Exclusive to Spize Temasek Club till 1 March, our shore’s first Croburg ($23.90), croissant-burger, comes with a hunky 400 days Grain Fed F1 Australian Wagyu beef patty. Air flown from Melbourne, the premium protein’s seasoning is kept to the minimum with smoke salt and is simply seared over a flat griddle. While thick, the inside of the patty was sufficiently juicy but the main snag was that the meat does fall apart slightly. That aside, the goal of achieving the most buttery textured burger was achieve with the bun. A tad denser than a typical croissant, the rose-shaped bun is made using halal flour and french butter. Looking at the layers of impressive lamination, it promises airy and flaky goodness with a strong dose of buttery fragrance. Sandwiched between are caramelized onions, a lovely sunny side-up, melted cheddar cheese and creamy truffle aioli slathered at the bottom. To complete the meal, the order is complemented by a side of crisp curly fries and a mesclun salad with a robust truffle vinaigrette sprinkled on with crunchy pine nuts.
