McRice Burger

IMG_9256.JPG IMG_9255.JPG

This is a Beef Supreme McRice Burger, a beef patty with lettuce and sauce between two patties of molded sticky rice rather than the usual bread bun. It’s apparently been a big hit at Asian McDonald’s outlets, though my friends here in Manila say the P100 price tag for a meal is a bit steep. Coming from the land of $7 lunches, I say $2 is great for a McRice Burger with fries and soda, even at Filipino serving sizes. I’m certain a good part of the price goes to that unique packaging, a pull-and-peel tab affair which makes it possible to eat the rice sandwich without getting the fingers all sticky. McRice Burger, B+ score! (It would get an A if it were just bigger, but again, Filipino serving sizes.)

    Not bad, isn’t it? The sauce is yummy. Mike says the Chicken McRice is better than the beef, though I’ve only tasted the beef one.

    I prefer the McRice Chicken without the mayo. Try it. Tastes like a fried chicken-meal-to-go.
