Hot Smash Burger är en liten men charmig matvagn som står i ett shoppingområde i Upplands Väsby utanför Stockholm. De öppnade under hösten 2023, och vi har fått in flera tips om stället sedan dess. Burgarmenyn innehöll fem hamburgare med kött plus en med halloumi, och vi beställde dels en Amsterdam med burgarost, rödlök, tomat, sallad och burgardressing och en New York med burgarost, stekt lök, tomat, sallad, bbq-sås och chilimajonnäs. Burgarna kostade 129 kronor med dubbla 80-gramsköttpuckar, och under lunchen ingick både pommes frites och läsk, vilket annars kostar 25 kronor extra.

Våra burgare såg oväntat maffiga ut när de serverades, med sina stora glansiga bröd och de dubbla lagren med osttäckt kött. New York-burgaren hade ett härligt krispigt första bett som avslöjade att brödet var rejält stekt i smör. Den stekta löken, bbq-såsen och chilimajonnäsen gjorde sig väldigt bra ihop med all ost, vilket gjorde den till vår favorit av de två. Vår Amsterdam var lite tråkigare smakmässigt, då både rödlöken och dressingen höll sig i bakgrunden. Vi noterade att köttet på vår Amsterdam hade mycket sämre stekyta än vår New York, som var märkbart saftigare med luftigare textur. Vi förmodar att detta beror på att stekbordet i vagnen var så litet, men det kändes som en trist omständighet att stekytan skilde sig så pass mycket mellan burgarna. Pommes fritesen var av ganska typisk gatukökskvalitet, men var ändå godkända med vettig sälta och krispighet.

Hot Smash Burger serverar goda burgare som främst hålls tillbaka av deras stekbord, så vi hoppas på lite jämnare kvalitet i framtiden då detta definitivt skulle lyfta upplevelsen ett snäpp.

In English

Hot Smash Burger is a small but charming food stand in a shopping centre in Upplands Väsby outside Stockholm. They opened in the autumn of 2023, and we’ve received several tips about the place since then. The burger menu included five beef burgers and one with halloumi, and we ordered an Amsterdam with burger cheese, red onion, tomato, lettuce and burger sauce, and a New York with burger cheese, fried onion, tomato, lettuce, BBQ sauce and chilli mayo. Our burgers cost 129 SEK (12 USD) with double 80 gram patties, and during lunch both fries and a soft drink were included (instead of costing 25 SEK (2 USD) extra).

Our burgers looked surprisingly big when they arrived, with large, shiny buns and double stacks of cheese-covered meat. The New York burger had a nice crunchy first bite, revealing that the bun had been heavily fried in butter. The fried onions, barbecue sauce and chilli mayonnaise worked really well with all the cheese, making it our favourite of the two. Our Amsterdam was a little more bland, with both the red onion and the sauce taking a back seat. We noticed that the meat on our Amsterdam had a much weaker crust than our New York, which was noticeably juicier and had a fluffier texture. We suspect this is due to the small size of their griddle, but it was unfortunate that the crust varied so much between the burgers. The fries were of fairly typical grill kiosk quality, but were still decent with reasonable saltiness and crispness.

Hot Smash Burger serves good burgers that are mainly held back by their griddle, and we’re hoping for a more consistent level of quality in the future as this would definitely take the experience up a notch.

🇦🇪 @she_burger ★★★★☆

She Burger is a restaurant chain with several locations in Dubai and around the Middle East, and they participated in the Dubai Burger Championship 2026. The burger they served at the festival was the same name as the restaurant, She Burger, and it consisted of two smashed beef patties, roasted onions, veal bacon jam with a lot of coffee, and their signature sauce for 60 AED (16.5 USD).

We immediately felt that the burger had a very international appearance when we saw it, and it offered a well-shaped brioche bun, plenty of toppings, double meat patties. The bun was soft and had a good size, but the heel would have been able to handle the beef juices better if they’d let the patties rest before assembly. The Black Angus meat had a strong meat flavour with a robust seasoning, but we felt that the crust should have been more pronounced and that the meat could have been even juicier. The fried onion was texturally brilliant, and it added both flavour and a lovely crunch that the burger really needed. The veal bacon jam was incredibly good and had a much more mature taste than we are normally used to. It was very coffee heavy, which we really appreciated. On the other hand, the signature sauce was completely anonymous and didn’t make any real impression.

She Burger do a lot right with this burger, but they need to refine the details and the meat to really make it a winner. But that being said, they offer one of the better burgers in Dubai.

🇸🇪 @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.
