Seeking Burger Inspiration? Follow Weibo Star Dare Girl as She Tries 9 Beijing Burgers
With less than a week to go until voting starts in the Burger Cup we're sure you're itching to get out there and try as many burgers as possible. To give you some inspiration for your burger explorations, we dared Weibo and WeChat star 敢姑娘 (gǎn gūniáng, Dare Girl) to venture out and try nine of Beijing's biggest, best, and wackiest burgers. Of course, no-one could resist a challenge like that and you can see the results of her burger tasting in the video below.
Below is a full list of all the restaurants and burgers she visits and tries:
- High Town's spicy hamburger
- The Granary Bar and Bistro's prawn-topped burger
- Uburger's all-meat burger
- Cannon's double deluxe cheeseburger
- Home Plate BBQ's "three the hard way" burger
- Fatboy's "the bigger fish" burger
- Q Mex's double burger
- Burger Break's avocado cheeseburger
- Vsport's extra large burger
If that got your mouth watering for some delicious burger action, don't worry, as you'll be able to hold your very own tasting at the 2017 Burger Cup on May 20-21, 11am-8pm at Galaxy Soho. More than 20 vendors, including some featured in the video, have currently been confirmed for our Wild West-themed burger fest as well as a number of drinks vendors to help you wash down all those patties and buns. There'll also be performances, activities fit for all the family, and a number of booths dedicated to Beijing life.
