Burgs bag to go.
A new logo of passionate red welcomes all with the same promise it has delivered since its founding in 2017 – serving up local twists to classic flavours, between two buns. You can, once again, bite into Burgs’ offerings of burgers, nuggets, sides and more. Get ready for juicy patties and beefy goodness, all proudly made in Singapore.
Burgs is back flipping patties after a two-year hiatus. In a two-storey shophouse that can comfortably seat up to 100 Burgs fans, new and loyal, soak up the colourful storied journey of Singapore. If you go up the stairs for a second story seat, take a moment to check out the photos along the wall. They are of their outlets from their first incarnation.
Back Bolder and Better
Owners Muhd Shah Indra Jasni and Mohd Ridzuan Ayob told me that though the menu still focuses on burgers, there is more on offer and the burgers are improved. They’ve added a new signature burger sauce, a precious puree of caramelized onions laced with the fragrance of chicken skin. A touch of spice also enters the equation with homemade pickled green chilies, a localised take on the punchy relish made with local green chilli instead of the dime-a-dozen jalapeño.
While there have been changes, some things have been carried over. All ingredients that make up a Burgs burger continues to be made in-house with prime ingredients. The burgers come sandwiched between brioche buns that are baked fresh daily using Danish butter and slow-proofed for extra flavour.
Essential to the signature of Burgs burgers are its beef patties, made from 100% hand–pound pure beef and composed of the golden ratio of 80% lean meat and 20% fat before grilled to perfect smoky perfection. This ensures juicy patties with a good bite balanced with ideal juiciness.
Starting with the burger, that met expectations, I began to wonder what I would do with the Chicken Burger, the six Nuggies (succulent and not over-cooked to dryness), the Signature Fries with more Nuggies. I had already started on the intriguing Homemade Black Lemonade while the Fresh Mango Sorbet and Banana and Peanut Butter Pie awaited my attention.
I had plan. Eat the beef burger, take a bite or two of the Chicken Burger and then delve into the fries and Nuggies. Everyone has a plan until they get hit in the face with Burgs Chicken Burger. It was so good I ate the whole thing!
Chicken cutlets and fish filets are pure meat, battered in-house and served with fresh vegetables and house-made sauces whipped up by the chef’s own recipe.
For a taste of classic cheeseburgers, The Original is stacked with beef patty, sig sauce, American cheese and pickled green chilies. It delivers the taste you expect from a classic burger. The Bae Con adds crispy turkey bacon into the mix, crowning a burger of beef patty, American cheese and homemade barbecue sauce.
For crispy chicken burgers, the Big Bird sandwiches crispy fried chicken between two homemade brioche buns and layers it with iceberg lettuce for more crunch. Bite into fish burgers with the Fish & Chips that serve up battered fish with iceberg lettuce, American cheese and smoked tartar sauce between homemade buns.
When it comes to sides, Burgs’ Nuggies are derived from real chicken chunks, flavoured in two variants, Original or Spicy Seaweed. Opt for accompanying sauces like Ranch, Spicy Nacho Cheese, Curry or Spicy Kicap Manis. They are perfect with add-ons like Fries, Burgs’ Sig Fries and Onion Rings. All sauces and dips are also made in-house for a fully authentic Burgs experience.
Thirst quenchers are highlighted by the Homemade Black Lemonade, a refreshing lemonade drink tinted a mysterious black with charcoal. Finish on a sweet note with desserts such as Banana and Peanut Butter Pie a delightful sweet and salty crispy roll. Try the fruitier tropical delight of Fresh Mango Sorbet.
Burgs’ burgers may be thought of as for the everyman but the ingredients, technique and thought that go into them are carefully refined to gourmet standards for top notch burgers at unbeatable value–for–money prices.
