Despite of uncounted burger stores in Cologne, this one came about with a great, different concept. Three things that thrilled me the most: Free refill soft drinks and burger sauces, the quality of the burger for that price at that prominent location in town and the customizable burger.
As soft drinks , they served not only the usual Coke stuff, but also home made lemonade (normal and pink) and home made ice tea. You could literally see the pulp! They did not offer Coke Zero (only light) - but I didn't miss it as I drank the home made stuff all the time. It's as if you drink it from one of those little girls in the U.S. movies who sell it at the street.
The burger was perfecly medium - the know their work. Also, they claim that the patties are done by themselves freshly every day - well you definitely can taste it. The burger was very juicy and biting it was a lot of fun. Yes you have to bite it - they don't typically serve folk and knife, instead: At each take, there is a big roll of kitchen paper so you can enjoy biting your burger as passionately as you want because you know, you can clean your Mrs ip immediately with no first of a shortage in tissue. There even is a sink right in the store without having to go to the restrooms.
One thing to consider: It's a self order and self fetch restaurant. No, not fast food, as you have all the quality and standards of a normal restaurant in a nice atmosphere. Let's compare it to how Vapiano is for the Italian restaurant business - you may love or hate it. But one thing is for sure: You'll not regret eating one of their burgers. read more
