Yes I know they are famous for pork ribs. But no, I didnt order any.
Thats cos Im a pork burger addict and I was having a major craving for pork burgers for ages, which has to be appeased pronto before I start PMS-ing on those around me. 
It was also thankfully one of the restaurants around that didnt feel there was a need to play annoying festival Chinese New Year songs during this festive season, sparing me the agony of endless looping of CNY songs in my head. 
The restaurant is bathed in incandescent light, suited for its intended ambiance of casual dining and drinking environment. Divided into 3 main sections; theres an al fresco dining section outside, a bar and an indoor dining area.
There was a quite a selections of beers, perfect to go with a rack of ribs; but Im not a beer person so it was strictly food for me that day.
We started with 2 pork burgers, of which we eventally realized to be a BIG mistake, as both essentially tastedthe same though the men! us descr iption was deceivingly different!
Blackened Cheese & Onions Burger
Grilled with blackened seasoning and topped with cheddar cheese and sauted onions.Leon ordered this as he wanted to try the blackened seasoning or black cheese as we were lead to believe by the fancy name.
What we got was fundamentally a cheeseburger. No black cheese or blackened cheese. As you can see from the above, my cheese was as snowy pale as it could possibly be.
If it could be of any consolation, there was a subtantial amount of black pepper in the patty. However, the seasoning barely made any difference in terms of taste, as the pepper flavour was mild.While I liked the sweet sauteed onions, Leon didnt think it was worth a mention at all.
Here is our next burger; theSmokehouse Bacon Cheeseburger. Obviously we ordered this for the bacon and for the BBQ sauce.
The description says Glazed with Hickory BBQ sauce, cheddar cheese, sauted onions and crispy pork bacon.
But in the end, both patties were similar, and the only differentiating factor was the condiments that came with it.
The cheeses were the usual parmesan and cheddar, flat in taste and flavour. The BBQ burger taste primarily comes from the BBQ sauce. Some slices of tomatoes and a few leaves of lettuce with the same sauteed onions topped off both burgers.
To conclude our experience, we didnt enjoy our pork burgers. And while Leon would never step into Morganfields again, I might still hop in for the ribs, if a pork ribs craving ever strikes. After all, a foodie has to sample other offerings on the menu at the same establishment before passing judgement.
So whos up for the pork ribs?
