  The thick ones are supposedly made with Angus beef. I don't know about the thin ones. I haven't eaten McCrap's in ages and I find Carl's Jr patties very salty - or is that the cheese?

  i tried the burger from fat boys, not too bad, but i wish it could have been bigger though...

  my sis was telling me about this place called smoking frogs also serve quite good burgers.

  Their Thai chicken burger is the highlight. The beef burgers were great when I first tried them 2 years ago, but after a change of owners and a visit Stateside, they're no longer anything to crow about.

  It's in a bar called Bar Bar Black Sheep (Cherry Ave), near Brewerkz/Tessarina condo, and opposite the big field along Bt Timah Road. Beer there is very reasonable but the Thai and Indian dishes are expensive.

  Wendy's have a three-patty burger and each one is a quarter-pounder. No delivery though and no big deal here and in the US tastewise.

  evening.

  TR is getting irritating.. Sprouting all e wats not when it does not even occur in e first place like foreigner causing HDB prices to go up.

  I say those are Singaporeans who think they can take e opportunity to make a tidy profit.

  In any case many thought foreigners can own landed property.. lol

  in other news, kopi's parking ticket issue reminds me how i've to get thru LTA staff.

  it wasn't closed down ...

  I think the fellow balls shrank at being found out, and shut it down himself ....

  no worries .... he'll soon set up something else and host it overseas annonymously.

  I'd like to know how the heck she passed her driver's test. Doesn't one have to demonstrate proficiency in parallel parking during the test?

  yup.. as with most people, they learn to pass the test rather than to gain skills..

  parallel park is usually on the left side...

  i bet this right side parking freaked her out

  Good point about her p/parking on the right side and perhaps not being used to it.

  However, I LOL'd when she gave up and the Civic immediately pulled into her spot in one swift, clean manoeuver.
