Crisp and refreshing for you dishes, in Singapore we serve it on the side of the chicken or char siew rice. I love to dip it in dark soy sauce and chili, taste absolutely amazing! Beside that, pickle cucumber would be another classic example of how I enjoy my burgers, sweet and acidity totally help to balance out our taste palette. Cucumber is a hack of an versatile ingredient. 

Do let me know if you have any cucumbers flavor affinities!
