I loved the toasted bun which had a nice flavour on its own. The patty looked unimpressive (perhaps frozen/outsourced?) but it still had a good texture and was neither too juicy nor dry. The most enjoyable aspect was the condiments - the strong tomato relish & sauce made for a refreshingly tangy taste and coupled very well with the bacon, lettuce, and mayo for some unique flavors. The large side of shoestring fries were perfectly crispy and very good, making for a satisfying meal overall.

I ordered the CW Bleu Cheese (150g @ $25) which was refreshingly unique in several ways. The bun was soft with embedded raisins which made for a nice taste. The medium rare patty was perfectly cooked with great texture, and while not too juicy or strong went well with the toppings. The grilled onions, crisp bacon, and (very strong tasting) bleu cheese made the burger explode with awesome flavors! At 150g, the size is just nice with the crispy fries and salad. One of my favorite burgers so far!

I tried the Big Boss ($14) which had a juicy pork patty that wasn't too flavorful on its own but went well with the toppings. The bacon and onion rings were crispy and combined with the cheese & veggies for a nice taste, though the egg didn't really stand out in any way. The bun wasn't toasted but had a nice distinctive taste to it, while the fries were cooked perfectly crispy yet tender inside. In all, burger is quite decent - not too sinful nor big - a bit plain, though the value is good.

The Chopped Steak Burger ($38) has a nice and thick patty with good texture, though it got pretty dry after a few bites. The bacon was thick and a bit chewy, combining nicely with the BBQ sauce & melted cheese for a smoky taste with a hint of spice. The bun was well toasted while the egg was perfectly cooked, and the shoestring fries were decent. However, though each individual ingredient was of very high quality, the burger as a whole didn't really impress me, especially given the lofty price.

I had a Wimpy Burger ($15) and despite the name it was still quite a mouthful between the beef patty, bacon, and egg. The patty was cooked nicely (though a bit thin and not quite juicy) and went well with the slightly salty bacon. The sesame seed bun had a nice texture & flavor, however the BBQ sauce was just OK as was the egg. The hearty side of thick, slightly crispy fries was quite mediocre. Overall a good yet average burger, but I'm looking forward to trying the other, more unique options!

I went for the Bacon Marinated Burger ($26) which had a thick, beefy patty that was pretty good but slightly on the tough side. The generous toppings, however, more than made up for it. The bacon was just a tad crispy yet quite tasty, and the best part was by far the awesome grilled onions and especially the melted gorgonzola cheese which added some great flavors to the burger. The bun was toasty yet normal and the fries (+$2 for truffle) were light on the truffle aroma but still pretty nice.

I had the 200g 'Baconcheese' burger ($17.50). The patty isn't exactly thick but it is wide and nicely cooked - good texture, flavor, and while a bit chewy at times, it went well with the condiments. The fresh toppings were great: the bacon was extremely crispy and enjoyable, and the faint taste of BBQ sauce wasn't too faint nor overpowering. The bun is large and normal, as were the just slightly crispy fries. Overall it isn't super special, but it is a well executed burger that'll satisfy you.

The Truff Ryder ($35) initially left me unimpressed with its size and presentation, however that all changed with my first bite. The onion jam and sauces combined to make an incredible flavor unlike anything I've had before. The patty is neither thick nor 'gourmet' but had a great texture and complimented the ingredients well. While the truffle and foie gras were quite subtle they contributed to an overall fantastic taste. A bit on the small side for the price, but I'll definitely have it again.

The Skyve Beef Burger ($25) is exactly what I want in a great gourmet burger. The bun is well toasted yet fluffy making for a lovely texture, with the cheese melted into it. The patty is thick, juicy, and tender, and while not super flavorful on its own is nicely complimented by the slightly crispy and salty bacon. The generous portion of truffle fries was crispy yet soft for a fantastic texture, with a faint truffle aroma which I enjoyed. The meal’s overall serving size is perfect.

I had the Prime Beef w/ Streaky Bacon Burger ($17.95) and really enjoyed the meal. The patty was pretty thick and literally dripping with juice, and while it was a bit chewy the taste and texture were very enjoyable. The cheese was good and the bacon was a nice compliment as always. The truffle mayo, however, pushed the burger from good to great! The potato salad and greens were nothing special, but the burger made up for it. The overall size of the burger is good - not huge but just nice.

The Beef Burger ($18) at Dimbulah Chijmes looked promising at first - perfectly sized, all the right ingredients, and with a healthy serving of fries. Though the bacon was abundant and well cooked, the texture and taste was more fitting to go with eggs than on a burger. The cheese, grilled onions, tomatoes and greens added individual flavors yet didn't come together to make the overall burger better. The patty was fairly thin and uninspiring while the fries were thick yet equally lackluster.

I ordered the Signature Burger ($27) at Prive's Chijmes outlet with high expectations, given the price and listed ingredients. The burger was small-medium in size, and the wagyu beef patty was pretty disappointing - though thick, it was a bit overcooked, slightly tough, and didn't have a distinct flavor nor juciness. The bacon was nice and crispy, however the cheese wasn't melted at all. The fries and greens were ordinary. Overall an incredibly average burger with a hard-to-justify price tag.

The Spanish Hash ($24) at Wild Honey is very photogenic with its unique presentation as well as ingredients. The egg was cooked well with a runny yolk, while the bread was just slightly crispy while remaining quite soft overall. The potatoes and sausage didn't have a very distinctive taste, though I was able to improve the flavor by adding a bit of sea salt. Despite its visual appeal, this dish was exactly as expected - nothing too bold or surprising taste-wise, just a solid eggs benedict.

On my first bite into The Original db Burger ($42) the braised beef stuffing amazed me with its fantastic flavor and texture, complimenting the huge, juicy sirloin patty very well. However, while the foie gras filling contributed a lot to the cost, it's subtlety didn't add much to the taste. The burger is perfectly sized alongside a generous serving of crispy fries, which is appreciated in an upscale joint like this. All in, I think the burger is worth the premium and I'd gladly have it again.

Being a huge truffle fan, I tried out the Truffle Burger ($28) and of course upgraded to truffle fries ($2). The bun was just ok, being soft and non-toasted. The sauteed onions complimented the juicy and nicely cooked patty - which had good texture and flavor - making the burger messy yet fun to eat. The burger is medium-sized, its not food coma-inducing but gets you full enough alongside the fries. Overall a good meal, but wish the burger & fries were more truffle-ly to live up to the name.

Berg's Burger has a lot of interesting options for burger fanatics, though I typically stick with the Miss Piggy (bacon cheeseburger) with fries and a lemonade ($20 NETT). The burgers are large and will fill you up, though as you can see the patties aren't necessarily thick nor juicy. Maybe its just me but something about the meat texture makes it feel a bit rubbery/stringy, but thankfully its not dry nor tough either. Nevertheless, Berg's is a decent choice to satisfy your burger craving.

Omakase Burger is undoubtedly good for a fast-food style outlet - the fresh meat, cheese, lettuce, and bacon work well together to make a distinctive and enjoyable taste, though the burger itself is definitely on the small side. However, add on the cost of fries and a drink to the base $15-20 for the burger you quickly get into gourmet burger territory at $25+ per pax. At that price point, you can get much bigger, juicier, and higher quality burgers from the likes of Suprette or Black Swan.

The mood and setting in The Black Swan is very Great Gatsby-esque (aka awesome) which makes for an ironic yet befitting home for a fantastic gourmet burger. The bun and ingredients are fresh and of high quality while the meat itself is very flavorful and juicy - sink your teeth into it and you'll see why the $30++ price point is justified. The burger as a whole was greatly satisfying, though unfortunately the fries weren't anything special.

The Suprette Burger ($20++) starts with a toasted, buttery bun which immediately grabs your attention with its unique taste. I added bacon ($3) which was thick and generously served, and came topped with a healthy dose of melted gruyere cheese. The beef patty was thick, VERY juicy, and bursting with awesome flavors. The shoestring fries were quite good as a compliment, being just slightly crispy on the outside and soft within.
This is a definite must try for any burger lover in Singapore!

The PS Crispy Onion Burger isn't cheap at $29++. To make up for this, the burger is generously sized and comes with a HUGE portion of shoestring fries on the side (sadly, they aren't truffle fries). The meat is high quality and juicy, but I didn't get any unique taste or awesome flavors from it; the deep fried onion toppings didn't stand out either.
Overall, this is a solid burger that will definitely satisfy your cravings but isn't quite special enough to make it into your food fantasies.
