Fatboy's the Burger Bar is a burger restaurant at 187 Upper Thomson Rd, Singapore. It has a 4.2 rating from 1,053 Google reviews. Its website says brothers Kennie and Bernie Tay opened the first Fatboy's on Upper Thomson Road on 25 September 2009, and that it has since spread across Singapore and the region. The menu includes house recipes and a build-your-own burger option. Reservations are taken by calling the outlet. Reviewers mention jalapeño poppers, truffle fries, a pork burger, happy hour and the Ono Ono burger, and describe a spacious, relaxed dining room.
A good burger starts with a well-seasoned patty cooked to the right doneness, a bun that holds together, and toppings that add contrast rather than just bulk. Build-your-own menus are handy but can lead to over-ordering, so start with a patty you like and add two or three toppings. Fries and sides are often big, so sharing is sensible for a group. Eating a burger soon after it is served keeps the bun from going soggy.
For a casual burger meal on Upper Thomson Road, Fatboy's is a long-standing option.
