Mother's Cook at Ciladak Town Square
The restaurant has everything you would think a good burger place needs. It looks like a real American Diner, with a long counter, car seat booths, 1950's wall decor, and food in little baskets (although these days they tend to be made from plastic in the US) ...
So you would expect to get a juicy burger right?
Well, not here. The meat is a bit too plasticy and I suspect them to use convenience patties. Living in a muslim country there are only a view havens where one can indulge in sinful bacon hedonism, and this isn't one of them. If you have to eat here, avoid the facon (I don't know what it is made of, but it isn't a substitute that belongs on a burger). As you can see in the picture, the cheese isn't molten the way it should be. Five seconds under the salamander is enough to bring out all the flavors a cheeseburger should have. It is the mix of the cheesy fats and the meaty fats together that turns it into a magical symphony for the obese.
Probably the best thing about the place are the onion rings... Indonesians know how to fry things... call it prejudice but it's true. Enakan di goreng dong :)
