Making Lamb burgers with fresh mint and paprika tonight. Salt, onions, albumen, and a dusting of flour too, of course.

Five Guys and Byron do the best burgers.

I only go to McD with those £1.99 coupons they have in the Metro paper. I do like the Big Tasty and the Tastes of the World/USA range.

The best in town is Fat Hippo in Jesmond, Newcastle (with sister outlet, Hippo Underground, in town).

I strongly recommend it to any of the North East GRcaders.

http://www.fat-hippo.co.uk/

On request, they served me a Fat Hippo burger (Burger, bacon, chorizo, cheese, caramelized onions and in-house bespoke sauce) in a cronut (croissant/donut cross). I only managed 3/4 of it, but holy shitballs it was heavenly.

Oh, and as a starter they do deep-fried Gherkins. I don't even like Gherkins that much, but they're immense.

strawberry float it, I might have to go this weekend.

Oh my! I think the North-East contingent of GRcade needs to meet up there!

I'd be up for that. Though we might need some other people too, otherwise it's just a date. :lol:

Bit of a curveball recommendation, but there is a market behind the Royal Festival Hall on the South Bank where there is a stall called 'The Frenchie' selling Duck Confit burgers. If you're ever around there, give it a try. Really, really good.

Just focus on the image on the blackboard, that's exactly what they end up looking like.

I think the blue or goats cheese would be a bit rich for my tastes, but you can't what a big sweet bun full of buttery duck. :datass:

Damn right. You were nearly crying with happiness. Plus the coctails are cool. And they offer Irn-Bru as a soft drink!

OMG what is on those chips WHAT IS ON THOSE CHIPS I MUST KNOW RIGHT NOW.

PostRe: Burgers by **False** » Tue Sep 16, 2014 4:46 pm

Those chips were divine. Normal and sweet potato (with skins on I think), and bacon rain.

I want to go to there.

Not sure on some of them, but the fries I like to get are a mix of sweet potato and normal potato and have jalapenos, hot sauce, baconnaise, crispy fried onions, and normal fried onions on them. It's called True Romance fries. :lol:

Here's the menu, and they usually have a special burger and a special cocktail each month:

There's a really nice place in Cardiff called The Grazing Shed. Fantastic burgers there, Falsey should be able to verify the quality.

PostRe: Burgers by **Poser** » Tue Sep 16, 2014 4:57 pm

Holy shitballs.

I like the idea of mixing potato and sweet potato fries, and the toppings look/sound amazing.

I'm (predictably) making burgers tonight now. Short on time so just got some big fat rump steak burgers, I have some chorizo and I'm going to melt some mozzarella on top. Served with sweet potato wedges and coleslaw.
