Carl’s Jr (Jurong Point)

I had lunch at Carl's Junior at Jurong Point today.. though I'm a west side girl and frequent Jurong Point so very often, it was my first ever visit to this Carl's Jr outlet, mainly because there are much too many restaurants, fast food joints, food outlets and high calorie food to choose from.

It was a great experience. Great because I was served by this really really really cute Caucasian staff, tall, handsome and very polite.... and of course deeee.....licious burgers....

I would say that the location of this joint is like an indoor alfresco styled setting. Why... because you get the natural sunlight from the floor to ceiling glass window, you get to seat by these windows, watch the busy road below, trees swaying in the wind, birds flying blindly into the well polished glass yet.... no sweat from the blazing afternoon sun on the Sunny Island Set in the Sea.... Plenty of well cushioned seats and clean tables. While I was there, I could see that the outlet is understaffed, there is only this cute guy at the counter, the branch manager and another kitchen staff in the kitchen and there is this two other guy dressed in well ironed shirts and pants looking more like area manager or management staffs of the franchise. While lunch hours picks up, this 2 management staff actually helped clean the tables, pack the rubbish, go around collecting trays and greeting customers. I was impressed watching all these happen and humbled as well.... Though understaffed.. I still feel that service is good. My order is served quick enough and the way its prepared is as expected.

Theres this promotion going on, called the S$7.90 combo meal which you can find more info at (http://carlsjr.com.sg/live/promo14.php) and I thought its the best value ever. I ordered the Chili Cheese Burger, which is done mexican style the way I liked it. Beef patty is juicy and the beef chili sauce is seasoned just right, the burger is huge and the combo comes with medium fries and a medium drink cup, I should say good for 2 if you are not a particularly BIG APPETITE diner, you could also upsize it to everything large for an additional S$1. The fries/chips is the best of the fast food chains I ever eaten and they are pretty generous in quantity...

I love the Self-Serve unlimited refill drink booth with free flow of ice tea and slices of lemon. The self-serve condiment is great as well, you get chili sauce, ketchup, salsa and pickles, which is really yummy..... The ingredients are of pretty decent quality and if you haven't tried a Carl's Jr Burger... you must try it.... and I'm sure you will be back for more!!! Stop counting the calories.. Just Burn MORE!!!
