Hello again, it has been sometime since I've updated. The reason why being, me going back to Penang for bloody assignments and some work presentation. Over at Penang, I've finally tried another burger joint that I failed to do so few months back. However, I will not be posting about that for now as I'll be focusing on a new burger joint that was open for about 3 weeks now.

It all started few days back where me and Pig decided to have burger for supper. In this case, we thought that the only burger that we've not tried around Subang/Sunway was Big Hug Burger. Everyone was telling us to go and try it out, it was good. So yeah.. at last, we went to Big Hug Burger last Thursday, around 10pm, right before our Star Trek movie.

When we arrived, we were greeted by one of the owners (wife) (the 2 owners are husband and wife) saying "Sorry, we're all sold out, everything, including the side dishes". My first reactions was, what in Neptune is this? However, we continue looking at the menu thinking of what we could order the next time. While doing so, the other owner (husband), came and gave his name card to us. We chatted for awhile, talking about the restaurant's menu, quality ingredients, ideas and concept of the place.

The reason why it was named "Big Hug Burger" was simply because they wanted to share the love and passion for good food. Additionally, they wanted customers to feel like they were at home. That was one of the reason why when the second we opened that door, the smell of burgers overflows the atmosphere. It wasn't a bad thing, although I believe a little ventilation would be good. As people say, hugs are free. It doesn't cost even a penny and it is one of the only gestures that could break all barriers between 2 individuals. The owners wanted the customers to have a healthy and wholesome meal as well, much like what you would eat when you're at home. In conclusion, both the owners are dedicated to provide the very best in quality of ingredients, taste and service.

All the ingredients are freshly picked daily. The head chef's (they call him master-chef) family owns an organic farm which produce most of the restaurant's fresh ingredients. The beef is 100% Australian beef, onions imported from Netherlands and sauce made in house. Everything is done from scratch, right in front of your very eyes. Employees and chefs stay till late at night, just to produce enough ingredients for the next day. This includes the marinating on cherry tomatoes, slicing of chicken and preparation of beef patties.

Anywho, since we've failed to eat on Thursday, we told the owner we'll be back next week, after my Penang trip. So here we are again, at Big Hug Burger, just yesterday. The owner promised us that she would provide our food for free, but we really did feel quite guilty accepting it. She insisted and requested that we take it as a blessing. It was a blessing indeed.
