Hight Joint

En highlight i Dubai

Hight Joint

I det anspråkslösa bostadsområdet Al Manara i Dubai ligger High Joint – stadens kanske minsta burgarhak. Trots sina endast åtta sittplatser har de sedan starten 2018 blivit en av regionens mest populära och respekterade hamburgerrestauranger, och de har vunnit flera utmärkelser. Utöver en tajt meny med endast sex burgare prissatta från 35 AED (cirka 90 kronor) och uppåt, har de även friterade kycklingvingar samt en hemlig meny för de invigda.

Vi beställde deras cheeseburgare ”High Burger” med ost, sallad och majonnäs. Burgaren hade en inbjudande street food-estetik som vi är svaga för. Det gyllene potatisbrödet var en perfekt kompanjon till de smashstekta köttpuckarna som hade dekorerats med smält ost. Första tuggan satt mitt i prick och bevisade att detta var en riktigt vällagad burgare gjord på kvalitetsingredienser.

Köttet var gott med en rejäl kryddning och stekyta, medan brödet var av mycket hög kvalitet och hade den där speciella segheten och fluffigheten ett bra potatisbröd kan ha. Däremot saknades det något som bröt av alla de rejäla smakerna, något som till exempel en fin pickle hade kunnat bidra med.

Vi har inte svårt att förstå varför High Joint är så omtyckta, och det är en häftig upplevelse att äta en av de bästa burgarna i Dubai i ett anonymt bostadsområde som varken känns turistigt eller tröttsamt lyxigt. Detta är helt klart det häftigaste burgarhaket i staden, och bör besökas om du vill byta ut burgaren i gallerian mot ett riktigt burgaräventyr.

In English

High Joint opened in 2018 and can be found in the unassuming Al Manara residential area in Dubai. With just 8 seats they are probably the smallest burger joint in the city, but this hasn’t stopped them from becoming one the the region’s most popular and respected hamburger restaurants, and they have won several awards. Their short but sweet menu consists of 6 different burgers costing from 35 AED (9 USD), and they also have chicken wings and a secret menu for initiated customers.

We ordered their ”High Burger” with cheese, lettuce and mayo, and had that street food feel that we really love. The golden potato bun was a perfect fit for the smashed patties that came covered with melted cheese, and we knew after the first bite that this was a great burger made from high quality ingredients.

The beef was packed with flavours thanks to the generous seasoning and crust, and the bun had that fluffy and squishy potato bun quality that we really enjoy. We did miss something with a bit of acidity that cut through all the flavours. A nice pickle would have rounded off everything nicely.

It’s no wonder that High Joint is so highly rated, and we really enjoyed eating one of Dubai’s best burgers in a laid back domestic area that didn’t feel the need to be touristy or garish. High Joint is the coolest burger joint in Dubai, and shouldn’t be missed if you want to leave the shopping malls and go on a real burger adventure.

🇸🇪 Burger House Homemade ★☆☆☆☆

Burger House Homemade is located right by the E18 outside Kristinehamn and is hard to miss from the road. The restaurant is decorated like a colourful American 1950s diner, with a large menu where the burgers come in several sizes. The prices were steep, with a burger containing 120 grams of beef costing 189 SEK (20 USD) and a 200-gram version a whopping 289 SEK (31 USD), meaning an extra 100 SEK (11 USD) for just 80 grams more beef. However, we struggled to find a burger where the ingredients felt thoughtfully put together. In the end, we ordered a Cheeseburger with 200 grams of beef, double cheddar, caramelised onions, tomato, lettuce, pickles and burger sauce. Fries were included, but with a soft drink the final bill came to well over 300 SEK (32 USD).

The burger was sloppily assembled and covered in sauce when it arrived. The two smashed patties, made from Swedish chuck, had a lightly grilled flavour, but they’d been pressed too hard and had a compact, chewy texture. The beef was also oversalted and tasted really dull. In contrast, the burger sauce, onions and, strangely enough, even the pickles were very sweet, and none of the flavours worked particularly well together. The lettuce had been placed underneath the beef, where the heat had turned it translucent and limp. The sesame bun had been coloured yellow with turmeric and grilled hard on the outside in a sandwich press, while the inside was left almost completely untoasted. This made it soggy on the inside and crunchy on the outside. The result was a messy burger with poorly handled beef at an outrageously high price. The fries were at least okay and the portion was very filling, but that was the only positive part of the meal.

Burger House Homemade felt more like a trap for hungry motorists than a craft burger place with homemade burgers, and we found nothing that justified the unreasonably high prices. We recommend holding out a little longer and finding something tastier and better value further down the road if you’re craving a burger on your journey.

🇸🇪 @rollinbistrosbackyard ★★★★☆

Rollin Bistros started out as a food truck in 2014 and opened their Backyard in Gamlestaden, Gothenburg, in 2020, which we visited shortly afterwards. Since 2024, they’ve also served our favourite burger in Gothenburg. One thing that’s consistent at Rollin Bistros is the craftsmanship, which was evident in both the food and the huge yet intimate venue. During our latest visit, we ordered two burgers: a double Classic Cheese with two smashed patties, cheddar, white onions, dill pickles and burger sauce for 220 SEK (22 USD), as well as the bistro-style Home Run with just one thick beef patty and cheese for 195 SEK (19.5 USD). We also ordered a portion of teriyaki onion rings for 95 SEK (9.5 USD).

It’s always a bold move to serve a burger with just beef, bun and cheese, but the Home Run really let the ingredients shine. The thick beef patty was juicy, with a slightly pink centre and a nice crust. It tasted really good in all its simplicity, although the meat had been salted a little too heavily. The bun from a local bakery was airy, held together well and had a buttery richness that we appreciated. The smashed cheeseburger also had tasty beef, and although it was naturally more well-done, it was still juicy. The cheese was creamy, the onions added a nice texture and the burger sauce was like a more grown-up and mature version of a classic burger sauce. The problem here was their pickles, which were a bit floppy since they were made with regular cucumbers, with a sharp flavour that reminded us more of a Swedish crayfish party than a burger. As always, the star of the menu was their sides, something they’ve never failed at. The onion rings were crispy and served with an addictive teriyaki ripple and an equally fantastic MSG mayo. The soft serve ice-cream also impressed, with interesting toppings such as foie gras and caramel sauce for 115 SEK (11.5 USD) as well as yuzu, toasted sesame seeds and crispy meringues for 75 SEK (7.5 USD).

Rollin Bistros keep flying the flag high on Gothenburg’s burger scene, and we also recommend a visit to Gamlestaden for the sides, desserts and service.
