Named the Tonle Burger (meaning river in Khmer), Century 9 Inspired Eatery’s signature cheeseburger pays homage to both American and Khmer culture, a concept central to the restaurant’s fusion philosophy.
Hmmm... I'll give it a shot.. but to be honest, tad expensive. Pricing structure is setup for foreigners with money so their expectations will be high. I for one love growing the domestic consumer base.

I have never ever had a burger from Carl's jr ( or anywhere else) that looked like the picture. For some unknown reason the staff always have to flatten the burgers and make them smaller and unappealing. When I make burgers at home they actually look good, like in the adverts. If I can find some investors I will start a burger joint in PP and call it "Realburgers - just like the picture!"

If we are talking decent burger joints. Have a try of "Burger It & More" on St 278 BKK1. (Think it is opposite Club Love) The Khmer owner (Sinath) has been running it a good couple of years now. Great menu, a wide variety of choices. It's closed on Mondays, but open the rest of the week. Good value and pretty decent burgers.

I'm still trying to find a good burger. I tried Burgershack the other week but the patties just tasted like the rat burgers you stupidly buy drunk off your face on st.51 at 2am, so won't return there. BBJ burgers were just awful with the shittest chips ever shat out onto this planet. I've stopped going to supreme because the burgers/meals got smaller and the price went up, no where near as good as it used to be.
If you enjoy noise pollution and obnoxious driving practices, Phnom Penh is the place for you!

Please try Burger It then, and give us a review. To be fair, I haven't eaten there since June. But it was good, it was fresh and it was tasty. (I will admit, the fries were pretty ropey, and I said so at the time.)

Back in the day (2010ish) Steves Steakhouse was my burger choice. The 6oz cheeseburger was just right, simple & very tasty.

Looks like I gotta try Cousins now.

I came by a new one in BKK1 recently on street 51, Burger Shack, very nice burgers, good range of craft beers if you want to dine in as well, i think they have a place in Kampot as well. Would recommend a visit https://www.facebook.com/BurgershackPP/

Burgershack do pretty good fast food burgers, or at least the one in Kampot does, couldn't speak for their PP gaff.

But, for me, a burger must be flame grilled, juicy, have high quality cheese, no pork or breadcrumb filling in the meat and fresh salad.

That's not an easy combo to find. Luckily I only eat burgers a few times a year unless I'm traveling.

I agree but its all about the patty. Take the best patty in the world & slap on the worst cheese & yes its still fulfilment.

Take the worst patty & slap on the best cheese, no its a no.

Weird thing is take the worst patty & the worst cheese & you'll say 'that tasted so bad I'd like another'.
