lannarebirth Posted February 29, 2012 Share Posted February 29, 2012 You can't keep a burger thread down, in Chiang Mai. There are so many variables. Location being an important one. For my money I challenge anyone to say they've ever eaten a better burger anywhere, let alone in Chiang Mai than the one that Nicky makes out at The Orchard in Mae Rim. It's both epic and delicious. My best time for finishing one is about 40 minutes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably an English teacher. I agree that Dukes is quite good. 555 She definately acts like one! Good one, but you know who I was referring to.

Well I've no interest in the establishment but there's some great music going on there Sunday afternoons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can appriciate this must be difficult to maintain in a francise. As I said before, hopefully this will sort out over time as I know David is very passionate about his product and has worked hard to build the Dukes name up. I like what Dave says. He says your taste might not recognize quality food but your body will. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ludditeman Posted February 29, 2012 Share Posted February 29, 2012 Not keen on burgers. But if you have 200bht pp try Sunday lunch at G&M Sausages between Bo Sang and Doi Saket. All the German sausage you can eat, plus roast pork joints with crackling, pork in sauces, hot pretzel bread rolls, ice cream, coffee. (Bottled drinks including water at extra cost) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

franco767 Posted May 29, 2012 Share Posted May 29, 2012 Since I started going to Chiang Mai with my family, I have been looking for quality restaurants. The Dukes on the river is very good with David and the owners always coming out to greet everyone as well. Even the Dukes at the night bizarre is quite good, so what happened at this new Dukes burger franchise? The hamburgers are terrible there. I had gone next door to Loco Elvis and wasn't impressed at all either. I read where both of these establishments are owned by the same bone headed owners. Do they have the same cook? The preparation is terrible and taste nothing like the other Dukes in the city. I had read where quite a few people where getting food poisoning from next door. I didn't get sick, but I felt nauseousness for hours after eating there. This Dukes is an embarrassment to the franchise name. We need some more variety of good foreigner food in the city. Unfortunately, from what everyone is saying, this is not it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MartinBKK Posted May 31, 2012 Share Posted May 31, 2012 Tried this place the other day. Very overpriced and not particularly nice tasting. Disappointing. Sent from my GT-N7000B using Thaivisa Connect App Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

daoyai Posted June 24, 2012 Share Posted June 24, 2012 (edited) I like the burger at Gypsie's grill, not as big as what he served at the Rose GH but very good. since the curry war has been won on a technicality, the Fish and chip fued has died down, the sushi snobbery has subsided, it is time to bust out the burgers. I think we are due for burrito banter next followed by pizza punditry. Edited June 24, 2012 by daoyai Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it took me 40 minutes t finish a burger it would be because I had to eat it an didn't like it. If I iked it 10 minutes tops depending on what comes with it.The fries at Ddddukes do prolong the eating timr. but 15 minutes max Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gipsy does do as good of a burger as anyone but he does such a great job on traditional German fare (currywurst, bratwurst, nurnburger sausages, etc) that the burgers get overshadowed.
