REALLY GOOD
1st BANANA BURGER
La Bananas, Val-d'Isère
Banana in name only (after the venue) not fruit involved. It did however have a potato cake, reblochon, crispy onions, bacon, and various crispy salad elements. Overall one delicious burger!!
2nd WAGYU WONDER (LOW CARB BUN)
Grill'd Penrith, Penrith
So on the plus side, they didn’t burn the bun this time 😂 but these low-carb buns look so grim, don’t they? Goes to show how much of the appealing look of the burger is the bun! Looks aside, this burger actually tasted delicious!
3rd CRISPY BACON AND CHEESE BURGER (LOW CARB BUN)
Grill'd Penrith, Penrith
So that bun does NOT look appealing. I’m pretty sure it’s slightly burnt. However the burger on the whole was really tasty, (unappealing, burntish #lowcarb bun included!)
4th BACON DOUBLE CHEESE BURGER
MEATliquor Croydon, Croydon
Very tasty! Obvs mine is the “rabbit” version served in iceberg lettuce rather than a bun. For some burgers this leaves you with a really sad looking patty on a plate but this was still a very decent meal! Nice pickles too.
PRETTY GOOD
5th NASTY BURGER
Kimzu sea Lounge (EOT), Agios Nikolaos
Pretty nice but not earth-shattering. Bun was way too bready for me too. Lovely spot for lunch though!
6th BACON CHEESEBURGER
Bill's Battersea Restaurant, London
Another #lowcarb burger - the salad they substituted for the burger was actually really nice although ~drenched~ in dressing. I asked for the burger well done because I’m not a fan of salmonella/listeria (rare steak 👍; uncooked mince 👎) but they went slightly overkill on it and the party was pretty dry. Otherwise nice though!
7th BACON CHEESE BURGER (BUNLESS)
Dexter Burger Purley, Purley
Went for the #lowcarb bunless option and Sweet Potato Fries. The fries were great, perfect combo of crispy and soft. The actual burger was tasty and they offered some chilli jam to go with it - delicious, although I would have liked it spicier! What let this down somewhat was the “side salad” that ostensibly replaced the bun. It was pretty weak and overly oniony.
8th WAGYU BURGER
The Tudor Rose, Coulsdon
Pros: comes with sweet potato fries as standard and onion rings with a side of aioli and a pickle! Cons: the beef was ok. Thick patty but otherwise not especially rich or flavoursome.
