PORIRUA'S HOTTEST NEW BURGER JOINT

There’s a new delicious lunch option at North City and you know it’s going to be good, because what’s more tempting than a burger and fries? But this is not your typical burger joint; Burger Burglar has got a range of gourmet options which are all made fresh to order.

I will have to start with the fact that there are six different loaded fries you can choose from and they all look great. If you have never had loaded fries, they are hot and crispy fries piled up with loads of delicious toppings. Burger Burglar has some very nice lookin’ ones, such as satay and crispy onion fries, pulled pork fries, chili cheese fries, and more!  A satisfying dish or great to share.

There’s also a fun theme which runs right through –  from the name Burger Burglar, to the decor, to the names of the menu items. This place serves up fare fit for outlaws, vigilantes and runaways. Here are my top 3 burger names and their fillings: Bonnie & Clyde –  Grilled chicken, salad, guacamole, jalapenos and chipotle mayo; Jail Break –  Flambe beef, bacon, grilled egg, beetroot relish and cheese melt, and Meat thief –  Vegetarian bubble and squeak patty.

I stopped by and put them to the test. I chose the Meat Thief, and it didn’t disappoint. The patty was flavoursome, and the bun was fluffy and lightly toasted – perfect! As a severe chipoholic, I also went for a side of fries. The ‘crunchy cut chips’ as they call them, were precisely that – crunchy! There was a decent portion, and they were nice and hot.

• There are all day breakfast burgers which contain the old brekky favourites: egg, bacon and hash browns. Ye-um!
• You can choose a low-carb lettuce bun option if you would prefer, and still enjoy the tasty toppings.
• They have a fantastic range of sauces! How about chipotle mayo, wasabi mayo, or herb aioli?

With friendly and fast service, Burger Burglar is definitely worth heading over to try. Keep it in mind when you next feel the hunger pangs or a craving the perfect burger!
