Carl's Jr.

Let the pictures do the talking...

























This is so far the best burger I have enjoyed from a burger chain.
Quality : McD < Wendy's < Carl's Jr.
Price : McD < Wendy's OR Burger King < Carl's Jr.
Conclusion : Price = Quality!

(As the last time I went to Burger King should be some time ago, thus, no direct comparison of quality here.)

I tried the Jalapeno Chicken. The chicken patty is juicy, tender and fresh. Served generously with lettuces, olives slices (I think), it was ok as I don't really enjoy olives that much. Personally, I preferred Charbroiled Chicken Club burger and Charbroiled Santa Fe Chicken burger. Charbroiled Chicken Club burger has chicken bacons in it while the Santa Fe Chicken don't. Comparably, these two burgers tasted nicer than the Jalapeno. The breads are different, they are like the wholemeal bread rather than the normal white ones. The chicken patties wise, they are both juicy and tender. But, I noticed that if the size of a chicken burger is smaller, the bread used would be the wholemeal type. Ya, most likely the bread type earns my vote.

As part of the combo, there is a drink and Fries included. The fries are also very yummy. They are not the typical off-the-shelf thin version fries or the crinkle-cut fries. If you are observant enough (or perhaps you don't need to be observant to notice this), some of the fries still have the skin attached. However, they are soft, crunchy (not too crunchy as that would mean over-fried) and they are served hot!

And the beef burger comes in really hugeeeee size, but not so for some of the chicken burgers. Since I never tasted any beef burgers before, no comment on this.

Another credit to Carl's Jr. is the free flow of drinks and pickles. The drinks are not limited to soft drinks only. There are iced lemon tea and coffee as well. I would certainly want to visit Carl's Jr. again, despite the pricing which costs around RM 20 something for a combo set.
