🍔Tried out these “McDonalds” taste-alike chicken burger patties and nuggets from @newmultisg today. 🍗The Spicy Boneless Chicken Thigh is practically a replica of the “McSpicy” with the Chicken Nuggets trailing right behind. The Original Chicken Patty also has a close resemblance to the “McMuffin” sausage patty though I think the “McSpicy alike still wins all hands down. 🎉Feel free to use promo code “eatwhattonight5” to enjoy 5% discount off total bill on www.newmultifood.com (except promotional items) with a $8 delivery fee and free delivery for orders above $65, valid till 31st Dec 2023.
