BRUNEI - Though it may be known for beefy burgers, McDonald’s is introducing new menu options that bring fresh fruit to the fore.
A conveniently portable take on the traditional Malaysian dish Nasi Lemak, McDonald’s new Nasi Lemak Burger comes complete with a coconut-flavored chicken fillet, a special sambal sauce, a fried egg, caramelized onions, and fresh cucumber—all on a chili bun.
And, if the savory, sweet, and spicy dish is too much heat, the company has introduced cool and fruit new desserts to placate the palate. With a new Banana Sundae—soft serve topped with a banana-based sauce—and Banana McFlurry—a banana and chocolate flavored take on the company’s signature dessert—McDonald’s is providing sweet relief to ease that sambal sauce heat.
These new menu items are currently exclusive to the company’s Brunei locations, but with fresh food trending in the U.S. and palate-expanding international items making their way onto menus across the country, I wouldn’t be surprised if we saw U.S. versions soon enough.
