La Fabbrica Del Gusto har stängt sin verksamhet.

Grinded har serverat burgare sedan 2015, och ligger lite undangömda i La Fabbrica Del Gustos lokaler i Östersund. Vid vårt besök erbjöds fyra köttburgare, en kycklingburgare och två vegetariska varianter med halloumi respektive falafel. En enkel hamburgare kostar 99 kronor, och en dubbel kostar mellan 139 och 159 kronor. Vi beslutade oss för att avvika från vårt vanliga val av cheeseburgare och provade istället den spännande Bistro-burgaren, som bestod av amerikansk högrev, bacon, västerbottenost, relish, stekt lök, svamp och tryffelmajonnäs.

Burgaren såg klart godkänd ut när den anlände vid vårt bord, och faktum är att smaken faktiskt överträffade våra förväntningar. Köttet var saftigt och smakrikt och brödet från Gimonäs bageri i Umeå var fluffigt och höll inne alla köttsafter väl. Och de välstekta kastanjchampinjonerna tillsammans med tryffelmajonnäsen gjorde hamburgaren till en riktig umamibomb. Sältan från det knaperstekta baconet och den söta löken bidrog till en mycket fin balans i hamburgaren, och västerbottensosten var pricken över i:et. Relishen märkte vi däremot inte av alls, och det hade nog behövts lite mer syra för att bryta av alla de kraftiga smakerna – som var väldigt samspelta i övrigt.

Grinded är helt klart ett toppalternativ i Östersund burgarscen, och vi återvänder gärna för att testa resten av deras utbud.

Update: Grinded are now part of the La Fabbrica Del Gusto restaurant. We’ve updated the header and website address.

Grinded have served burgers in Östersund up in the north of Sweden since 2015, and are hidden away in La Fabbrica Del Gusto’s restaurant. During our visit they had 4 beef burgers, 1 with chicken and two vegetarian options with halloumi or falafel. A single burger costs 99 SEK (11 USD), and a double burger will set you back between 139 and 159 SEK (16-18 USD). We decided to skip our regular cheeseburger order and instead opted for their enticing Bistro burger, made with American chuck roll, bacon, Västerbotten cheese, relish, fried onions, mushrooms and truffle mayo.

The burger looked pretty good, but we were really blown away when we took our first bite. The meat was really juicy and flavoursome, and the bun from Gimonäs bakery in Umeå was fluffy whilst still managing to keep everything together. The fried chestnust mushrooms worked with the truffle mayo to create some deep, rich umami flavours as well. We also appreciated how the salty and crunchy bacon was balanced out by the sweet onions, and the Västerbotten cheese just topped everything off. We didn’t notice the relish at all though, which was a pity seeing as all these powerful (and otherwise well-balanced) flavours could have done with a bit of acidity to even everything out.

Grinded are definitely one of the best burger joints in Östersund, and we look forward to trying the rest of their menu.

🇸🇪 @thellas_foodtruck ★★★★☆

Thellas is a food truck in Gävle that we’ve heard a lot of positive things about since they opened in 2024. The menu at the time of our visit consisted of four beef burgers and a vegetarian option. We chose the classic ”Thellas Cheese” cheeseburger with double burger cheese, silver onions, dill pickles, ketchup, mustard and mayonnaise. A single patty burger cost 115 SEK (12.5 USD), but we ordered a double 120-gram patty burger with for 145 SEK (15.5 USD) and also added 30 SEK (3 USD) for french fries and 15 SEK (1.5 USD) for a chili mayo.

There was a long line of people waiting for their food, and when the burger was served we were greeted by a well-composed and inviting cheeseburger. The first bite was incredibly flavourful and juicy, with a very clear crust on the patties. The beef was well-seasoned with a generous amount of coarsely ground black pepper. And the creamy cheese was delicious and nicely melted over the beef. Unfortunately, the bun was a bit of a disappointment, because despite looking good, it had been toasted for too long on the grill and lacked the fluffy texture we expect from a brioche bun. Their own-pickled cucumber was delicious and added both acidity and crunch, and we would have liked to see more of it so that it was spread over the entire burger. All the sauces did their job without standing out and were also in the right amount, without any one of them overpowering the others. We also liked the generous portion of crispy french fries, and the smoky chilli mayo was tasty – although it could have been a bit spicier.

Thellas undoubtedly serve one of the better burgers we’ve eaten in Gävle, and the service from the guys in the food truck was excellent as well. We definitely recommend keeping an eye on their schedule and visiting them if you’re in the area.
