The Handburger @ Raffles City

Who says food porn isn't good for you?

The Handburger at Raffles City has always been a favourite among shoppers, filled to the brim especially during peak hours. It takes forever to get a seat unless you're patient or like me, you decide to go early to beat the 'traffic'. I remember there were very few patrons during the time I visited, around half the restaurant was occupied then. The queue buster: Indulge by 630. 

My sister ordered the set, which came with a choice of appetizer. Most places would simply offer the usual mushroom soup as their so called 'Soup of the Day', but not here. You get a fresh variety of soups to spoil your taste buds, ranging from the Corny Chicken Soup (pictured previously) to the Pumpkin and Crab Bisque. Exotic, eh?

Anyways, sister wanted a beef burger, and the waitress recommended the Original. 

Well whenever you're in doubt, always go for the Original, folks. Works for us everytime.

And lo and behold, my Portobello Mushroom Burger. Move aside, Delicious. Here's the read deal. Look at the size of that gloriously delightful mushroom 'patty'! One slice into it and you're in mushroom heaven. No kidding. Filled with lots and lots spinach (enough to compete with Popeye), walnuts, parmesan cheese and tofu bits, it's so tasty you forget that it's vegetarian. And that's the amazing effect of the humble portobello mushroom.
