Hella word. Although tonight I'm just going for a simple McDonald's, because that's just about what my poor student rear end can afford right now.

McDonald's in Hong Kong isn't very different from its US counterpart, except that you can get it delivered and they have a few unique choices for Lunar New Year, such as Prosperity Beef Burger, Prosperity Chicken Burger... It's still just fast food, though.

It's good for a student on a budget, and as I am now the owner of 20 bottles of different hot sauces, thanks to a generous Secret Santa, it makes a good test platform for comparisons.


Here's a lovely pic of a McDonald's burger with some green hot sauce:

Prosperity Burger: A beef patty with a fairly strong black pepper sauce, covered in chopped onions. It's messy, because the sauce is thick, but it's tasty.

I love how Korea gives no shits about copyright. I used to frequent the "Kenny G Bar" that was in no way affiliated with the God of Sax. But had his pictures and poo poo everywhere.

The perm place called Pama, that had a puma logo with a perm.

Ripoffs of everything on the planet.

gently caress I miss Asia.

Korean McDonald's was legit. Lotteria and Burger King sucked. That was really it for eating burgs out when I was there. I did find a dude selling wagu beef when I was there for super cheep, and I made burgs with that sometimes.

Highly recommend waking and baking you guys.

I've actually been on a huge sandwich with a ton of veggies kick lately. For lunch at work ive had subs consisting entirely of lettuce/tomato/pepper/onion/cucumber/hot peppers and oil/vin w salt and pepper.

Basically a salad in a wheat roll, except it has enough calories to qualify as a meal.

Thats my story.

I do something similar but if I'm not putting meat in it I go with a wrap and a very light amount of dressing. Also usually a bit of shredded cheese. I live where I work so it's a great refreshing lunch after I walk back to my apartment that's quick enough to leave most of my lunch hour for napping or watching some TV. I have also burg'd during lunch but only if I got lazy and bought pre-made patties or already mixed up the meat and stuff to smush my own patties together. I've got no roomates so when I cook burgs I usually just use it patty by patty from a sealed tupperware container over about two days. Electric griddles are the poo poo when you can't have a grill.

I'm thinking of switching to a wrap but idk if it would be as filling. One thing im noticing is that by the time i get to the office with my sandwich, the oil/vin can wreck the bread.

There is an easy protip around this for both takeout and deliv, tho. Oil/vinegar are always to be on the side. I just started going to the subway near me when i decided i wanted only veggies in a sub because for $5 its going to be 3 dollars cheaper than anything else local for the same.

But i dont think they have rammekans to put that poo poo in. I should ask next time i go.

so Thursday is my day to make dinner and I've been scheming on how to make a new burg

stick with me

what do you think about say a half pound patty on a toasted bun with a dollop of beanless chilli over it with a hearty slice of mozzarella on top?

maybe a even a spoonful of guac with it?

That sounds good. Guacamole would be a good contrast with the chili.

I dont think the taste would be bad necessarily but i think from a texture standpoint it would be kinda strange.

Also, the chili and guac are likely to be two muted flavors unless you go really far out of your way. In which case, you should enjoy the chili on its own merit probably.

I don't think the mozzarella works here either. In a way you kind of made some sort of 'south western burg' but the way i read it its all too muted.

I might consider putting some cumin in the meat and using some mexi blend or asadero cheese and going for almost a burger taco type deal. Youll need some dominant flavors to combat the subdued nature of avacado and how i envision the chili

:shrug: youre on the right track to a new burger anyway, the idea has some drat good potential imo

E; this could even possibly be solved with some onions grilled in cumin and like..5% cilantro taste for just the occasional taste of it to bite out at you

I dunno, im just spit ballin but now i really want to design a decent mexiburg

GET MY BELT SON
Sep 26, 2007

I really like the idea of maybe mixing in some taco seasonings with the meat

good call there

so maybe nix the chilli and just go all out taco style with guacamole, maybe even a light addition of salsa and a nice blended cheese

This idea is related though separate from trouts situation, i just imagined a bit of chili relleno on top of a burg :stare:

E: if it was my burg instead of salsa i would grab some tomato and onion and soak them in vinegar for a day with some salt and pepper.

Still apply a small amount of cilantro/coriander AFTER youve removed the onion/tomato.

Keep the extra onion and tomato in the vinegar an extra day and serve as a side salad to a steak

And welcome to Argentina

The Wu Tang burger from earlier uses Kewpie Mayo, whihc is a japanese style. It's, like, less thick, and has a different flavor.

I'm usually not a big mayo fan, but that's a good burger, so I guess the proof's in the pudding/

I've definitely been to several unaffiliated bars all named Woodstock in Korea, all with various flavors of classic rock decor.

I like Lotteria, but not for their actual beef burgers. Their shrimp burgers owned. MOS Burger (Japanese chain) also made a good shrimp burger, but their regular beef(? maybe pork) burgers had this weird blended meat texture. Not really sure how to describe it but it was eerily soft.
