WOW.
After 10 months…read moreliving in Stockholm, disappointed by every burger I've had (Even when visiting Norrköping), I've finally found a burger worth trying again. I recently moved to Kungsholmen and noticed that this place was just a few minutes away. When we decided to try it, I was a bit apprehensive. Even Texas Longhorn, that was so hyped up by my boyfriend, wasn't that great to me.
I walked in and the smell was heavenly. I'm a NYC girl who loves Shake Shack, and the smell reminded me of my beloved shack burger. The decor is very 50's, and I thought it was pretty cool. Many places in Stockholm try too hard to be modern, so this was a refreshing change. The staff was super friendly and helped us choose a beer to drink, since a lot of them were unfamiliar to me.
I had "Den Goden" burger, which had bean sprouts, spinach, yellow beet, and avocado. I sat down kicking myself because I realized that the combination just sounded ABSURD. I was a bit scared to try it but once I did, I was so happy. The meat was DELICIOUS, just the perfect amount of moistness and flavor. The bun was a potato bun (I think?), a bit soft for some tastes, but I prefer this kind of bread on my burgers. The flavors of the toppings weren't strong, but the avocado added a nice creaminess that was super pleasing.
I also had disco fries, but I was a bit tired of them since my burger was so filling. They were pretty tasty though, and would probably be better if shared.
I will definitely be back here. The prices aren't cheap, but this is Stockholm, and they aren't really expensive either. I think it's totally worth it for a good burger and a beer.
(P.S. I see all you Flippin Burgers enthusiasts in the reviews-- I'm trying that next!)
