A-Burger-Takeover is on-going since the 1st Round of Vinny Lauria's Meatball Burger. Don't know The Butchers Club? Are you kidding? It is one of the hottest burger shop in town!!! Located in Wanchai, the new rising dining block for Hongkongers and Expats, following Soho gourmet area. Their dry-aged Angus Beef cheeseburger, is absolutely must-try item, and actually except the yum-yum to be introduced, I would like to say something about the concept the lovely crew told me that day... Don't think

Don't think too large, in fact it is just a simple and cool burger shop, in grey and black; even the location is quite hidden from the public, while in Hong Kong, a good-place-to-go can never hide well from those people having sensitive noses. The deco is quite American-raw, perfectly matching to the original experience of 'Big-bite'.
5th August, Round 1 of A-Burger-Takeover, is taking place with a long queue during the peak lunch time when I was passing by. Pick up the afternoon break interval I was arranged myself quite comfortable there with a wooden plate of special Meatball Burger ($160) created by the famous Chef, Vinny Lauria, who's the Executive Chef of several western restaurant in Hong Kong. The Meatball Burger is really juicy and tender with the soft bun with sesame.My point actually doesn't fall on the burger itself, the interesting way to order this special burger is quite interesting to me. The working crew told me they were asking every customer to be clear about what they want before they made their decision. In fact, the menu of A-Burger-Takeover, is hidden behind a QR code on the post everywhere online/offline. What eater should do is, make an easy research about what's going on about The Butchers Club, and 'study' what's the special offer before they were lead by public media. It sounds a little arrogant, while I am appreciated to this point in terms of a respect attitude to what you gonna take into your mouth.
Talking back to the classic burger menu, which has my favorite Classic Cheeseburger ($100) and I would like to give more marks to it. Using 100% dry-aged 300+ day grain-fed Australian Angus beef, and served freshly, it is such an evil bite which is a little bit raw in texture that you can have an authentic Angus beef experience. 'What I want for a burger is the slight rough and wildness, com-on, I have taken too much McDonald's in my life!' Oops, narrowly forgot the awesome melted cheddar cheese and greasy bacon, which are the glue to get fluffy bun attached.
