Munchies

Munchies har två restauranger i Oslo; den ena centralt och den andra på hippa Thorvald Meyers Gate precis norr om centrum. Inredningen är spartansk i skandinavisk stil, och menyn lockar med en handfull olika burgare för cirka hundra norska kronor – stiligt uppradade på en upplyst skylt ovanför kassan.

Valet faller på en Classic för 106 norska kronor med sallad, tomat, rödlök, cheddar och dressing, samt en påse pommes frites för ytterligare 38 norska kronor. Det är helt klart humana priser – vi är ju trots allt i Norge.

När burgaren väl kommer in grusas tyvärr våra förhoppningar om en fantastisk upplevelse. Det sesamprydda brödet är torrt och alldeles för bred för köttpucken, som ligger dold i mitten. Och trots att köttet är mjukt mediumstekt smakar det inte särskilt mycket alls, och det är smakerna från den oinspirerade dressingen som får ta täten här.

Pommes fritesen är krispigt friterade och snyggt serverade i en papperspåse, men de smakar nästan ingenting då de knappt har saltats. Och utan salt på bordet får vi än en gång förlita oss på ketchup som måltidens smaksättare.

Inga av komponenterna på Munchies imponerar, och det mest positiva med besöket är deras ölutbud med godbitar från bland annat Kona Brewery.

With two locations in central Oslo, Munchies have become quite popular in the Norwegian capital. They’re quite decently priced, and the sleek Scandinavian interiors suit their theme well. Unfortunately the burger itself doesn’t impress us at all, with a far too large sesame bun that’s dry and unroasted. The patty itself is cooked to a nice medium, but could do with some seasoning. The fries, although nicely deep-fried and stylishly served in a paper bag, were hardly salted at all. The only thing that really impressed us was their beer selection.

🍔 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.
