VOLKS BURGER KL
It’s so common nowadays to have a Volkswagen Kombi for your bridal car, but no one would expect your Kombi to come with burgers. Their home-ground beef burgers, served from a converted Volkswagen Kombi, definitely shout retro. A must-try is their well-seasoned beef patty topped with melted mozzarella, cheddar cheese and crispy beef bacon. Not exactly sure if they do event, but try contacting them on Facebook if you are interested.
