The first time I had food at Pantry I resolved not to come to this place again. This place however somehow has a huge group of followers and the zillion recommendations from colleagues and friends made me think I might happen to have landed on a bad day. So Take 2 was ON then.....Started off with the Tomato Soup which was ok....followed by a cheese pizza and chicken strips...Awesome !....Main course : Thai red curry with coconut milk and yes of course the highly recommended California Beef Burger. The curry was good, served with garlic and mint rice...the Burger.....sadly another disappointment. The patty was thick with a crust that was almost burnt and tasted like charcoal...the innards were red but dry...A beef patty without the beefy juices is like having a Michelin or Bridgestone between buns. And I am sure somebody forgot to put in the sauces, salts, and spices as the flavour was totally bland....the only good thing about it was the bun was fresh out of oven!I had to call in the duty manager and was quickly offered an apology and a complimentary dessert. The soft and sweat Italian pudding with a scope of vanilla thus saved the day :-) So my friend Mr Gorra ...... this place is definitely not for beef burgers !
