Whenever we think about fast food, the image of pan fried burger patties oozing with oil come to mind. While they are often delicious, the more health conscious bunch might not embrace fast food with open arms….. unless it is grilled instead!

Burger King is one of the very few fast food joints that serves burgers you can eat without feeling too guilty. In fact, it is the only quick service restaurant that serves grilled burgers, and one of my lunch stops every once in a while ever since they opened up the branch at KLCC.

A couple days ago I went over to take advantage of  the BK Grilled Chicken promo. The new kid in town is the BK Black Pepper grilled chicken, while the BBQ Beefacon & Mushroom grilled chicken are included in the promo too – when you go large, you get a free sundae.

My colleague Sam, who is originally an Iranian (with no BK there) but has since abandoned his country to become a Norwegian (with only one BK in the town of Stavanger, see the pic, it’s beautiful!) ordered the black pepper grilled chicken set, while I opted for the BBQ Beefacon version.

there’s no food makeup in these photos, this is what you get! yums

The burgers, while not exactly as beautiful as the posters, turned out to be pretty yummy. The crunchy beef bacon on mine goes well with the juicy grilled chicken patty, and Sam loves his black pepper grilled chicken burger too.

We made quick work of the burgers, fries, and then of course, the free sundae.

P/S: actually Sam didn’t want to go to a fast food restaurant (watching his weight apparently) until I told him that it is BK and we’re going to have the grilled chicken burger, then he went “oh, okay!”

    Yup, flamed grilled burgers are great! I’m not a chicken fan though (burger wise), would always go for plain beef Whoppers. 🙂

    I think their Caramel Sundae is pretty special vs the norm of choc/strawberry sundaes. Nice one!

    It’s been a while since I’ve had burger king. How was the large serving like? Their large mushroom swiss is never enough for me. 😕

      BY: I think the price is inevitable considering their preperation method and ingredients. I thought the grilled chicken now is pretty good 🙂

    As a body builder I have always been taught to avoid fast food, that is except for BK’s grilled chicken. High on protein and low in fat, fair in price. It may not be the best chicken, but on the run, it makes the grade.
