The restaurant wrote: “RM350, record-breaking feast. All-time biggest record ever. One person eats for RM350.”
“Ashwad Fat Burger makes a comeback. What a crazy comeback. He’s also a food review influencer. Last year it was RM222, and today it’s RM350—he’s really on fire.
“Now he’s the all-time number 1. The Singaporean record only lasted two months,” it stated.
The restaurant noted that it did not invite this record breaking feat but that the influencer initiated this eating fest on his own.
Ashwad’s recent feat surpasses the previous record held by Singaporean TikToker Zermatt Neo who finished a RM300 plate of nasi kandar.
Some netizens joked about Ashwad’s potential annual nasi kandar consumption, while others compared him to Singaporean Zermatt, noting that Zermatt’s record was more impressive due to the larger quantity of rice.
“Just one plate of rice...the side dishes are expensive...not that impressive...Zermatt’s rice portion was meant for four people!” one user called Fareezwan Faiz commented.
“How can we lose? Malaysia boleh!” Mahamad Syazwan Sukri commented jokingly.
