17 burgers were tasted and scored. Find out which topped the ranks. Click image to find out.
It’s time of the year – to review the burgers in town and give our ratings on each of the burgers we bought. We ended buying 17 burgers last Monday to review which is the best burger in town. Well, to be fair, this is only based on one burger session and we didn’t try out the rest of the burger stalls and they are tons around Brunei.
The Burger Phenomena started mushrooming a few years ago with the likes of Kapow, Hommed Baga and a few more. So we thought what a fitting way to do a burger taste out session during one of the Sungkai outings.
The burgers we all bought and not sponsored so the reviews aren’t diplomatic and we based the scorings with the criteria given to give the best representation scores for the burgers.
So you want to find out more?? Click here for our rankings of the burgers. We didn’t have an in-depth review of each burger due to time constraints, just to let you know :))
A big thanks to UBD FM, LFHW crew and Brunika for participating in the burger tasting out session. It was fun indeed and thanks to UBD FM for tabulating the scores too.
RVP done deal?
Not many happy Arsenal fans here
RVP.. RVP.. RVP… The chants of Robbie Van Persie will be heard all around Old Trafford. I was shocked to read the headlines at Soccernet as RVP agreed the terms from Manchester United, one of Arsenal’s rivals, in the Premier League.
So which is the biggest shocking transfer to you? Well, let me recall you a few of the shocking transfers in the Premier Leauge and there are in no particular order.
Carlos Tevez – Manchester United to Manchester City 2009 for 25 million pounds
Fernando Torres – Liverpool to Chelsea 2011 for 50 million pounds
Samir Nasri – Arsenal to Manchester City 2011 for 25 million pounds
Juan Sebastian Veron – Manchester United to Chelsea 2003 for 15 million pound
Sol Campbell – Tottenham Hotspurs to Arsenal 2011 free transfer
I’m pretty excited by the prospect of RVP being transferred to Manchester United. They have already acquired the services of Shinji Kagawa from Borussia Dortmund and the Red Devils are not stopping their spending just yet. On the other transfer news, Park Ji-Sung has moved to QPR while Fabio is on loan to QPR.
Liverpool transfer update. They brought in Fabio Borini, a former Chelsea player, and his previous club was AS Roma. Another good buy for Liverpool was Joe Allen from Swansea. It was sad to see Dirk Kuty moved to Fenerbahce. He was such a hardworking player. Maxi Rodrigues was also been released to Newell’s Old Boys while pin up boy Alberto Aquilani has been transferred to Forientina. It remains to be seen how Liverpool will fare this season. I still question the depth of their squad as compared to the likes of Manchester, Chelsea and Manchester City.
Chelsea for the challenge? Gone are Romelu Lukaku (West Brom on loan), Drogba (Shanghai Shenhua) and Salomon Kalou (Lille). However, they are the biggest spender this season as they had high profile names such as Eden Hazard and Oscar. Are they strong enough to challenge for the Premier League? They have proven in Europe they are the best from winning the Champions League but it has been a while that they have lifted the Premier League trophy. All eyes on Chelsea too.
Manchester City to defend title. I remember lots of Manchester United fans said Man City are title pretenders and look what happened. The final 7 seconds of the final match of last season cost Manchester United the bragging rights. Now they are back with more fire power though they haven’t spent as much as their rivals. The only acquisition they got was Jack Rodwell from Everton. Then again, just look at the depth of Manchester City.
I believe the title challenge will be between Manchester United and Manchester City once again. As for Chelsea and Arsenal, they might need to get the ball rolling as they have lost two big players respectively – Didier Drogba and Robbie Van Persie.
Liverpool…. hmmmm… I can’t say much just yet. I’m still not convinced by the squad and the attacking fire power. Andy Carroll hasn’t really settled well in Liverpool colours. Suarez can be the saviour if he behaves well though he will be constantly under pressure from rival fans. It’s too much to ask from one man to save Liverpool’s season. Let’s hope other players shine too and I hope Borini and Joe Allen can lift off the pressure a bit from Suarez who committed to stay in Liverpool.
I can’t wait for the Premier League season and Selamat Hari Raya also to you guys 😀
