Burger King Tries Muted Style in Singapore

Posted by Dale Buss on December 7, 2011 01:01 PM

Comfy couches, muted colors, flower-pot lampshades — does that sound like Burger King to you? Well, the Miami-based chain indeed is experimenting with those decorating concepts at a new spot it just opened, called Garden Grill, in Singapore. It's meant to be more alluring to families than the chain's traditionally "louder" color story and trappings.

The menu remains the same as BK's fare worldwide but oh, that ambience! There is crisp, clean wood throughout, from the tables and chairs to the ceiling. And no color brighter than a sort of chartreuse is anywhere to be seen. If we didn't know any better, we'd swear that Burger King is trying to catch up with McDonald's overhaul of the inner decor of its restaurants at many locations worldwide.

Burger King isn't planning to bring the Garden Grill concept (by Outofstock design) to the United States, at least anytime soon. Do you think they could move the King to Singapore too? More images below:
