MY BURGER WEEKLY REPORT

REMEMBER LAST TIME WHEN I SAID IM IN LOVE WITH BURGER?
IM SERIOUS ABOUT IT!

That’s why I put burger on my weekly list. Me and Fefe did a lot of Burger hunting in Shanghai during this summer, preferably those with promo (like buy 1 get 1) or the cheap with good rating one.

We use this application called 大众点评, it’s a chinese application which you can search for restaurants and nice places to hangout in China. You can see all the review, even pictures of the restaurants, foods, menu, and the bills. But since this application is in chinese, if you prefer to read the english version, I recommend you to try BonApp.
​
Okay, without further explanation, let’s get into my burger adventure.

1. WHITE CASTLE

Located in the downtown area, this restaurant is easy to find and it's close to the subway station.
Unlike the other burger, they got a super mini burger which cost super cheap. (Around 15-20 rmb)

So since we don’t wanna order two burgers, instead we order different kind of french fries (which still make me hungry, actually). HAHA

I ordered bacon and egg cheeseburger, and my friends ordered peking duck slider.
.

I think this burger is so simple and tasty. But yes, again, too small.
​
Overall, I will give this mini burger 7/10. And If I’m pretty broke and craving for good burger one day, well, I will consider to come again to this place for sure.

       2. MUST GRILL

I was recommended by my friend (who is a burger freak) about this place, and since they have buy one get one promo every tuesday, I decided to give it a try. Me, Fefe, Evinie, and Larissa (@chubbytraveller) came here with a super hungry tummy after work. We ordered 4 different burgers and share it together (price around rmb 80-100).


We ordered:

1. MUST Burger - the classic one, it tasted okay, but we thought that they don’t give enough sauce on it
2. American Dream - If you love BBQ sauce, this burger would be perfect for you
3. Baa Baa - this is my favorite, they put salsa sauce which make it rich of onion flavour (I LOVE ONION, DONT BLAME ME)
4. Mexican burger - I will put this burger on my bottom list, it tasted almost like the MUST burger with different sauce, but it’s too dry and tasted so-so.

I will give these burgers 6/10, but 9/10 for the french fries! Honestly, they have the best french fries in town! The seasoning was on point and we like it a lot.
​
I think this place is more well-known for their steak and wine. I should have admit that they don't really put the combination of the burgers really well, but they got a really nice medium rare beef steak. So next time when I come here I will make sure to order their steak instead of the burger.

     3. Bistro Burger
​
​This restaurant is famous with their 15 minutes burger challenge. I have heard about this place so many times, so some weeks ago me and Fefe got to come and try.

I ordered Argentine Gaucho Beef Burger and Fefe ordered Truffle & Brie Beef Burger (price are around 80 to 90).

Personally, I love my burger so much. Inside, they have chorizo and chimichurri, which make my burger tasted a bit like the combination of burger and taco.

I will give this burger 8/10, and since they have buy one get one promo every monday, I will come again sometimes on monday in the future. HEHE
