Zouk Group has recently announced its expansion plans for Five Guys in Singapore and Malaysia. Opening its first-ever Five Guys in the heart of the city, Singapore’s second outlet will be located in NEX, Serangoon, and is targeted to open by early 2021. Building on the success, the first-ever Five Guys outlet in Malaysia will open its doors where Genting Group was founded - Genting Highlands.
Since Five Guys was introduced in the Lion City in December 2019, it has experienced great success and captured the tastebuds of Singaporeans. Building on the popularity and success of its first outlet, Zouk Group is now making the legendary American fast-casual restaurant even more accessible. Conveniently located in a bustling suburban district of the country, and coupled with delivery service, Singaporeans in the north-east region will also be able to enjoy the classic burger from the comfort of their own homes.
Five Guys, with its hallmark red and white colour scheme, is well known for serving up all-time American favourites – it’s fresh-to-order burgers with 15 customisable toppings and hand-cut fries as its claim to fame. A brand built on customer experience, the Five Guys ethos of no freezers, no microwaves and no timers has allowed them to deliver consistent and premium quality food that is made fresh all over the world.
The iconic menu consists of four basic burgers – Hamburger, Cheeseburger, Baconburger and Bacon Cheeseburger – which can then be customised with 15 free toppings, resulting in 250,000 different ways to order a Five Guys burger. Five Guys fries are equally as renowned, using freshly cut potatoes deep-fried to a golden sheen in 100% peanut oil. Also, on the menu are four basic Hot Dogs (also customisable), Sandwiches, and the famous Five Guys Milkshake.
What’s Shakin’, Suntec City? To celebrate the opening of Shake Shack Suntec City on September 30th, the fan-favorite ShackMeister™ menu is available exclusively at the new location from before debuting across all four Singapore Shacks on October 5th.
The ShackMeister™ was first created in 2015 for a burger competition in the USA, securing the Judge’s Choice for Best Burger, and eventually appearing on the Shake Shack menu for a limited time that same year. Lending a twist to the classic ShackBurger®, the ShackMeister™ has a heaping pile of crispy fried shallots on top of 100% Angus beef, bringing a garlicky flavor and extra crunch. The shallots are marinated in custom-brewed ShackMeister™ ale, tossed in the same coating as the Chick’n Shack with flour, cayenne and paprika then crisp fried until golden.
Exclusive to the new Shack is Matcha Made in Heaven, a strawberry-matcha Concrete for those with a sweet tooth. Rich, creamy vanilla frozen custard is blended with a tart strawberry yuzu jam and buttery shortbread, and topped with premium matcha powder.
As part of Shake Shack’s mission to Stand For Something Good®, 5% of sales from the Shack Attack™ concrete at the Shack will continue to go to a charity partner. Shake Shack Suntec City’s selected partner is HealthServe Limited, a non-profit organization dedicated to providing healing and hope to migrant workers in Singapore.
Attention all burger-lovers, cult-favourite American burger joint, Five Guys has opened its first Singapore store at Plaza Singapura.
Occupying a space of over 460 sqm, the outlet at Plaza Singapura is located along a prime stretch on the ground floor of the mall overlooking the Orchard Road belt. Currently comprising an indoor area that seats up to 52 patrons, the store will eventually also house an outdoor seating area that will increase the outlet’s capacity to accommodate up to over 160 patrons.
The Singapore store is the global burgers and fries joint’s first franchise in Asia, and the latest addition to Zouk Group’s growing food and beverage portfolio as part of its lifestyle expansion plans.
“After many months of planning, we’re thrilled to finally unveil the very first Five Guys store in Singapore. Five Guys is an exciting addition to our portfolio, and we were fortunate to be presented with an opportune space in the city that is highly accessible, so that fans of Five Guyscan come together to enjoy their favourite burgers with ease. This first outlet will be the bedrock upon which we grow the brand in Singapore, and we look forward to more to come,” says Andrew Li, Chief Executive Officer of Zouk Group.
Five Guys is a family run burgers & fries joint offering a mouth-watering menu made from scratch. Five Guys has been a Washington, D.C. area favorite since 1986 when Jerry and Janie Murrell offered sage advice to three of the Murrell brothers: “Start a business or go to college.” The business route won and the Murrells opened a carry-out burger joint in Arlington, Virginia, USA. Under the guidance of Jerry and Janie, the little burger joint quickly developed a cult-like following. Customers voted the burger “#1” in the D.C. metro area.
During the 1980s and 1990s, the Murrells perfected their simple concept. Five Guys became The Place to get a fresh, juicy burger with all the toppings you could stuff between two fresh-baked buns. Two more brothers joined the team and as the family grew, so did the business. Early in 2003, Jerry and Janie, together with the “Five Guys”, began offering franchise opportunities. In just under 18 months, more than 300 units had been sold.
Now, decades after FIVE GUYS first opened, there are locations across North America, Europe, the Middle East and Asia, with planned expansion into Australia, Africa, Central and South America. By maintaining a simple ethos, coupled with the highest quality, the Murrells continue to follow through on the vision they outlined in 1986.
Five Guys’ mission is to redefine the global burger landscape by focusing on freshness and quality. With no freezers and no microwaves, it is built on the premise that all burgers and fries are made fresh every day. The meat is a perfected 80/20 lean-to-fat ratio. Patties are hand-made seven days a week on site. The bread, which is Five Guys’ only proprietary item, is baked fresh five days a week in a locally contracted bakery. The same unique recipe is used globally. Potatoes are cut fresh daily, soaked to remove the starch and double-fried in pure, no cholesterol peanut oil to create the firm exterior and fluffy ‘mashed-potato’ interior that Five Guys fries are known for.
