The ideal location to sate your fast-food cravings, Mad Munch is where you should be. Its eccentric and artsy ambience is perfect for unwinding and pausing for a bit amidst the chaos of Basantapur.
Madmunch platter
This huge platter consists of corndogs, momo and chicken wings, chatpatey and fries. But I have to talk about the corndogs! As someone who enjoys K-dramas, I frequently notice this trend of corndog in recent television shows. The corndog, as we typically know, is a hotdog dipped in flour mixture and then fried until golden brown. We had two corndogs on a single platter, one was the normal one filled with half cheese and half sausage, and the other was similar to the first one but was coated with potato pieces. And let me tell you, these corndogs were *chef’s kiss*!
The breading was quite tender and expertly cooked. The batter was evenly spread, and the meat inside was not overcooked. While having one, don't forget to top it with ketchup and honey mustard. It adds that extra dose of deliciousness. Despite the potato-topped corndog's thickness, I prefer it more than your typical corndog. It was undoubtedly the best corndog I had in a while!
Chicken burger
As soon as I took a bite, I immediately smelled the mixture of flavours and spices right away. The burger fillings left me with the strongest impression: the chicken patty tastes juicy and crunchy thanks to the sear, and the lettuce provides a pleasant touch.
The parmesan crisps are equally tasty and crunchy, but the burger’s other ingredients overpower them. The flavour of the perfectly cooked chicken and the veggies spreads throughout your mouth when you consume it. Crispy Chicken Patty was tender, and the scent of the spicy sauce was just right. The cheese is the dish's star as it adds something even though it has a mild flavour.
I can tell from experience that Mad Munch’s chicken burger passes the vibe test. They do not lack the weight of a fried chicken and retain all the flavour, crunch, and special features like butter and creamy mayo sauce. It's a little bulky, but it is the ideal hamburger for when you are starving.
Loaded cheese chips
Bananas chips with cheese and bacon as dressings? You must be curious as we were! Thanks to their delicious crispiness and savoury cheese flavouring, it tasted exotic. The trendy fries had a little bit of everything—cheese, nacho sauce, chilli, mustard, pulled pork, bacon, and gravy. The combination of these crunchy chips and shredded pork with the topping of salsa and sauce was second to none. I am not even embarrassed to admit that I licked the bowl clean! It was my favourite dish so far.
Smoothies
I was somewhat shocked by how many Kit Kat crumbs were floating in my cup immediately. I was pleasantly surprised by the drink's colour as well because I could see that there wasn't any chocolate syrup to dilute it. That worried me. I didn't want this to be just another commonplace chocolate beverage. I was eager to sample the unique flavour of the wafers blended with the chocolate. It basically tastes like milk mixed with two to three whole Kit Kat sticks and ice in a blender. Every slushy sip is filled with a generous amount of little chocolate chunks and creamy milk(better than that sounds). I've got good news. You can now consume frozen Kit Kat bits blended with milk if you've ever desired a liquid Kit Kat. Having said that, I wouldn't suggest beginning your day with this, though.
Mad Munch is a good option if you're looking for a place that will transport you to the world of fast food or corndogs without the guilt trip. The restaurant houses the most humble staff to cater to your needs or when you’re in doubt to choose from the wide variety of choices. They put in a long night's work to ensure their guests have an excellent time while conversing, sharing, and enlightening. Mad Munch takes chances with their food, exposing you to second to none flavours.
