I went to the one in Sovanna when it opened maybe 2 years ago. It has quite an upmarket look to it for a burger chain, and the "meals" are a little more like Carl's Jr price than Lucky Burger prices. However it is really awful food, they even put the stumps of lettuce in your burger and whoever thought up those sauces should be bludgeoned. It reminds me of BB World but with a nicer fit out for some strange reason. :shock: :? 8-)

:shock: What the fuck are you on about man?!? You'd better tuck your head in if you're referring to highschoolers as 'eye candy'.

Glad someone called him on it.

Unless the poster himself his a high schooler, which I doubt, that was creepy as hell. Mods need to keep an eye on this guy’s posts.

Especially as they often have specials, and you get to look at the eye candy hanging out there from ISPP across the street. Messy burger, but not altogether inedible for $4.

A bit of a walk from the Riverside though. You'd probably have to catch a ride.
It must be quite a few years since you were here as ISPP relocated from Norodom way back. A bit of a walk from the Riverside? Yeah, most places are. Tourist nonsense.

digby steak n grill on street 63, ordered medium rare, the works digby burger (9$), came with fried egg, bacon, cheese, tangy sauce, n fries n veg

the bun was way too soft, collapsed immediately on picking up the burger, patty was fresh but under seasoned, could taste irony sourness of the minced beef, other then that it was ok, nothing to shout about.

return again for burger? most probably not, other dishes maybe

He could be referring to female teachers/admin. I hope.

That is where 95% of the burgers fail in this country. The bun is always way to thick (tall) but also the wrong texture.

You're lucky if they even brown/toast them.
