About The Competition
We took the 12 winners of our Burger Wars series and seeded them so they could not meet another winner in Round One of The Beijinger Burger Cup. We then added the 12 losers and another eight wildcards into the mix to make an initial batch of 32 burgers. The first round will leave 16 burgers facing off against each other, then there will be eight remaining, then a semi-final before a final matchup sees you decide which is the best burger in town.

Let's Burger, the winner of the 2011 Reader Restaurant Awards and 2011 Expert's Panel for Best Burger, has fallen to runner-up Blue Frog by a narrow margin.

Has the Beijing burger public changed their opinion since that last vote in March?

More importantly, where were they for Hollywood in the first round?
