We’re skipping the thin fish patties and throwing on our very own barramundi fish filet in-between these buns. There’s also a Singaporean-twist to the typical tartar sauce with the addition of sambal belacan!

Seriously juicy and flavourful, this fish burger will leave you saying, “It’s finger-lickin good!” (like seriously it’s really good)
