Amour de Burger har stängt sin verksamhet.

Amour de Burger ligger centralt i Paris, i närheten av den klassiska operan. Stället ser ut och låter lite som vilken fransk bistro som helst, men genom dörrarna känner man istället bekanta dofter av friterat och grillat. Vi anlände sent på eftermiddagen och möttes av en tom lokal och ägaren som gärna skröt om sin cheesecake. Vi ville dock ha en klassisk ost- och baconburgare, men döm av vår förvåning när kocken sade att de inte serverar någon bacon alls.

Han erbjöd istället ett ägg, så en kort stund senare anlände alltså en ostburgare med ett vändstekt ägg mellan ett riktigt stort och matigt bröd. Kanske trodde kocken att vi var ute efter en frukostmacka? Brödet var mer av frukostslaget men konstigt nog fungerade det bra då det var smakfullt och mjukt. Den stora köttpucken hade en bra konsistens och var rivigt pepprig. Dressingen var av ett syrligt kontinentalt stuk som gifte sig med det salta ägget. Till detta serverades en stor tallrik pommes frites av det grövre slaget och som var mycket smakrika.

Överkomliga priser och goda råvaror (trots avsaknaden av bacon) gör Amour de Burger till ett trevligt alternativ för den som är rejält hungrig i centrala Paris.

In English

Located near the classic Paris Opera, Amour de Burgers looks like any French bistro in the capital city. But the aromas from their grill and fryer is a dead giveaway, and we happily tried to order a bacon and cheeseburger. However, they don’t have bacon and were offered an egg and cheeseburger instead. This, together with the large and fluffy bun, made the burger feel more like a breakfast roll than anything else. But the flavours were there, and at the end of the meal we were suitably full up and quite satisfied with the choice of ingredients. We guess it just goes to show that in France, one egg is un oeuf.

🇸🇪 @thellas_foodtruck ★★★★☆

Thellas is a food truck in Gävle that we’ve heard a lot of positive things about since they opened in 2024. The menu at the time of our visit consisted of four beef burgers and a vegetarian option. We chose the classic ”Thellas Cheese” cheeseburger with double burger cheese, silver onions, dill pickles, ketchup, mustard and mayonnaise. A single patty burger cost 115 SEK (12.5 USD), but we ordered a double 120-gram patty burger with for 145 SEK (15.5 USD) and also added 30 SEK (3 USD) for french fries and 15 SEK (1.5 USD) for a chili mayo.

There was a long line of people waiting for their food, and when the burger was served we were greeted by a well-composed and inviting cheeseburger. The first bite was incredibly flavourful and juicy, with a very clear crust on the patties. The beef was well-seasoned with a generous amount of coarsely ground black pepper. And the creamy cheese was delicious and nicely melted over the beef. Unfortunately, the bun was a bit of a disappointment, because despite looking good, it had been toasted for too long on the grill and lacked the fluffy texture we expect from a brioche bun. Their own-pickled cucumber was delicious and added both acidity and crunch, and we would have liked to see more of it so that it was spread over the entire burger. All the sauces did their job without standing out and were also in the right amount, without any one of them overpowering the others. We also liked the generous portion of crispy french fries, and the smoky chilli mayo was tasty – although it could have been a bit spicier.

Thellas undoubtedly serve one of the better burgers we’ve eaten in Gävle, and the service from the guys in the food truck was excellent as well. We definitely recommend keeping an eye on their schedule and visiting them if you’re in the area.
