Fårskräckligt tråkiga burgare

Woolshed är en australisk restaurang belägen i centrala Helsingfors. Den stora lokalen är inredd med rustika möbler, mängder med tv-apparater som visar sport från andra sidan världen samt en hel del verktyg associerade med fårskötsel. Det sistnämnda gav oss mer skräckfilmsvibbar än trivsel, men vi förstår ändå tanken med temat. Personalen stod i baren och hängde med sina kompisar när vi kom in och mottagandet kändes disträ – det är aldrig kul att komma in på en restaurang och känna att man stör.

Woolsheds webbplats visar stolt upp stolta burgaren, och allt deras kött är importerat ända från Australien. Vi höll tummarna för att burgarna skulle väga upp för personalens ointresse och de otäcka krokarna på väggarna, tyvärr var deras Classic Beef Burger (med ost, majonnäs, stekt lök, tomat, sallad och inlagd gurka) jättetråkig. Köttet var hårt, ingredienserna hade olika temperatur – köttet, osten och löken var varma medan resten var kylskåpskallt – och den stora gurkbiten var bara i vägen.

Brödet var okej, och vi gillade både osten och löken, men resten av måltiden kändes mest tråkig. Det finns betydligt bättre burgare i Helsingfors så om du inte är jätteintresserad av att titta på rugby eller fårklippningsredskap finns det egentligen ingen anledning att besöka Woolshed.

In English

Woolshed is an australian restaurant located close to the center of Helsinki. It’s a sports bar, but relating to the name it also has a kinda weird sheep shearing theme with a lot of tools on the walls. The meat is imported from Australia and it’s obvious they are proud of their food – especially the burgers. Unfortunately both the food and the service fell short. The meat was compact and chewy, and didn’t taste much. The greens were ice-cold and the big pickled cucumber was mostly just in the way. The bread was ok and the cheese and the fried onions were tasty, but that doesn’t make up for much. There are way better burgers in Helsinki, so unless you really like rugby – or scary sheep shearing tools – there is no real point in visiting Woolshed.

🍔 Review № 1381

🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 @black_bear_burger ★★★★☆

Black Bear Burger is one of the veterans of the modern burger wave in England, and we have tried their burgers several times since our first review in 2017. Over the years, Black Bear Burger has received more and more attention and hype, both domestically and internationally, and today they are one of the most well-known burger restaurants in all of England. They have locations at nearly 10 places around London, and we visited their restaurant inside the Market Halls Victoria food hall and ordered their Double Miso Bacon Burger – the same burger that won them the National Burger of the Year 2025 award. The burger contained double patties, double cheese, smoked bacon and their miso butter mayo, and it cost 15.8 GBP (21 USD).

The burger looked exactly as we remembered it, with pre-formed patties and a pale bun covered in a generous layer of sesame seeds. The bun was soft and fluffy, but just like on our previous visits, we felt that the crust-like amount of sesame seeds took over both in terms of flavour and texture. The meat was of high quality as always and had a nice and potent dry-aged character that they are known for. The meat could have been juicier though, as it felt a bit too compact this time. The bacon was super tasty and crispy, just the way we like it, and the onion also contributed a nice texture. Their miso butter mayo was very flavourful with its buttery, salty, and umami-rich taste, but together with the bacon and the beef, the overall flavour profile was a bit too salty. We would have liked to see some kind of freshness to break up the saltiness for a more complete experience.

We are very happy that a veteran like Black Bear Burger continues to deliver high-quality burgers year after year, and they are still a safe bet when you are craving a really good burger in London.
