It all started with thisโฆ
And Singaporeans went crazy.
The Google search keyword of the day was McDonaldโs, McGriddles, or McDonaldโs McGriddles Singapore.
Most Singaporeans were praying for May to be over. Not because of the Trump-Kim summit, but because of McGriddles.
Itโs all about priorities, man.
Then, news broke out that McGriddles actually launched in Singaporeโs McDonaldโs two days earlier than the official launch.
Instead of 7 June, the holy-momma of all breakfast burgers made their reappearance in Singapore on 5 June.
After such glowing reviews, who can resist trying it out for themselves?
So, me, being my usual cheapo self, decided to ask my boss if we should review the McGriddles. And my fat boss, after seeing how much I want to eat the McGriddles for free, told me heโll do it himself.
After loads of negotiations (read: crying, sobbing and begging), he finally bought one measly McGriddles for me. Not that Iโm complaining.
In return, I have to be his slave (or even more of a slave than usual) for the rest of the week.
Yes, that felt like a handshake with the devil.
He refuses to let me try the Chicken Pizza Kickers, though.
All-Day Breakfast for a limited time
Okay, this is more of a PSA for those who couldnโt wake up in time for McDonaldโs breakfast menu.
The McGriddles is available all-day at McDonaldโs outlets and through McDelivery.
In fact, you might want to get it during lunch or dinner time because then, youโd enjoy the chicken pizza kickers at the same time.
Weโve also reviewed the Chicken Pizza Kickers, but thatโs an app-exclusive article so ahead and download our free app to read it:

So, with that said, hereโs our review for the all-star favourite.
Not exactly like the advertised burger but itโs pretty damn close
Iโll be totally honest here. I wasnโt expecting the McGriddles to look good. For one, Iโm a complete believer in Picture is for Display Purposes only.
And two, we ordered via delivery, so it might have been disfigured on the way here.
But it still looks pretty good. Here, take a look for yourself.
That and my colleague said heโll take the pictures for me after seeing my (non-existent) photography skills in a previous article.
At least you can still see the โMโ on the hotcake.
When you unwrap the McGriddles, the sweet smell of pancake wafting through the air is enough to get you drooling.
So, enough about the looks. Now, letโs talk about whatโs inside.
Itโs not whatโs outside, but whatโs inside, thatโs important โ Wise old man, 2091.
So, does this highly-anticipated burger meet the standard, or is it overhyped?
Letโs admit it. For most items that are this hyped up, the real stuff usually falls flat. With a splat.
Kind of like youโre talking to this guy online and heโs a definite 10/10, kind of cute like Song Joong-ki.
But when you meet him in person, heโs more of a Lee Kwang-Soo. No, Lee Kwang Su isnโt ugly but youโre disappointed anyways. And a second date is the last thing on your mind.
Will this happen with the McGriddles? Thankfully, it didnโt.
When you take the first bite, youโre going to go into sensory overload. Confirm.
The sweet hotcake โbreadโ with maple syrup, together with the savoury chicken sausage and cheese, forms a sharp contrast in taste.
Yet, they strangely blend together as well.
Instead of an explosion of flavours (which is used too much in food reviews), Iโd say itโs like a fusion between east and west. Both so different from one another, yet able to blend so well together like Laksa and pasta.
Plus, the burger is the right size, not too big that we canโt bite from the different layers equally, yet not too small for us to feel cheated.
And, for the first time ever, Iโll say that you wonโt get too jelat from the sweet maple syrup.
All in all, Iโll give this a 5 out of 5 stars.
The only drawback is this: itโs not filling.
Like my skinny colleague said, you can have it as a snack, but not as a meal.
Not me ah, someone skinny.
Conclusion: Try it or youโll live in regret for the rest of your life
Okay, maybe not that serious. But seriously, give it a shot before itโs gone after the World Cup 2018. Yes, itโs that good.
Forget the Party McFlurry though. Seems like itโs just using your normal McFlurry and multiplying it by 4. Thatโs just my opinion, though.
