LG/F, 7-9 Staunton St, Central, 2522 1262.

One of the first New York-style burger joints to open in Hong Kong. We tried the classic hamburger ($50) with mustard, relish, red onion and lettuce.

What our tasters said: “Is this actually meat?... Tastes chewy... The bun is soggy and not very fresh... The lettuce, tomato and onion are limp... The lettuce is brown... Tasted like artificial meat adorned with leftover trash.”

Meat: 1/10
Bun: 
1/10
Toppings:
1/10
Value:
0/10
Overall: 1/10
We’ve had decent burgers from here before, so maybe it was an off day. But with so much competition around, can you afford to be this far off even once?

  • Used to love the roast beef sandwiches here, like 3, 4 years ago...went back today, got served by this grumpy looking douche who made me the worst fucking sandwich ive had in my life. Meat all tough and shit, sliced thick and sinewy, flavourless. Sandwich was a mess, thrown together in 10 seconds. And not even wrapped up nicely, foil haphazardly thrown acrosss it. Never again.
