Burger haters, avert your eyes: Another teen-targeting joint has invaded burger-besieged Subang, bringing more meaty mischief to this thriving neighborhood.
Big Chomp Burger (no relation to Big Hug Burger nearby) opened this week on one of SS15's busiest streets; what sets this place apart (marginally, at least) is its use of stuffed omelets to top the patties.
For example, this Eddgra (RM15 nett) comes not only with cheese & caramelized onions but also a slice of Spanish omelet that's packed with potatoes.
Flossy Chick (RM13), featuring grilled chicken breast & omelet filled with chicken floss.
Fatty Shroom (RM15): Deep-fried portobello mushroom, button mushrooms & parmesan omelet. All in all, these signature burgers are worth trying, though some of the components might not complement each other as harmoniously as hoped for. Also, the flavors feel a bit muted & the texture cries out for creamier ingredients.
Not into omelets? No worries, order something else here, like the Chomp B+ (RM16), which comes with beef bacon (& theoretically, hash brown & cream cheese). Big Chomp's beef patties are satisfyingly big & chunky, but a bit more dense than juicy.
Our favorite's the Flaming O (RM14), pretty tasty with battered chicken, salami, pepperoni & pimento peppers. Could be even better with thigh meat instead of breast.
Plenty of chili in this burger for a pleasant zing. Here's wishing Big Chomp all the best; there are some nice ideas here, & we trust they'll be fine-tuned in the months ahead.
Big Chomp's burgers might take 30 minutes to make after orders are placed, so hop next door while waiting; Big Chomp is right beside Cham Bagel, run by a Gambian who spent many years baking bagels in New York.
Warmed up on order, this poppy-seed bagel with cream cheese boasts a real baked-fresh feel. Other bagel varieties here include honey wheat, cinnamon, garlic & oatmeal, all of which can be stuffed with the likes of peanut butter, scrambled eggs & chicken salad.
