Dinner @ Botak Jones
Honestly, i was somewhat disappointed.
Having read rave reviews of the food at Botak Jones, SK, Daniel and i headed down to their outlet at Bedok to sample the fare.
SK ordered the chilli dogs while Daniel tried the fish burger. I took the botak burger since the menu suggested it.
Wrong move.
The patties turned out dry and salty. If there was any consolation at all, the buns were tasty but no matter how tasty it was, it couldn’t mask the fact that the meat wasn’t well-marinated.
Daniel and SK had it better although i’m glad they helped me finish off my burger otherwise, it would have been a wasted S$11 double patty burger.
I won’t write them off just yet but they really need to either change the cook or the recipe.
Or the menu because it was sorely misrepresented to me.
Haiya should have asked me first!
I tried that botak jones, seriously it’s not very nice, the only thing ’special’ about them is the portion.
I don’t know where you got your reviews, but all my friends who tried Botak(and me) says it’s just normal normal.
Wanna eat nice Western food go Astons Express, also at bedok, near to the Library.

I can’t eat beef, so can’t really try their trademark dishes. But the pork chops was quite powderful.
