Despite the terrible experience we had at the Epicurious outlet at Robertson Quay, we decided to give the outlet at The Rail Mall a chance, since we had read rave reviews about its burger, and happened to be in the vicinity.

For a Friday evening, it wasn’t awfully crowded, and we managed to secure the only table on the verandah. The menu had two parts to it – one full of Thai food (from the restaurant next door, that seemed to be a segmented part of Epicurious), and one with Western food. We decided to go with the burger and a grilled pork belly, with a tom yum soup (from the Thai menu) for starters.

The food was pretty average – tom yum was awfully salty, and came with two, yes, just two (albeit yummy) prawns. The burger patty was kinda mushy, not quite our thing. The next time we’re back around that area, we’re likely to try one of the other restaurants in The Rail Mall though – most of them looked a lot more populated than Epicurious, which I’m pretty sure says a thing or two.
