Having an ordinary burger just isn’t an option these days, as the fast-food hacking trend
– combining burgers in high-street chains to create your own mega version – proves. As
round four of the London Burger Bash
(youngandfoodish.com)
aims to establish the
capital’s best meat feast, we’ve scoured the network for some novel flavour combos.

PIMP YOUR MEAL
Bun times
Brioche buns are standard
for any self-respecting
burger pimper. Blend in Paris
does some of the best.

Posh nosh
Madrid’s Michelin-starred
Ramón Freixa serves a
duck hamburger with
green mustard ice-cream.

Sweet treat
Yes, it’s possibly a heart
attack on a plate, but
the glazed donut bacon
cheeseburger at Ed’s Diner
in Birmingham sounds fab.

Double dairy
Forget healthy half-measures:
at Budapest’s Magic Burger
you can have cheese inside
the patty as well as on top.

Fruit and nut
Peanut butter and
banana might sound an
unusual combo, but
patrons at Mad Mick
(13 Warszawska, Katowice)
can’t get enough.
Meating point
Berlin’s most exciting
patties are served in a former
public loo. Once you’ve
tried Burgermeister’s chilli
burger, there’s no going back.

Super sauce
Ketchup is strictly for
amateurs. At Tommi’s
Burger Joint in London, it’s
all about béarnaise sauce.
