Most of them are average or contain condiments/onions making them impenetrable (I like onions but they absolutely overwhelm a burger), but there are two sources of burgers that are in my top 10 foodstuffs of all time*, and as such I have to score them highly.
*Patty and Bun, Paul’s burger van that used to serve burgers at the Longmead (he was a true master of the craft)
Feels like we as a society have just about moved past burgers that are essentially vertical kebabs, where there’s a stick holding it together and there are onion rings and sausages and a birthday cake or something on top of the actual burger.
Will never go to Byron again for ethical reasons but it’s nice that more effort is being made to make vegan burgers more than just a portobello mushroom in a bun. That said I recently had a vegan burger that was just really tightly compacted nuts. It was not good.
