Instead of the usual beef, chicken, or dory fish patty, the vendor went bold by using an entire fried catfish, generously coated with his own special sauce. In the video, he's seen carefully layering the burger from the freshly toasted buns to the golden, crispy fish before serving it to curious customers eager to give it a try.
The unusual combination quickly sparked heated debates among food lovers. While some praised the creativity and local twist, others admitted they couldn't imagine biting into a burger with a whole catfish inside.
Regardless of opinions, one thing is for sure: this catfish burger proves that when it comes to food, Malaysians never shy away from experimenting with bold and unexpected flavours.
