När vi besökte Dubai under 2019 utnämnde vi Salt till stans bästa burgare, mycket tack vare deras tajta och välbalanserade meny. Mycket har såklart hänt sedan dess, och burgarkedjan anses nu vara en av de ledande aktörerna i hela regionen. Menyn är fortfarande väldigt fokuserad, men nu har de även burgare i fullstorlek och inte bara mindre burgare som tidigare. Vi beställde deras Salt Burger med dubbla köttpuckar, ost, lök och dressing för 48 AED (115 kronor), två mindre Beef Sliders med kött, ost, pickles och originaldressing för 40 AED (95 kronor) samt deras Cheetos Fries med Hot Cheetos-krydda och en labneh-mix för 31 AED (75 kronor).

Allt serverades prydligt och snabbt på metallbrickor och hade en estetik som påminde en hel del om globala burgarkedjor som Shake Shack. Och precis som förra gången fungerade deras potato bun väldigt bra, och var välrostat på insidan och fortfarande väldigt följsamt. Köttets stekyta imponerade rejält, framför allt på den normalstora Salt Burger där crusten var djupare och köttsmaken tog mer plats. Vi uppskattade verkligen deras pickles som hade en riktigt härlig crunch och en syra som verkligen satte pricken över i:et i våra Beef Sliders, och det var lite synd att de inte fanns i den andra burgaren också. De var nämligen ganska tjockt skurna, och i våra sliders konkurrerade de lite väl mycket med de andra ingredienserna. Burgarsåserna var helt okej, men vi hade gillat om de haft lite mer karaktär och vågat stå ut mer smakmässigt. En av höjdpunkterna var deras Cheetos Fries, med en fin balans mellan den välkomnande hettan från ostbågarna och den kylande labneh-mixen. Det var svårt att sluta äta när vi väl tagit vår första tugga.

Salt fortsätter att imponera med sin minimalistiska meny och sina välgjorda burgare, och de är fortfarande en stark rekommendation nästa gång du är i Dubai med omnejd.

When we visited Dubai in 2019, we named Salt the best burger in town, thanks in large part to their tight and well-balanced menu. A lot has changed since then, and the burger chain is now considered one of the leading players in the region. Their menu is still very focused, but now they also have full-size burgers, not just smaller ones like before. We ordered their Salt Burger with double beef patties, cheese, onions and burger saice for 48 AED (13 USD), two smaller Beef Sliders with beef, cheese, pickles and original dressing for 40 AED (11 USD) and their Cheetos Fries with Hot Cheetos seasoning and a labneh mix for 31 AED (8.5 USD).

Everything was served neatly and quickly on metal trays and had an aesthetic that reminded us a lot of global burger chains like Shake Shack. And just like last time, their potato bun worked very well, and was well-toasted on the inside and still very pliable. The patties’ crust was impressive, especially on the normal-sized Salt Burger where it was deeper and the meat flavor took center stage. We really appreciated their pickles, which had a really nice crunch and a tang that really brought our Beef Sliders to life, and it was a bit of a shame that they weren’t in the other burger as well. However, since the slices were pretty thick, they took over a bit too much in our sliders. The burger sauces were decent, but we would have liked them to have a bit more character and dare to stand out more in terms of flavor. Another highlight was their Cheetos Fries, striking a nice balance between the heat from the cheetos and the cooling labneh mix. It was hard to stop eating it once we took our first bite.

Salt continue to impress with their minimalist menu and well-made burgers, and they are still a strong recommendation the next time you’re in Dubai and the surrounding area.

Recension från 27 december 2019

Recension skriven av Linus Josephson

27 december 2019, Salt

Detta är vår SALT Bae.

SALT är utan tvekan ett av de mest välkända burgarhaken i Dubai, och de har med sina kromade matvagnar och smashade puckar av Wagyu-biff gjort sig ett namn även internationellt. Sedan starten 2014 har de även expanderat till städer som Abu Dhabi och Riyadh.

Menyn är kittlande minimalistisk med endast tre sliders; original med ost, originalsås och pickles, Hook-burgaren med ost, Hook-sås, jalapeños och sallad samt en burgare med friterad kyckling, ost och Cheetos. Varje beställning innehåller två sliders och vi valde att testa deras originalburgare i dubbelt utförande, det vill säga två sliders med dubbla köttpuckar (120 gram kött per burgare), för totalt 48 AED (cirka 120 kronor). Vi beställde även en portion pommes frites för 13 AED (33 kronor).

Burgarna med tillbehör serverades i en stadig papplåda med tillhörande pappersfickor. Allt var omsorgsfullt konstruerat där allt låg på rätt plats, med ost som hade smält snyggt över de smashade köttpuckarna. Hamburgarna hade en otroligt mjuk munkänsla, och smörigheten från brödet gav allt en vacker rundhet. Även köttet imponerade med sin saftighet och den rejäla stekytan som vi alltid är svaga för. Pommes fritesen hade dessutom en fin krispig textur samt en rejäl potatissmak.

Den enda svaga länken var egentligen samma problem som de flesta sliders faktiskt lider av, nämligen balansen mellan ingredienserna. Den picklade gurkan hade en fin syrlighet och ett krispiga bett, men den var för tjock och tog över alldeles för mycket. Om burgaren hade varit i normalstorlek skulle inte detta vara ett problem, men nu störde det tyvärr helhetsupplevelsen.

SALT är ett givet besök nästa gång du besöker Dubai och är sugen på en riktig kvalitetsburgare, och det är bara detaljmissar som gör att de inte får vårt högsta betyg.

SALT are without a doubt one of the most well-known burger joints in Dubai, and their chromed food trucks and smashed Wagyu sliders have made them internationally known. They opened back in 2014, and have even expanded to other cities such as Abu Dhabi och Riyadh.

Their minimalistic menu contains three sliders; the original with cheese, original sauce and pickles, the Hook burger with cheese sauce, Hook sauce, jalapeños and lettuce and a chicken fillet burger with cheese sauce, lettuce plus Cheetos sauce and crumbs. Each order contains two sliders, so we ordered their double original with two sliders containing double 2 oz patties each for 48 AED (13 USD). We also ordered some fries for 13 AED (3.5 USD).

The burgers and sides came served in sleeves in a sturdy paper box. Everything was meticulously constructed, and the cheese had melted nicely over the smashed patties. The mouthfeel was incredibly soft, and the buttery bun really complemented the flavours. We were impressed by the juicy beef and its excellent crust – a feature we’re always fond of. The fries added to the meal with some great texture and deep potato flavours.

The only real weakness was the ingredient ratio, which is a common problem for sliders. The pickles had a crispy bite and added some much-needed acitidy, but they were too thick and were overpowering. If this had been a regular sized burger it wouldn’t have mattered, but here it was a bit overwhelming.

SALT are a must-visit the next time you’re in Dubai and want to eat a top-notch burger, and they are just a few adjustments away from reaching our top score.

🍔 Review № 1381

🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 @black_bear_burger ★★★★☆

Black Bear Burger is one of the veterans of the modern burger wave in England, and we have tried their burgers several times since our first review in 2017. Over the years, Black Bear Burger has received more and more attention and hype, both domestically and internationally, and today they are one of the most well-known burger restaurants in all of England. They have locations at nearly 10 places around London, and we visited their restaurant inside the Market Halls Victoria food hall and ordered their Double Miso Bacon Burger – the same burger that won them the National Burger of the Year 2025 award. The burger contained double patties, double cheese, smoked bacon and their miso butter mayo, and it cost 15.8 GBP (21 USD).

The burger looked exactly as we remembered it, with pre-formed patties and a pale bun covered in a generous layer of sesame seeds. The bun was soft and fluffy, but just like on our previous visits, we felt that the crust-like amount of sesame seeds took over both in terms of flavour and texture. The meat was of high quality as always and had a nice and potent dry-aged character that they are known for. The meat could have been juicier though, as it felt a bit too compact this time. The bacon was super tasty and crispy, just the way we like it, and the onion also contributed a nice texture. Their miso butter mayo was very flavourful with its buttery, salty, and umami-rich taste, but together with the bacon and the beef, the overall flavour profile was a bit too salty. We would have liked to see some kind of freshness to break up the saltiness for a more complete experience.

We are very happy that a veteran like Black Bear Burger continues to deliver high-quality burgers year after year, and they are still a safe bet when you are craving a really good burger in London.
