  • The Croger – Glou Glou

    The Croger – Glou Glou

    Has France gone too far? Non! The Croger is the latest invention by Glou Glou and man, this one’s a bold one. It would have been so easy to slip a chicken tender into a sliced croissant and call it a day, but this is so much more than that. The chicken is crispy and… Read more

  • Saigon Meat Welly – Saigon Taste

    Saigon Meat Welly – Saigon Taste

    I love a burger that tastes like not-a-burger but feels like a-burger. Inspired primiarily by bánh mì, the Saigon Meat Welly is a really tasty replica of the classic French-Vietnamese sandwich, without losing sight of what makes a burger and fries so satisfying to eat. The bun is toasty and dry enough to absorb all… Read more

    Chick’n Little – Winner Winner

    You ever wish that the McChicken experience was good? Properly seasoned coating with shredded lettuce and a burger sauce that’s tangy and rich. Chips that actually taste nice and and a proper bit of dairy to dip your fries into? That’s what the Chick’n Little at Winner Winner provides. There is zero doubt about the… Read more

  • Sophisti-Cajun – The Old Bailey

    Sophisti-Cajun – The Old Bailey

    When I think ‘Cajun’, my mind doesn’t immediately jump to ‘avocado’. But there it is, pairing really nicely with the inion relish below the patty. The crispy onions add texture and the bun is easy to handle. The Sophisti-Cajun is a burger that wants to bring class to Cajun cuisine. To use its spices and… Read more

  • Forbidden Fantasy – Le Ciel

    Forbidden Fantasy – Le Ciel

    I love it when a burger plays it risky. When they come up with a concept that initially sounds insane, but, when executed, absolutely blows me away. Le Ciel’s Forbidden Fantasy is an innovative dessert burger with mushroom gelato and a sage gelée that’s so refreshing and tasty. The ice cream actually tastes like mushroom.… Read more

    Quirky Lady – Where’s Charlie Lambton Quay

    A quick lunch with friends is sometimes all you need after a tough morning. You wait a little while for a burger and you get get chatting about your friend’s soulmate, whom she’s just met. You talk about theatre and common disdain for flashbacks in improvised theatre. You’re laughing, enjoying your burgers in the cold… Read more

  • Bun Bun and Sum – The Old Quarter

    Bun Bun and Sum – The Old Quarter

    As a second burger of the day, the Bun Bun and Sum by The Old Quarter had a lot running against it. I ordered it via Delivereasy and ate it in front of a YouTube video that was competing with it for my full attention. It’s messy, saucy and I needed gloves to scoff it… Read more

  • Heart of Gold – Foxglove

    Heart of Gold – Foxglove

    Sometimes, a burger’s just gotta be a classic. Patty, onions, pickles, cheese, bread. Nothing too special, nothing too grand. You’d be forgiven for believing The Heart of Gold at Foxglove is such a burger. It is unassuming, comes wrapped in brown paper and starts leaking juices the moment you pick it up. For all intents… Read more

  • Shiver Me Timbers – Bebemos

    Shiver Me Timbers – Bebemos

    Stepping into Newtown for me is strange, like uncharted waters. How fitting that my first burger of Burger Welly is Bebemos’ Shiver Me Tenders, a stack of chicken and pepper that is jsut such a joy to tuck into. Bebemos provides three condiments; the queso, the birria and the salsa. The queso, I’m warned, is… Read more
