Zhong Hua Rougamo – Crispy and Flaky “Chinese Burgers”!

When I think about burgers, the first thing that comes to mind would be a Western-style burger. I only learned recently that we can get Chinese-style burgers in Singapore!

Similar to its western counterpart, Chinese-style burgers also feature meats and vegetables sandwiched between two pieces of “bread buns”. Instead of the usual burger buns, these unique burgers use crispy, flaky & golden brown flatbreads!

The first thing that caught my attention at Zhong Hua Rougamo is a grill filled with crispy flatbread. There are several flavours ranging from pork to fish to choose from.

The Pork Rougamo ($4.80) here features braised pork belly which is chopped before placed into the burger. The pork is braised overnight, and carries a lovely aroma and fragrance from the herbs and spices used. The staff also makes every burger upon order, ensuring optimal freshness.

I would liken the flatbread, with its crispy exterior and doughy interior, to a youtiao. It holds the filling well with each bite being substantial and satisfying.

The Chicken Rougamo ($4.80) sees a deep-fried chicken patty slathered with mayonnaise. It is rather simple and resembles your conventional burger making it well-suited for all ages.

Other than Rougamo, there are noodle options available. The Suan La Fen ($5.80) broth is numbingly spicy and moderately tangy with springy sweet potato noodles. My only gripe is that there was not much ingredients other than the occasional peanuts, vegetables and taupok.

If you are in the area and looking to satisfy your craving for some Rougamo, do check this place out!
