FIVE GUYS, an American hamburger restaurant, is reopening a new branch in Hong Kong, making it the 9th branch in Kowloon Tong’s Festival Walk! One of the unique features of FIVE GUYS is its customizable menu, where customers can choose from options like hamburgers, cheeseburgers, and grilled cheese sandwiches as the main filling, and then select 15 toppings for free, including lettuce, sautéed onions, jalapenos, and steak sauce. Think it’s simple to just mix and match? There are actually hidden special ways to enjoy it!
You can request to replace the two slices of bread with lettuce in the “Lettuce Burger”, sandwiching cheese, beef, and various fillings. This low-carb combination is also suitable for ketogenic dieters. Another special way of eating is to invert the burger, flipping the normally crispy side up, which helps maintain a crispy texture when eating.
Of course, when you come here, you have to have some french fries. When the Kwun Tong store opened, it once set a record of selling one thousand regular size french fries in a day. The fries are crispy and flavorful. It turns out that they are hand-cut daily and go through a rigorous starch removal process to ensure the thickness and crispness of the fries. The store also writes down the origin of the potatoes daily, and recently they have been using potatoes from the Netherlands, which are large and have a fragrant potato flavor.
When it comes to drinks, of course you have to try the milkshakes. In the same way, you can choose from ingredients such as strawberries, bananas, caramel, and so on. It is also revealed that next year they will launch the lotus biscoff caramel cookie flavor, which is worth looking forward to!
