McDonald’s Korea has unveiled a new menu, and it is called the Spicy Mac and Cheese Burger. This new flavor added a spicy twist to the regular mac and cheeseburger.
The new McDonald’s Korea’s Spicy Mac and Cheese Burger offer customers a sandwich with a spicy chicken breast patty that is made spicy-delicious by the cayenne pepper-flavored mac and cheese spread on top of the crunchy patty. The mac and cheese itself are already delectable as it is made with the best ingredients, including Grana Padano and cheddar cheese, and crispy bacon.
The Spicy Mac and Cheese Burger is completed with a layer of lettuce and mayonnaise, then sandwiched in a sesame seed bun. According to Chew Boom, the new food item at McDonald’s Korea is being offered for ₩6,200 or around $5.28, a la carte. The other option is to order this burger with a side and drink, which is priced at ₩7,500 or $6.36 in US dollars.
Koreans love spicy food, so this menu will surely be another hit in McDonald’s Korea outlets. Then again, customers should take note that there could be locations that do not offer Spicy Mac and Cheese Burger, so they should check availability first before visiting a store.
Also, the sandwich will only be around for a limited time. It was reported that it will be offered until Nov. 24, so there is still time to grab the chance and have a taste of this comfort food that will surely click with the Koreans’ palate.
Mashed noted that McDonald’s Korea’s Spicy Mac and Cheese Burger is another food item that foreigners may also want to try. The restaurant chain already introduced the bulgogi burger in the past, and it highlighted the sweet and savory taste of the popular local beef menu called the bulgogi, and this was well-liked by the non-Koreans too.
Finally, customers can have the McDonald’s Korea’s Spicy Mac and Cheese Burger as a snack, but this is also available for purchase under the McLunch option and priced at ₩6,800 or about $5.85.
