Fast food giant Burger King is putting the fun back into the family dining experience by offering children a choice of four exciting carnival themed toys with every kid’s meal. The colourful and exciting ‘Little Tikes Carnival Toy’ collection is part of Burger King’s plan to put a smile on children’s faces and bring some enthusiasm and cheer back in to the popular kids’ meal. Children will have a chance to obtain the toys when they choose from one of four delicious child friendly meals on the new and improved Burger King kids’ menu. The mouth-watering menu consists of the beef burger and the beef burger with cheese both made from 100% flame grilled beef, while the new BK chicken burger and the popular chicken nuggets are succulent, tender and delightfully crispy. The kids’ menu also includes Burger King’s healthier alternative, the veggie burger meal, which is a delicious way for kids to get in their five-a-day with a healthy vegetable burger that is full of flavours that pack a punch, as well as Burger King’s premium fish burger the Fish’ N Crisp, which is a deliciously golden breaded fish fillet in a toasted sesame bun. The menu also offers kids two delectable dessert options, the Hershey’s Sunday Pie and the Ice Cream Sundays. By ordering one of their favourite meals kids will have a choice between the Target Smash, the Carnival Target, the Carnival Coaster and the Zip Flip Arcade Game which are part of Burger King’s fun and original toy collection that bring the imagination and play of a carnival to life. The durable and safe toys meet with Burger King’s exceptional safety standards and are appropriate for children of all ages, ensuring that parents can feel good about purchasing age-appropriate toys for their children. The toys originating from the USA ensure the highest quality and meet international standards for toy safety. The kids toys are the latest in Burger King’s efforts to distinguish themselves from the slew of fast food restaurants in Sri Lanka with an understanding that “family friendly” doesn’t just mean “kid friendly”, but an inclusion of the whole family in the dining experience. As a brand they have gone to great lengths to strike the perfect balance with their appealing menu and a welcoming atmosphere that endears families to the restaurants. The fun and exciting kids’ play areas at the Burger King branches in Mount Lavinia, Rajagiriya and Colpetty are a great kid-and-parent pleasing feature, with entertaining play arrangements and ample space for kids to run around without getting in the way of the other patrons. The high design and the top notch play structures have been especially constructed for the restaurants by Axis Planning Inc. a Canadian company with specialist expertise in designing safe and secure play spaces for children which means that kids have free rein to play and be active while parents can dine in peace knowing that their little fun seekers are in good hands. All Burger King restaurants in Sri Lanka are operated by the brand’s master franchisee, Softlogic Restaurants Ltd., which is a subsidiary of Softlogic Holdings PLC. Softlogic is one of the leading, dynamic organisations in Sri Lanka today, having expanded and diversified into the growth sectors of the economy in terms of retail, healthcare, ICT, automobiles, leisure and finance and holding authorised distributorships for some key global brand names.
