Makan with your mutt : Burger Labo

Mutt-chelin Guide : Because good food is a shared obsession

🍔 BurgerLabo - Where the Calories and the Tumeric Stains Are Totally Worth It

Welcome to the Mutt-Chelin Guide, your go-to compass for dog-friendly dining spots that don’t compromise on flavour. Because let’s face it - if we’re stepping out with our furry best friends, the food better be worth the calories and the clean-up.

First up: BurgerLabo, a juicy gem just a short distance from HortPark Southern Ridges.

🐾 The Bite Breakdown

Burger Labo’s got a cult following for good reason : and we’re here to confirm: the 2280 Basic Burger is anything but basic. Think juicy beef patties seared to perfection, layered with umami-packed sauce. The pickled red onions give it the perfect balance - all squished in between a divine bun.

hot tip : "tambah telur" (translated : "add egg") to your 2280 burger

Pair that with their chicken winglets (yes, you’ll be walking away with turmeric-stained fingers, and no regrets), and you’re already winning.

If the malt shake is on the menu, totally order one . It’s like childhood nostalgia with a gourmet twist - it'll send you back to those days where you ate Horlicks straight out from the tin with a spoon, as quickly as you could - before your mum catches you!

And don’t get us started on the shoestring fries - crisp, fluffy, and seasoned just right. Dare we say it? Better than McD’s. We said it. We stand by it.

God is fair and not all restaurants are made perfect. Please note that burger labo does not allow reservations and outdoor seating is limited. There are some seats at the front and back of the restaurant.

🎓 Training Tip: Teach Your Dog to Settle at Restaurants

Dining with your dog is a joy if they know how to chill at the table. Here’s a simple training exercise to build that skill:

• During your walk, stop at a bench

• Leash your dog securely to the bench and sit down for 5 minutes

• Use this time to reply to a message or just scratch that social media itch

• Then, continue your walk

  
  

The mission, should your furry friend choose to accept it?

Effortless "chilling" requires training!

Mastering the art of chilling out like a zen master while you’re parked on your behind, just like they’d need to when you’re waiting for that avocado toast at a café or chatting away on a call.

Once your pooch nails this, you can start sneaking away a few steps to boost their canine confidence. Just remember to stay within their line of sight at first, because no dog likes a disappearing act!

Because let’s be honest - nothing’s more awkward than your dog dragging a patio chair halfway into the restaurant just to ask if they can get an extra side of fries.

And with that, this post kicks off our Mutt-Chelin Guide series - spotlighting restaurants where the food is so good you’d go even without your dog… but the best part is, you don’t have to.
