Founded by Ramly Mokni in the 1980s, the Ramly brand initially started as a meat-processing business before transforming into a nationwide phenomenon. Today, you can find Ramly burger stalls on almost every street corner in Malaysia, each serving up its own version of this classic treat. The brand has even expanded to include several Ramly restaurants, offering a wider menu featuring their own products.
What makes a Ramly burger stand out is not just its affordability but also its unique preparation method. The patty, often wrapped in a thin egg omelette, is loaded with sauces, fresh vegetables, and sometimes even cheese, making every bite an explosion of flavours.
Recently, the Ramly burger’s reputation reached international shores when a woman from China shared her experience of trying the iconic street food. Posting on TikTok under the handle @jinyuting74, she revealed that she had ordered a burger set complete with French fries from a street stall.
Her verdict? She was thoroughly impressed. Not only did she feel that the price was reasonable, but she also claimed that the Ramly burger was among the best she had ever tasted in her life.
The video quickly gained attention online, with netizens praising her adventurous spirit and agreeing that the Ramly burger is truly something special.
It’s always exciting to see international visitors falling in love with our local delights. Have you tried a Ramly burger before? What’s your favourite way to enjoy it—with or without the signature egg wrap?
