I had dinner at the Gourmet Burger Kitchen last night, and I honestly don't understand how the business is still running. I was expecting to savour a delicious burger, so I ordered the "Buffalo" burger and "chunky" fries with garlic mayonnaise and smoked chili salsa.
First off, I was shocked to see a kebab shop bun. I was expecting something fresh - you know - something gourmet. But I guess GBK is trying to save money, so they opted to serve cheap bread full of "E" numbers. The buffalo meat was actually juicy and tender, and I liked it. Just sucks that the bread tasted like cardboard.
The fries were a disappointment. They were soft and cold - not warm and crispy. I felt like I was at my local kebab shop. Two of the dips arrived after I was almost finished with my fries too. The waiter's excuse was, "Sorry, we're busy."
A friend of mine had the falafel burger and left hungry because he couldn't eat the bread as it tasted like paper. I can't believe we spent over £30 at this place, and I will NEVER eat here again.
Not worth it. read more
