Bongo Burgers. You must have been thinking where this place is. Frankly speaking, I myself have no idea that there is a fast food outlet called Bongo Burgers until today. I went to the Jurong Bird Park this morning. I have not been there since my primary school days. I have no recollections of how the bird park looked like. It was 9 plus and the only food we saw was Bongo Burgers. We have decided to have Bongo Burgers when we were turning into the carpark. They had a banner which showed that a set of Turkey Ham and Cheese sandwich with a cuppa of tea/coffee, costing only $2.50. It was a good deal.
The place didn't look like any of the fast food chains we see in shopping centres. It was like some cafe. Stone tables and chairs....
African style setting. Spears and arrows. The word 'Bongo' was already very African. Bongo is a kind of drum which was a common music instrument used by the South Africans. The staffs were dressed like hunters.
Turkey Ham and Cheese Sandwich Set @$2.50 Buttered on the exterior. Melting cheese and slice ham in the sandwich. The cheese they have used was quite salty. With the butter on the exterior, it was overall quite oily. But it was a good deal. Together with a cuppa coffee/tea, the set cost only $2.50. It was enough to fill the stomach before embarking on the bird trail.
Hashbrowns @$2.90Hot and crispy. Glad that it was not soggy. Freshly prepared. I must say 4 hashbrowns at $2.90 was not expensive at all.
Sausage Set @$6.90This set came with a cuppa of coffee/tea. I must say the $2.50 a set was a better deal. The difference being the scrambled egg and sausages. It was not exceptionally good but a fulfilling breakfast.
I must say some planning must come into place when it comes to eating wisely. Wise on the price. We ordered 2 sets of the $2.50 set and a sausage set. Breakfast for the 5 of us. Total bill was a mere $14.80. If we were to order 5 sets on the menu, it would have cost us $34.50. Doubled the price.
