Det som booyade så bra

När vi recenserade Booya! – eller Booya Burger Business som de också kallar sig – under sommaren 2020 så var de relativt nyöppnade, och vi ansåg då att den lilla burgarrestaurangen i centrala Linköping hade fått en ganska bra start. Men det fanns en hel del utrymme för förbättring, och därför var vi väldigt spända inför vårt senaste besök. Döm då av förvåning när allt verkade i princip likadant som sist. Menyn bestod av sju köttburgare, ett par vegetariska burgare och en kycklingvariant, och denna gång föll valet på en dubbel Cheese Nice med 200 gram kött, ost, silverlök, pickles, senap, ketchup och majonnäs samt en dubbel Booya med 200 gram kött, pepperjack-ost, bacon. jalapeños, karamelliserad lök och en jalapeño- och honungsdressing. Under lunchen kostade de 115 kronor styck, inklusive pommes frites och en läsk.

Våra burgare såg ganska inbjudande ut, och våra första tuggor var lovande trots att allting var väldigt mjukt. Cheese Nice var saftig och smakrik, och även om våra pickles var väldigt söta så tillförde de en hel del smak. Booya-burgaren var mer spretig i smakerna, med massor av hetta och många olika ingredienser som slogs om vår uppmärksamhet. Den var god, men föll något på att baconet var alldeles för mjukt och sladdrigt, vilket verkligen var synd då vi hade uppskattat fler kontrasterande texturer i burgaren. Pommes fritesen var inte särskilt inspirerande, och vi tröttnade ganska snabbt på dem.

Visst har Booya förbättrat sig något sedan sist, men inte tillräckligt mycket för att vi ska höja deras betyg. Här får du en smakfylld och prisvärd lunchburgare, men vi hoppades ändå att hamburgarna skulle bjuda på lite mer finess och helhetstänk än såhär i och med restaurangens kaxiga framtoning.

When we first reviewed Booya Burger back in 2020, they were relatively newly opened, and we felt that the small burger restaurant in central Linköping was off to a pretty good start. But there was a lot of room for improvement, which was why we were very curious when we visited them again. So we were a bit surprised that everything seemed basically the same as last time when we arrived. The menu consisted of seven meat burgers, a couple of vegetarian versions and a chicken option, and this time we ordered a double Cheese Nice with 200 grams of beef, cheese, white onions, pickles, ketchup, mustard and mayonnaise and a double Booya with 200 grams of beef, pepper jack cheese, bacon, jalapeños, caramelised onions and a jalapeño and honey sauce. During lunch service they cost 115 SEK (11 USD) each, including french fries and a soft drink.

Our burgers looked quite inviting, and felt promising at first despite being very soft. The Cheese Nice was juicy and flavorful, and our pickles were tasty despite being overly sweet. Our Booya burger packed loads of different flavours, with loads of spicy heat and many different ingredients fighting for our attention. However, it fell slightly short due to the far too soft bacon, which was a real shame as we would have appreciated more contrasting textures. Our fries were not particularly inspiring, and we grew tired of them pretty quickly.

Booya may have improved slightly since the last time we tried them, but this wasn’t enough for us to raise their grade. Sure, they still serve a tasty and relatively cheap lunch burger, but we were still hoping for a bit more finesse given their cool and cocky style.

Recension från 09 september 2020

Recension skriven av Toby Lee

Booya! Burger Business öppnade i början av sommaren 2020 i centrala Linköping. I den fräscha lokalen serveras nio olika burgare, varav sju av dem med högrev (som dessutom kan bytas ut mot svensk grillost). Vi beställde en Mother Bacon med honungsmarinerat bacon, cheddar, tomat, rödlök, sallad och majonnäs för 105 kronor. Vi beställde även deras sötpotatispommesfrites för 35 kronor samt en Side Deluxe (pommes frites med smält cheddar, burgardressing, bacon, silverlök, tomat och jalapeños) för ytterligare 45 kronor.

Det första vi slogs av var det snygga och härligt uppvärmda brödet. Det såg ut som ett briochebröd på utsidan, men visade sig vara mer som ett lite torrt vetebröd. Köttet var tyvärr rätt platt och alldeles för finmalet, vilket ledde till att det varken var saftigt eller särskilt smakrikt. Det kändes även ganska litet och hade svårt att ta plats mot med de andra ingredienserna. Baconet var väldigt mjukt, men smakade gott och lite sött. De andra ingredienserna var bra, men det fanns inget som egentligen stack ut. Sötpotatispommesfritesen var goda och krispiga, men måltidens höjdpunkt var helt klart deras Side Deluxe. Den var verkligen fullastad med ingredienser, och baconet, osten och de heta jalapeñosarna lyfte verkligen rätten!

Booya! Burger Business har fått en bra start och serverar en klart godkänd burgare. Vi hoppas att de fortsätter att utvecklas och förbättra sitt koncept med tiden, för det finns ändå en hel del utrymme för förbättring.

Booya! Burger Business opened in the centre of the Swedish city of Linköping in the beginning of summer 2020. The nicely decorated restaurant serves 9 different burgers, including 7 with chuck patties (which can be replaced with a Swedish halloumi style cheese). We ordered a Mother Bacon with honey marinated bacon, cheddar, tomatoes, red onions, lettuce and mayo for 105 SEK (12 USD). We also ordered their sweet potato fries for 35 SEK (4 USD) and a Side Deluxe (fries with melted cheddar, burger sauce, bacon, white onions, tomatoes and jalapeños) for 45 SEK (5 USD).

The first thing we noticed was the really good looking and nicely toasted bun. It looked like a brioche bun, but turned out to be more of a slightly dry wheat roll. The patty was quite flat and the beef was too finely ground, which resulted in it being quite dry and not very tasty. Since it was also rather small, it couldn’t really stand out against the other ingredients either. The bacon was very soft, but had a nice and sligthly sweet taste. The other components were fine, but nothing really stood out. The sweet potato fries were crispy and tasted great, but the highlight of our meal was their Side Deluxe. It was filled to the brim with great flavours, and the bacon, cheese and spicy jalapeños really made it shine!

Booya! Burger Business are off to a good start, and serve a decent burger. And we look forward to seeing them continue to develop their concept over time, seeing as there’s plenty of room for improvement.

🍔 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.
