Hälen of Troy

Troys Burger har två restauranger i Oslo och tillagar sina burgare i en träkolsugn. Menyn var kort och koncis, och vi beställde två olika hamburgare. Dels blev det deras husburgare Troy med cheddar, sallad, lök, pickles, jalapeños, dressing och ketchup och dels BBQ-burgaren med Jarlsberg-ost, coleslaw, lökpickles och BBQ-sås. Båda burgarna kostade 164 NOK (150 kronor), och vi uppgraderade dem till menyer med pommes frites och en läsk för totalt 205 NOK (190 kronor) styck.

Burgarna serverades snabbt på vårt bord och hade ett charmigt old school-utseende. Vårt första intryck av brödet var att det kändes ganska stort – särskilt hälen – och var för torrt. Men det hade i alla fall grillats på ganska ordentligt på insidan, vilket skapade en barriär för alla såser. Köttet på 150 gram hade nostalgisk grillad smak som vi uppskattade, men trots detta hade vi ändå önskat mer distinkt smak från köttet och framförallt att texturen hade varit mindre kompakt och tuggig. Vi blev positivt överraskade av hettan från BBQ-burgaren, som främst kom från den smakrika coleslawen. BBQ-såsen var kryddig och lite het också, men var alldeles för söt för att bli en någon favorit. Signaturburgaren var tyvärr riktigt tråkig i smakerna, och här var det bara deras jalapeños som stack ut. Pommes fritesen var välfriterade och krispiga, och uppgraderingen till mixed fries var ett bra val då deras sötpotatispommesfrites var riktigt goda och smakrika.

Troys Burger serverar ganska daterade burgare till ett hyfsat pris (i alla fall för att vara i Oslo). Men det finns många bättre alternativ om du är sugen på en schysst hantverksburgare i Norges huvudstad.

In English

Troys Burger have two restaurants in Oslo and cook their burgers in a charcoal oven. Their menu was short and concise, and we ordered two different burgers. One was their house burger Troy with cheddar, lettuce, onions, pickles, jalapeños, dressing and ketchup and the other was the BBQ burger with Jarlsberg cheese, coleslaw, an onion pickle and BBQ sauce. Both burgers cost 164 NOK (15 USD) each, and we upgraded them to menus with fries and a soft drink for a total of 205 NOK (19 USD) each.

Our burgers were served quickly on our table and had a charming old school look. Our first impression of the bun was that it felt quite large – especially the heel – and too dry. But at least it had been grilled quite well on the inside, which created a barrier for all the sauces. The 150-gram patty had a nostalgic grilled flavour that we appreciated, but despite this we still would have liked more distinct flavour from the meat and, in particular, the texture to be less compact and chewy. We were pleasantly surprised by the heat from the BBQ burger, which came mainly from the flavour packed coleslaw. The BBQ sauce was spicy and a little hot too, but was far too sweet. The signature burger was unfortunately really dull, with only their jalapeños standing out. The fries were well-fried and crispy, and the upgrade to mixed fries was a good choice as their sweet potato fries were really nice and flavourful.

Troys Burger serve pretty dated burgers at a reasonable price-point (for Oslo, at least). But there are many options that are better if you’re in the mood for a decent craft burger in Norway’s capital.

🍔 Review № 1381

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.
