När vi testade Linköping-foodtrucken TK Burgers för första gången under sommaren 2021 så stod de vid Bergs Slussar vid Göta Kanal, men under vårt senaste besök under vinterhalvåret hade de flyttat till ett industriområde i norra Linköping. Men vi är inte oävna till en burgare i ett sjavigt industriområde, och såg verkligen fram emot att se hur de utvecklats sedan sist. Menyn bestod av fyra köttburgare samt en kycklingburgare och en halloumiburgare. Vi beställde två burgare denna gång; en TK med två 130-gramsköttpuckar, ost, bacon, picklad rödlök och tryffelmajonnäs för 115 kronor samt en veckans burgare med en senapsstekt köttpuck à 130 gram, bacon, ost, silverkök och majonnäs för 95 kronor. Vi uppgraderade dessutom till en meny med pommes frites och läsk för ytterligare 25 kronor.

Även denna gång serverades våra burgare i ett klassiskt briochebröd, och det var förvånansvärt lite som hade förändrats sedan vårt första besök. Köttet hade en aningen bättre crust; väl tilltagen och på precis på rätt sida av att vara lätt knaprig. Men köttet hade gärna fått ligga kortare på stekbordet även denna gång, särskilt i vår TK-burgare som var lite torr. Den hade även ganska spretiga smaker från tryffelmajonnäsen och den picklade rödlöken, och även om det mesta var gott så kändes den obalanserad. Veckans burgare var senaspsstekt och hade därmed lite mjukare kött, men hade passat bättre som en dubbelburgare för bättre ratio mellan kött och bröd. Däremot var valet av ingredienser överlägset bättre på denna än på de andra burgarna på menyn, som alla innehöll lite för många olika toppings. Pommes fritesen var välfriterad och smakrik, och det var helt klart värt att uppgradera till en meny.

Vi blev inte golvade av TK Burgers denna gång heller, men burgarna är ändå smakrika och prisvärda – och de är helt klart värda ett besök om du stöter på dem i eller utanför Linköping.

In English

When we first tried the Linköping food truck TK Burgers in the summer of 2021 they stood by the beautiful Bergs Lock’s in Göta Canal, but during our latest wintertime visit they had moved to an industrial estate in the northern parts of Linköping. But we’re always partial to a burger in industrial area, and really looked forward to seeing how they’d evolved. Their menu consisted of four beef burgers, a chicken burger and a halloumi burger. This time we ordered two hamburgers; a TK with double 130-gram beef patties, cheese, bacon, pickled red onions and truffle mayo for 115 SEK (11 USD) plus their weekly special with a single mustard fried 130-gram beef patty, cheese, bacon, white onions and mayo for 95 SEK (9 USD). We also upgraded to menus with french fries and a soft drink for an additional 25 SEK (2.5 USD).

Our burgers came in a classic brioche bun this time around as well, and we were a bit surprised to see that hardly anything had changed this time around. The beef had a slightly better crust though; deep and just of the right side of crunchy. But it could have spent a little less time on the griddle, especially in our TK Burger which was a bit dry. It also had a lot of conflicting flavours from the truffle mayo and pickled red onions, and even though it tasted pretty good it felt unbalanced. Our weekly burger was better with a slightly softer patty thanks to it being mustard fried, but we should have opted for double patties to get a better beef to bun ratio. The choice of ingredients was better here though, especially seeing as most burgers on their menu included a few ingredients too many. Their french fries were well-cooked and tasty, and it was definitely worth upgrading to a menu.

We weren’t blown away by TK Burgers this time either, but they still serve tasty and very decently priced hamburgers that are worth checking out if you happen to find them in or outside of Linköping.

Recension från 16 augusti 2021

Recension skriven av Toby Lee

Den lilla matvagnen TK Burgers brukar stå lite varstans i Linköping, men på somrarna flyttar de en kort bit norrut och står parkerade precis intill vackra Bergs slussar vid Göta kanal. Där serverar de en handfull olika burgare, varav ett vegetariskt och ett veganskt alternativ. Vi beställde in en TK, som innehöll två 130-gramsköttpuckar, cheddar, bacon, picklad rödlök och tryffelmajonnäs. Själva burgaren kostade 110 kronor, och en meny med läsk och pommes frites kostade 135 kronor.

Burgaren serverades i ett klassiskt briochebröd som var fint uppvärmt. De två köttpuckarna var rejält tilltagna – 260 gram totalt – men var tyvärr lite överstekta och ganska krispiga på ytan. De var helt genomstekta och hade gärna fått vara lite mjukare och saftigare på insidan. Förutom ett par tuggiga bitar så smakade de i alla fall gott, och fetthalten i köttet var föredömligt hög. Baconet smakade salt och gott, men var tyvärr ganska hårt och tuggigt. Den picklade rödlöken tillförde rejält med syra, vilket vi uppskattade. Den lättade även upp tryffelmajonnäsen som fanns både i topplocket och i botten, något som hade varit ett problem om den inte hade varit ganska mild.

Överlag så hade vi hoppats på lite mer från TK Burgers. Vi gillade att det var prisvärt och den vackra utsikten över Göta kanal, men de många småmissarna håller dem tillbaka. De är i alla fall helt klart utan större konkurrens i området, och är ändå värda att besöka nästa gång vi är nära Bergs slussar.

The small food wagon TK Burgers can be found in various places around Linköping, but during the summer months they move out by the beautiful Bergs Lock’s in Göta Canal. There they serve a handful of different burgers, including a vegetarian and a vegan option. We ordered a TK, which contained two 130-gram beef patties, cheddar, bacon, pickled red onions and truffle mayo. The burger itself cost 110 SEK (12.5 USD), and a meal with french fries and a soft drink cost 135 SEK (15.5 USD).

The burger came in a classic brioche bun that was nicely toasted on the inside. The double patties were pretty hefty – 260 grams in total – but they were a bit overcooked and pretty crispy on the outside. They were completely cooked through, and we would have liked for them to be a bit softer and juicier on the inside. Apart from a few chewy parts we enjoyed the taste at least, and the fat content was nice and high. The bacon was salty and flavoursome, but was pretty hard and chewy as well. We liked the acidity of the pickled red onions, which really spruced up our meal. It also really cut through the truffle mayo, which could be found both in the top and bottom part of the burger. Thankfully the truffle amounts were pretty well-balanced, so it didn’t overpower our tastebuds either.

We left TK Burgers with a feeling that it really should have been slightly better. The view over Göta Canal was stunning and we liked their low prices, but the many small mistakes really held them back. The best thing they have going for them is that they’re far above the competition nearby, and an obvious choice the next time were close to Berg’s Locks.

🇸🇪 Mother of Wagon ★★★★☆

Mother of Wagon opened by Arboga’s train station in the summer of 2026, and is actually run by the mother of the owner of The Wagon Burgers & Brews in Stockholm. Besides the clever name, they also offered four burgers, all of which could be made vegetarian. We ordered a Cheeseburger with two 100-gram mustard-smashed beef patties, cheddar, onions, pickles, ketchup and dressing in a brioche bun. It cost 130 SEK (14 USD), and we also added fries for 30 SEK (3 USD).

The burger looked really good when it arrived, even if it had been assembled somewhat hastily with a lot of sauce. The flavours worked well, but all that sauce made it a little difficult to eat as the patties kept sliding around. The beef from a local farm in Örebro was generously seasoned and had plenty of flavour. However, it had been slightly overworked and was a bit too compact, and we would’ve preferred a more airy texture. The cheese had melted nicely over the patties, and we also appreciated that the fluffy bun had been nicely toasted on the inside, helping it hold together throughout the meal. We liked the finely chopped onions, while the pickles were crunchy, if slightly sweet. Although the mustard smash added plenty of flavour to the beef, we would’ve appreciated the acidity of American yellow mustard instead of the fairly sweet burger sauce. The fries came in a very generous portion and were thick and well-cooked, but slightly too heavily salted.

Mother of Wagon has managed to build a really solid foundation in just a few months, and the friendly staff also contributed to the experience. We’re really happy that it’s now possible to get a good burger in central Arboga.
