Smaklöst trots saftig prislapp

”Högrevsburgare: 189 kronor” står det stolt i menyn. Jag befinner mig i franchisens Gamla Stan-lokaler, och går på misstaget att beställa denna tingest. Det står ju att det är högrev, och då borde väl kocken veta hur en burgare ska tillagas.

Men icke. Resultatet är en hård puck inklämd i ett nästan lika hårt och torrt bröd. Den krispiga saltgurkan ler hånfullt mot mig, stolt över att den inte har tillagats utan förmodligen bara skurits på längden för att garnera tallriken. Den hårdknapriga pommesen har inte samma självförtroende, och måste tryckas ned i dipsåsen för att ens kunna ätas.

Jag lämnar lokalen nedslagen och något skamsen. Jag borde ha vetat bättre.

In English

Come for the beer, but skip the horrible and expensive burger. The prime rib patty is almost as hard and dry as the bread, and the fries are tastelessly bland. Avoid at all costs.

🇸🇪 @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.
