corkscrew Posted June 29, 2009 Share Posted June 29, 2009 There is a super burger place in All Seasons (Ruam Rudi). It is called The Garage and serves a dozen or so different kinds of burgers. Last night I had a lamb burger with a chicken breast. This is one of the restaurants that is found on Chef XP (Internet order, home delivery).

Last night I had a lamb burger with a chicken breast. This is one of the restaurants that is found on Chef XP (Internet order, home delivery). you can see from the photo that the burger comes with a slice of cheap processed cheddar cheese. and the lamb patty looks burnt! I have seen much better burgers than this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jaapfries Posted June 30, 2009 Share Posted June 30, 2009 (edited) The Burgers at Bedrock in Ban Phe are very good, especially with real Aussie beetroot. Whereas one chap is mixing-up his words by trying to think of the phrase "Contradiction-In-Terms" here's another diluted individual, who associates BEETROOT with "A GREAT BURGER" . . . . . . Ugh ! In Aussie & K1W1 lands, you know a bit about Rugby and Cricket, but PLEASE, don't confuse the exact science of Great Burgers with the hapless attempts of the latter in your countries ! ! ! I shall never forget my first "Hamburger" in N.Z.; purchased from a "Take-Away-Shop" (another yakki phenomena !). On the large menu-board, a wide choice of "burgers" was featured.So; being very hungry (NO; not bloody "peckish" ! !) I ordered a Bacon, Mushroom and Cheese Burger. Once I got outside (it is expected to consume your "prize" while walking around on the sidewalk, preferably in your 'walking-shorts' (again: yakki !) and took the first bite, I noticed straight away that they had forgotten the main ingredient, namely the patty of meat; i.e. THE BURGER in the Hamburger . . . . I walked back into the shop and explained my problem to them. "Oh; if you want a meat-patty in your burger, it will be charged as an EXTRA ? ? ? ? ? ? ? So; c'mon Aussies & Kiwis; stick to the stuff you know and know this: sticking BEETROOT into a HAMBURGER is pure sacriledge ! ! In the US and Canada, the mere suggestion of this insane practice will get you instantly shot ! And rightfully so, because you will be known as HAMBURGER-TERRORIST ! !

Curt1591 Posted June 30, 2009 Share Posted June 30, 2009 There's also The Garage" at Centralworld. I've been meaning to give them a try. Indeed, Aussie burgers are a bit different. I remember a corner shop in Bondi that sold chips and a burger called "The Lot". It had all sorts of fixin's, including an egg, sunny side up, and beetroot. I went for the fries, but couldn't bring myself to try the burger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry, I'm a big, fat, red blooded American and I very much enjoy beetroot on a burger. Don't argue about it, try it, It is good. I can remember the first time I heard of putting pineapple on pizza ond the idea sounded repulsive, but the real thing was quite delish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gazz Posted July 1, 2009 Share Posted July 1, 2009 Another burger thread. Sigh.I thnk it's time to open a foie gras discussion. The French--at least in the South Pacific islands--have a way of serving up a burger like no other: They don't use simple ground beuf of course, but steak! Yaass real steak, fried to perfection and cut in small bite size bits, layered into a baguette with Dijon, mayo, onion if you like, AND, get this, French fries!!!! YES, your fries, your meat and trimmings all come nicely packed in a baguette ready to chow down. Positively delicious of course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To suggest that people who live in Thailand should eat only Thai food is clearly absurd. That said, to my mind the only sacrilege committed by the OP is to drink Wine - any Wine - with a Hamburger!
