Some associates had been drooling over the burgers that they had been making ready at dwelling. They had bought some comfortable, sesame seed topped buns, and ordered pork patties from Meatigo.
I started dreaming about this: creamy mayo slathered over a bit of bun, onion rings, maybe a slice of tomato over it. A juicy patty on that, a crisp lettuce leaf and one other comfortable bun on high.
The downside was that we didn’t have any buns, and it was too late to have them delivered.
But burgers had been promised to 2 younger folks at dwelling — one visiting Delhi for the primary time. So, I turned to my good pal, the web, and chanced upon a spot known as Boss Burger.
I favored the completely different sorts of burgers it supplied, and was additional inspired by the truth that it has branches throughout town. With the assistance of Swiggy, we positioned our order.
The kids like rooster, so for them we requested for 2 OG Chicken Burgers (₹518 for 2). They are additionally keen on scorching meals, so we added a Crispy Peri Peri Chicken Burger (₹299). A Crispy Fish Fillet Burger (₹349) and what appeared slightly fascinating — a Mutton Ghee Roast Burger (₹369).
The burgers arrived simply when the mice within the abdomen had began kicking up an actual shindy. The bins have been encouraging — sturdy, nicely packed cartons, which contained the burger, in addition to sauces and napkins. Without a lot ado, we bought all the way down to enterprise.
The younger ones have been proud of their burgers — brioche wrapped round melted cheese and rooster topped with a scorching sauce. The scorching peri peri rooster was even higher. The rooster and cheese patty had been doused with garlic aioli and a spicy sauce.
The fish fillet burger, which got here with tartar sauce, was disappointing. The patty was crisp from the skin, however sadly soggy inside.
My mutton ghee roast burger, nonetheless, was scrumptious, with its fusion flavours. The patty had been ready within the Mangalorean fashion — gradual cooked after which garnished with curry leaf flavoured mayo.
It had a style of soppy onions that I actually favored, and, general, the patty cooked with Indian spices went slightly nicely with the comfortable, bland buns.
My final comfortable burger meal was once I had ordered in from Aku’s, which has some excellent burgers with blue cheese, wild mushrooms, jalapenos, caramelized onions and extra.
Boss Burger’s menu is complete, too. For vegetarians, it affords Aloo Rataloo (candy potato patty with mozzarella cheese, garlic aioli and chutney), Spicy BBQ Paneer, Quinoa & Veggie (quinoa-crusted roasted root vegetable patty, topped with sriracha mayo and saunth chutney) and Holy Guacamole! Black Bean Burger.
Meat lovers can have its Truffled 3 Cheese Tenderloin Burger (grilled tenderloin and cheese patty, topped with truffled aioli and pickles, served in a sesame brioche bun) and a Chicken Tikka Burger. There are fries, rooster nuggets, wings and numerous sorts of shakes on the menu.
All in all, we had a pleasant meal, certainly. But now I have to order in some buns and patties. Nothing like a DIY burger.
