Paper Plate

Paper Plate är ett ganska nyöppnat popup-burgarställe som främst kan hittas på matmarknaden Smorgasburg i New York. På menyn fanns endast två olika burgare, och vi valde en dubbel Classic Burger med två angus-köttpuckar, ost, pickles och dressing som serverades i ett potatisbröd. Priset för detta var 12 USD (120 kronor).

Maten serverades väldigt snabbt, och burgaren vi fick var väldigt högt byggd. Den var dessutom monterad så att köttpuckarna hängde ut ganska mycket ur framsidan av brödet, vilket gjorde måltiden lite svåräten då varje tugga innehöll antingen för mycket kött eller för mycket bröd. Osten var i alla fall härligt smält och smakade riktigt gott, men köttpuckarna var lite sega och tuggiga, vilket blev extra märkbart när vi fick tuggor med enbart köttet. Potatisbrödet var gott i grunden, men hade mått bra av lite fett när det rostats då det var lite torrt. Och såsen, som annars hade kunnat rädda måltiden, hade en konstig eftersmak som påminde lite om skaldjur. Den passade verkligen inte in i smakbilden, och vi har svårt att förstå varför de valt att ha den på sin burgare.

Paper Plate gjorde alldeles för många fel för att vara värda en rekommendation, och vi föreslår att du väljer något annat av de många och fantastiska burgarställena om du beger dig till det annars så underbara Smorgasburg.

In English

Paper Plate is a relatively newly opened pop-up burger place that often can be found at the food market Smorgasburg in New York. They had two burgers on the menu, and we ordered a Double Classic Burger with two Angus beef patties, cheese, pickles and burger sauce, served in a potato bun. It cost 12 USD.

Our food arrived very quickly, and the first thing we noticed was that our burger was very tall. It had also been built unevenly, making the patties droop out in the front far too much. This made the burger difficult to eat, as some bites contained too much beef, while others contained too much bun. The cheese had melted excellently and tasted great, but the patties themselves were a bit chewy, which was extra noticeable when we tasted them by themselves. The potato bun was good in itself, but was slightly dry and should maybe have been toasted with some fat. And the burger sauce, which really could have saved the meal, had a strange aftertaste that reminded us a bit of seafood. It really didn’t suit the other flavours, and we were a bit baffled as to why they’d chosen it for their burger.

Paper Plate made far too many mistakes to be worth a recommendation, and we really think that you should choose another burger if you visit the otherwise amazing Smorgasburg, as there are so many other great places to choose from.

🇸🇪 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.
