Here comes the homemade pork burger in town! 43 Cafe that is located at no. 43 by Jalan Sungai Dua, this self-owned double storey terrace house that is nearby the University Science of Malaysia (USM) is the place that you can expect for a delicious homemade pork burger. To cater only about 8 tables of guests, they're serving quite a limited menu but almost everything is about the pork.
We've started with the appetizers that are called Egg Pecah Toast and the Nom Nom Nom. The 1st dish is the fried egg or scrambled-type of egg with their special chili paste that is topped over the toasted bread while the Nom Nom Nom is indeed the modern style Penang Satay. The sliced pork fillet is marinated with the special homemade sauce that tastes alike the mixture of ginger and lemongrass that is then being oven grilled. I find the egg is not salty enough and I'll prefer if the chili paste can be spicier but this is a special dish that its taste can be accepted by the kids. I'm totally indulged into the Satay as the meat is having the "biteness" yet it's neither hard nor dry that I can still feel the swirling of the taste and the juiciness of the marination sauce in my mouth. A very small difference comparing to the charcoal grill is maybe the oven is unable to create a slight burnt and crisp at the outer of the meat. Why is it named as Nom Nom Nom? Chew the Satay in your mouth and you'll answer the "Why"...
Our main courses are of course their special pork burger whereby Attila has ordered the 43's Pork Pork TT while I've taken the Fork Pork Single. To start the basic introduction, their burgers are available in 3 versions or number of patties that are called Single, DT (Double Troubles) or TT (Triple Troubles) and in 3 types of sauces that range from Original, Black Pepper to BBQ. Either for the big eater or to add-on for the tastes, you can opt for additional cheese, bacon, vegetable or the meat that is either patty or the fork pork. The Pork Pork is the pork patty that is oven grilled before being sandwiched with the crunchy lettuce, fresh onion, tomato and mayonnaise in between the sesame buns that have been lightly toasted. The Fork Pork is pork that has been slowly cooked with 9 types of herbs and spices that the meat looks alike being shredded that it's very tender and juicy. The burgers are delicious as both of the meats are indeed very juicy. Anyway, I'm recommending to add the cheese and pork bacon to give a little bit more saltiness and taste to the burger.
The environment here may not be the most cozy that I've ever known as I need to listen to the pray from the nearby mosque during my meal yet I've totally enjoyed their special pork burgers here. Oh ya, not to forget the Homemade Ginger Tea! It's spicy and this hot tea is really warming the stomach.
