Burgarscenen i Seoul har fullständigt exploderat de senaste åren, och på många sätt känns Onestar Old Fashioned Hamburgers som en motreaktion till stadens alla trendiga burgarrestauranger. Vi besökte deras originalrestaurang i det exklusiva området Dogok, och slogs direkt av den nostalgiska, amerikaniserade 70-talsinredningen som genomsyrade allt från menyn till bilderna på väggarna. Alla burgare var väldigt rimligt prisatta och innehöll bara några få ingredienser. Vi beställde deras Cheeseburger med en 170-gramsköttpuck, ost, rödlök och pickles för 8800 won (55 kronor), samt en Patty Melt med kött, ost, karamelliserad lök och en stor pickle på sidan för 11800 won (75 kronor). Vi uppgraderade även till en meny med sötpotatispommesfrites och en läsk för 8200 won (50 kronor).

Burgarna presenterades prydligt och enkelt på porslinsfat, och vi såg direkt att de var omsorgsfullt monterade. Cheeseburgaren var omsluten av en tajt virad pappersficka som höll ihop allt exemplariskt. Brödet var mjukt, välrostat och höll sig i bakgrunden för att lyfta fram köttsmaken från den stora köttpucken. Köttet var väldigt saftigt och luftigt, vilket gjorde det till ett nöje att äta. Lite mer salt och peppar hade gjort den ännu bättre, men grundsmaken var ändå djup och köttig. Löken och dillpicklesen gjorde ett bra jobb med att bryta av både smakerna och texturerna, och gjorde helheten mer levande. Vår Patty Melt serverades delad och hade en medium rare-stekgrad, som gjorde den till en riktig home run tack vare det hårt rostade rågbrödet och den söta karamelliserade löken. Här kändes allt perfekt avvägt, och vi diggade verkligen den väldigt simpla approachen de hade valt. Sötpotatispommesen vi beställde till var också riktigt smarriga, med en tydlig smak av sötpotatisen och en rejäl krispighet som gjorde dem svåra att sluta äta.

Onestar Old Fashioned Hamburgers serverar Sydkoreas bästa burgare, och du borde verkligen unna dig ett besök nästa gång du är i Seoul.

The burger scene in Seoul has completely exploded in the last few years, and in many ways Onestar Old Fashioned Hamburgers feels like a reaction against the city’s many trendy burger restaurants. We visited their original restaurant in the upscale Dogok area, and were immediately struck by the nostalgic, Americanised 70s-style decor that permeated everything from the menu to the pictures on the walls. All the burgers were very reasonably priced and contained only a few ingredients. We ordered their Cheeseburger with a 170-gram beef patty, cheese, red onions and pickles for 8,800 won (6 USD), as well as a Patty Melt with beef, cheese, caramelised onions and a large pickle on the side for 11,800 won (8 USD). We also upgraded to a sweet potato fries menu and a soda for 8,200 won (5.5 USD).

Our burgers were presented neatly and simply on porcelain plates, and we could immediately see that they were carefully assembled. The cheeseburger was wrapped in a tight paper pocket that held everything together perfectly. The bun was soft, well-toasted and kept in the background to let the beef flavour from the large beef patty shine through. The beef was very juicy and airy, making it a pleasure to eat. A bit more salt and pepper would have made it even better, but the basic flavour was still deep and meaty. The onions and dill pickles did a great job of breaking up both the flavours and textures, and made the whole thing more lively. Our Patty Melt was served split and was cooked medium rare, which made it a real home run thanks to the crispy rye bread and the sweet caramelised onions. Everything was perfectly balanced here, and we really enjoyed the very simple approach they had chosen. The sweet potato fries we ordered to go with it were also really delicious, with a clear sweet potato flavour and a nice crunch that made them hard to stop eating.

Onestar Old Fashioned Hamburgers serves the best burgers in South Korea, and you should definitely treat yourself to a visit next time you’re in Seoul.

🍔 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.
