KFC Zinger Tower review
When I am only alone, I tend to eat fast food
Friend A was busy working late
Friend B was playing badminton
Friend C had already eaten
So, it was me all alone again
My choice was either [tag]KFC[/tag] or McDonalds
Between KFC Zinger Tower and Prosperity Burger
I don’t like the overwhelming black pepper sauce of Prosperity Burger
So, I had a Zinger Tower from the X-meal
Didn’t really care about the negative reviews I saw on forums
Because I was curious
What is Zinger Tower?
It’s a Zinger burger, with extra things and some modifications
Mayonaise was substituted zesty lime chili sauce
Some people said it tasted like dish wash
But I thought it was OK
A hash brown was added under the [tag]Zinger[/tag] fillet
It was pretty soggy and bland
But it did make me feel fuller
Oh yeah, I don’t like Pepsi Max
So I requested normal Pepsi
X-meal cost RM10.50, ok lah
Zinger Tower ala carte cost RM6.60, omg
My overall verdict?
GIVE ME BACK MY ORIGINAL ALREADY AWESOME ZINGER
I have a feeling KFC introduced this to fight with McD’s Prosperity
I think it won’t be effective
Instead, it would only drive the Zinger lovers away
Cham loh, it will be on the menu for quite long
How ar? Sien

KFC Zinger Maxx is an improved version from the normal [tag]KFC[/tag] [tag]Zinger[/tag] [tag]Burger[/tag]. It has a different type of bun, called the kaiser bun. Interesting name for a bun lol, got a bit Japanese feel to it. Anyway it is a popular bread in the Western countries, and usually topped with poppy or sesame seed,

KFC X-Meal, Chick’n Fingers

Chick’n Fingers is [tag]KFC[/tag]‘s latest menu item. Basically it is similar to nuggets just that it has a hint of BBQ taste. I bought it out of curiosity to complement my X-Meal, which had its wedges replaced with crinkel cut fries. Either way, I think they fail I never liked wedges because it leaves a

How long will it be on the menu for? I was hoping one of the food blogs I read will review this. Actually I didn’t find it that awful, but that handwash pukey dressing has got to go!!

Creativity gone wrong especially if ‘modification’ approvals are given from Balding Oldies sitting on the Board.

yea, the 1st version of Zinger already the best! suprisingly KFC keeping the pricing at RM10+ but not the other burger food store such as McD, Wendy’s…..their price add up to almost RM20…gee, gila
i also dont like the McD prosperity burger, black Pepper flavour is too strong. i prefer Samurai burger instead.

hmmm im still curious about this…heard it calling out my name the other day when i saw that it had a hash brown inside! lol but until today havent tried it yet. seems like i should ask for the dressing on the side
i also dont like McD’s prosperity burger. its too spicy and it usually comes out too soggy (too much sauce) bring back Samurai burger any day!!
