HB for the win
Listen, burgers are not unique to the US anymore. Yes, there was a time when the world turned their noses up at this type of food, but those days are long gone. London, much like Paris and other European cities is going through, or should I say, has already gone through a burger revolution. It's very easy to find a burger that will run circles around a lot of places you'd find in NYC, and Honest is one of those places (honestly...had to don't hate me). We happened upon this place our first day in the city, fresh in from Edinburgh in need of a bite. This place was a pretty easy call, it had simple food, great reviews, and a nice cocktail selection. We grabbed a couple of seats at one of the small tables outside, ordered up some large sized drinks (the spiked lemonade was quite good), and settled in. First up were the spicy onion rings, they were pretty much perfect, large, beer battered (I think), and 100% big enough to split between two people. Speaking of splitting, they had a new buffalo chicken sandwich on the menu that we both wanted to try, so we did half of one each along with half an honest burger. It was SPUER hard to pick which was better, as the burger was really really good, but I think I have to give it to the chicken, it was amazeballs.
So there you go, not only is the UK better at burgers now, but they are also better at frying chicken and making it spicy and delcious. The USA is going downhill I tell you.
