The first thing that this brand new eatery screams out when you enter is fast food. It's all about fast food and the ambience goes on to say no more than that. Functional tables and chairs that could be conveniently moved around, red walls, red lamps and a name that sounds like Peppa Zzing leaves you with few guesses about how the next meal is going to look. Started by popular emcee, anchor and ex-hotelier Mark Rego, the place surely knows its food well and the menu- short, precise and non-descriptive speaks for itself.

We stopped by for a hurried meal on our way back home from work and decided to give our take away plans a ditch. The burgers we admit even from a distance looked as messy as they can get. We started out with Bangers and Mash (Rs 140) and a plateful of Cheesed Fries (Rs 70). The first one came as a plate with an assortment of munchies- fried chicken sausages, cheesy mashed potatoes, saut ufffded tomatoes, mushrooms and a piece of heavily seasoned garlic bread. The combination works great as a starter but is hardly a judge of the eatery's culinary skills. We decided to go straight to the burger from here.
We ordered a Peppa Zzing Burger (Rs 150) where we were given a choice of meat- beef, lamb or chicken. The chicken burger, despite belonging to the smallest category they have (the others being Monster and Whammy) was huge in size with a patty that threatened to squeeze its way out of the bun with oodles of mayo and mustard already oozing out on our plates. We were warned this was going to be a messy affair and we conceded without a doubt.

This hearty and delicious patty was topped with chopped onions, mushroom, mayonnaise, mustard and a fried egg. To say the least, it was a no frills meaty and messy affair in a basket on a bed of potato chips. Satiated and having exhausted all the tissue papers on our table we decided to move to dessert.

With not much to choose from, we settled for the Hot Chocolate Fudge (Rs 80), three scoops of ice cream on chocolate fudge garnished with peanuts, hardly a match to the burger. If all the red in the ambience does not please you all that much, Peppa Zzing gets your order straight to your car, so you can chomp down on burgers and get as messy as you desire in your own space.
