The Signature Collection, McDonald’s commitment to Quality and Indulgence

McDonald’s has invested significant efforts into meticulously combining exotic ingredients, toppings and gourmet patties to offer exceptional taste and a new dining experience at McDonald’s.

• Introducing the soft fluffy potato bun: For the first time, McDonald’s restaurants in North and East India introduced water-split potato bun. Baked to perfection, the softness of the potato bun perfectly complements the juicy, flavorful patties of the Signature Collection, ensuring a delightful bite every time.

• Gourmet Veggies: Adding to the taste and texture, are carefully selected gourmet toppings, such as gherkins providing sweet & tangy contrast, and exotic vegetables like red cabbage & lettuce that add freshness and crunch. 

• Gourmet Patties: Made with the finest ingredients, the veg burger offers double delight, layering a rich cheddar molten cheese patty and a flavorful corn and cheese patty - bringing a delightful blend of creamy cheese and sweet corn. The non-veg burger features a 100% chicken filet, offering a delicious meaty savory taste.   

• Elevated dining experience: Dining-in customers can enjoy these gourmet burgers served with complimentary fries on a wooden paddle, elevating the dining experience with its Signature Collection. The crew members, dressed in exclusive Signature Collection uniforms add a touch of elegance to the experience.
