After experiencing a really great burger here last time - a few weeks has passed before I got a Beef Burger craving again, so let's give it another try!



(1) HEINEKEN bottled beer

nice and chilled!

(2) POUTINE Fries :

The fries are the the skin-on type. Whilst I liked the potatoes, I thought the gravy quality was not 'meaty' enough in taste and it was definitely way too thin. It also needed a bit more cheese to make it a real Poutine. It was quite edible though!

(3) CHEESE BURGER :

This was meant to have mushrooms added but the order was missed.
When this arrived, I knew that it wouldn't be as good as burger I got last time. The obvious problem being that the pattie was too overcooked, leaving the centre a bit 'drier' than its potential....

The Damper Bread was also way too cold this time around, because it was not toasted in a synchronised enough manner, as I could see that it has been taken off the broiler top and put into the paper box minutes before the pattie was put on and the burger assembled. NOT GOOD!

Perhaps the less-than-satisfactory result is due to the shop being packed that night. I could clearly see that others' burgers suffered the same, OVERCOOKED fate. I thought I should also mention that the guy doing the cooking that night didn't look all too experienced and enthusiastic enough, and other helpers ran about too much like headless chickens rather than each doing their own jobs properly.... some of them even touching the food without latex gloves, then proceeding to open door, accept money, etc. ITS VERY NOT HYGIENIC.

________________________________________
The lady cooking my burger last time really did a much better job last time around.
Now, I finally understand why sometimes people complain about the burger quality here as well as the overly dried patty - it seems too variable. (whereas my last experience here was highly satisfying, with beef jus leaking down like a downpour).

HOW ABOUT TRAINING THE STAFF SO THAT THEY TAKE MORE CARE WITH COOKING THE FOOD, AS WELL AS HAVING MORE HYGIENE EDUCATION? ITS HUMAN SWINE INFLUENZA PEAK PERIOD.....
Not bad but not that great. Read Below.

Big Bite has always been my favorite burger place in Hong Kong. Whether it's the food or the atmosphere I am unsure of but I was particularly impressed on the animal heads being displayed in the shop. They lifted up my spirit whenever I looked at them.

I went there alone after a long working day, placed my order and picked a seat in the corner of the restaurant, with a view to the street. Tonight, I wanted to be alone enjoying my dinner on the Tuesday Beer Special evening. Waiting patiently for 10 minutes, I was served with a Crispy Bacon Cheese Burger, 5 chicken wings and a Henineken. It was well worth the wait.

I let out a sigh after taking a sip on the cold beer and let the liquid dampened my throat. Deciding against taking another sip, I started to work on my burger instead. Taking my first bit bite on my favourite food seem to be impossible without pushing down on the buns. The buns were warm with a touch of crispy flavour. The pattie was just about right with springy, chewy texture. The overall combination of with the crispy bacon is a feast for my pallet. To finish off, I licked my fingers to savour the last taste of juices slipping through my hands.

The owner is considerable enough to have a basin in the shop. After washing my hands, I was finally ready to endouge myself into the chicken wings and beer. The suicide chicken wings did not fail to awaken every nerve in my body but I resisted the temptation of ice cold beer. At least not just yet. It was not until I swallowed the last bite in my mouth did I took a sip. It was heaven on earth.

I stayed for a hour, just sitting, enjoying watching the people walked by the neighbourhood, smelling the aroma of beef being cooked and feeling the relaxing atmosphere around me. Overall, a good ending to a tough day.

個人很愛吃burger, 之前看過食評指Big Bite不錯, 山長水遠到來開餐....可是只換來失望...當日時間有點趕, 見店內早有幾檯家庭客。當時正有一位家庭主婦feel的女士在place order, 我男友排在她後面, 可是那女子竟沒有預先看好餐牌才place order, 也沒有顧念後面還有顧客在等, 她於counter擾攘了一段時間, 害我們站在後面等了好久...食慾減了一半。因是open kitchen的關係, 看到staff是即叫即預備食物的, 雖然我們趕時間, 但為了新鮮好吃的食物, 只有乖乖的等。我們order 了一個Cheese burger (餐牌上清楚的寫著with melted cheddar, 把我吸引了過去) 及Back Baccon Burger, 還有一個薯條, 可是送來的食物卻有點令人失望, 因為:1. 以為是即叫即製, 可是拿在手上吃在咀裡都是涼的, 不論是burger還是薯條都是一樣 2. 牛肉有筋3. 芝士根本吃不出有芝士味愛吃burger的朋友, 相信看了第一點也會評它一個不及格吧!

小時候,漢堡包永遠都係姓「Mc」的,和薯條搭上的亦只有茄汁,一個餐是不會超過二十元的。到大個,姓「Mc」的漢堡包己經不在選擇之列,一個餐貴至六七十元亦不覺過份,只要物有所值就可以。今次,就專程走到北角,去試一個物有所值的貴價漢堡。THE BIG BITE 的裝修很美國式,全店多是BAR枱的高腳椅。WAITER是外國人,大多不會說中文。餐單以英文為主,雖然有中文翻譯,但是,有些食物的名稱是譯錯的。點了一個Cheese Burger、一個Mushroom Burger、Poutine 同 Chilli Cheese Fries 。兩個Burger都很多汁好大個,Burger 不是用紙來包著,而是用紙盤。因為個burger真係太多汁,那些汁會一路食一路漏出來。我想所有人都會弄到一手都是汁,店內亦細心地在當眼處放了一個洗手盤。Mushroom Burger 是把炒熟的磨菇加汁放上漢堡排上。那塊漢堡排和麵包有少少乾身,漢堡排應該是本身用料問題,因為那塊排不是太熟,在排中間還能看到偏紅的肉。而麵包就因為煎過,所以都略乾。但是配合上超多的醬汁,把這個缺點完全蓋過!!Cheese Burger就有大大

小時候,漢堡包永遠都係姓「Mc」的,和薯條搭上的亦只有茄汁,一個餐是不會超過二十元的。到大個,姓「Mc」的漢堡包己經不在選擇之列,一個餐貴至六七十元亦不覺過份,只要物有所值就可以。今次,就專程走到北角,去試一個物有所值的貴價漢堡。

THE BIG BITE 的裝修很美國式,全店多是BAR枱的高腳椅。WAITER是外國人,大多不會說中文。餐單以英文為主,雖然有中文翻譯,但是,有些食物的名稱是譯錯的


點了一個Cheese Burger、一個Mushroom Burger、Poutine 同 Chilli Cheese Fries 。兩個Burger都很多汁好大個,Burger 不是用紙來包著,而是用紙盤。因為個burger真係太多汁,那些汁會一路食一路漏出來。我想所有人都會弄到一手都是汁,店內亦細心地在當眼處放了一個洗手盤。

Mushroom Burger 是把炒熟的磨菇加汁放上漢堡排上。那塊漢堡排和麵包有少少乾身,漢堡排應該是本身用料問題,因為那塊排不是太熟,在排中間還能看到偏紅的肉。而麵包就因為煎過,所以都略乾。但是配合上超多的醬汁,把這個缺點完全蓋過!!Cheese Burger就有大大塊的蕃茄,洋蒽和生菜,看落很新鮮,不過因為本身天生和蕃茄有血海深仇,所以Cheese Burger還是留給女朋友品嘗


薯條是我愛吃的那種,炸得很透,很脆。(New York Fries 完全不是我杯茶) Poutine 比 Chilli Cheese Fries 多汁,就算吃到最尾,都仲有芝士和烤汁。Chilli Cheese Fries 有肉醬、Cream、橄欖,雖然Chilli Cheese Fries的配料不是我最愛,但是我仍然擋不了薯條的引誘。全部薯條差不多是我吃,只有少部是女朋友吃。

價錢是貴了些,要一個餐就最少要六十元起,但是物有所值,全部食品都是即叫做的。加上店外經常都會派發優惠劵,所以價錢算是合理。
大大份~~

為紀念有個新開始, 下班後當然要跟MP去分享喜悅... 其實近來都沒甚麼想吃, 有時也就求求其其的了事... 所以今次也不算是精心挑選, 但至少是由這店開張以來, 我心中一直想去但又懶得去的店子我們又幸運地包店了, 整頓晚飯都沒有其他客人...真是令人擔心... 話說回頭, 我一心打算吃熱狗, 所以基本上二話不說就要mushroom jumbo with cheese, 因為MP怕辣, 所以放棄了chilli... 而我的熱狗跟餐, 要了poutine及oreo smoothies... MP就只要了個cbc, 即係脆煙肉漢堡我的熱狗起初漏了磨菇芝士, 我倆傻傻的, 差點也不發覺呢~ 不過一發現店員當然立刻更改, 一條熱辣辣的長熱狗就上枱了~是熱呼呼的, 再加上一點點的ketup及mustard~ 包有烘過的痕跡, 吃上來則被那濕潤的磨菇汁蓋過了包本來應有的香脆感... 不過也是不錯的, 至於熱狗腸本身屬above average的貨式吧, 肉結結實實的, 不過未吃得出驚喜... 但一點是肯定的, 9吋長的熱狗真的太巨型, 我一口沒法把整個包都吃下, 要像MP般用big bites才

為紀念有個新開始, 下班後當然要跟MP去分享喜悅... 其實近來都沒甚麼想吃, 有時也就求求其其的了事... 所以今次也不算是精心挑選, 但至少是由這店開張以來, 我心中一直想去但又懶得去的店子

我們又幸運地包店了, 整頓晚飯都沒有其他客人...真是令人擔心... 話說回頭, 我一心打算吃熱狗, 所以基本上二話不說就要mushroom jumbo with cheese, 因為MP怕辣, 所以放棄了chilli... 而我的熱狗跟餐, 要了poutineoreo smoothies... MP就只要了個cbc, 即係脆煙肉漢堡

我的熱狗起初漏了磨菇芝士, 我倆傻傻的, 差點也不發覺呢~ 不過一發現店員當然立刻更改, 一條熱辣辣的長熱狗就上枱了~是熱呼呼的, 再加上一點點的ketup及mustard~ 包有烘過的痕跡, 吃上來則被那濕潤的磨菇汁蓋過了包本來應有的香脆感... 不過也是不錯的, 至於熱狗腸本身屬above average的貨式吧, 肉結結實實的, 不過未吃得出驚喜... 但一點是肯定的, 9吋長的熱狗真的太巨型, 我一口沒法把整個包都吃下, 要像MP般用big bites才可以呢...

我的熱狗跟了oreo smoothies及poutine... 前者味較淡, 我倆都以為會是濃味之作, 結果感到意外... 所以這杯飲品一開始是不討我倆歡心的, 不過當吃到一半時, 我方才覺得淡有淡好, 因為當所有食物都濃味且濟時, 這杯smoothies至少不會使情況雪上加霜, 所以淡淡的oreo也有其好處的~
至於poutine, comparing with new york fries, 我倆都更喜歡這個, 因那gravy味剛好, 不會太鹹, 令我們可在所有食物中找到平衡點... 薯條是正常的小肥型, 而芝士份量雖不多, 不過也不用太貪心的, 味夠就好了

MP要的漢堡也是巨巨的, 跟其他賣美式漢堡的自家店差不多... 他一吃就弄得一手汁了, 不知何故, 有很多汁加水! 相信是蕃茄出水吧?! 所以他也吃得很狼狽呢! 話說回頭, 那個漢堡扒煎得有點過熟, 令肉味流失了... 不太夠味... 加上出水的關係, 底下的包被弄濕了, 有失美味... 所以要我推介的話, 我還是喜歡shake'em'bun...

見到餐牌上寫逢星期二是beer n wings night, 所有wings $3/pc! 真的很抵呢~ 真的想再找一晚去試試其雞翼~

是日放半日假和w黎個拎禮物之旅, 分別要到北角和銅鑼灣拎禮物~放工後為了lunch吃什麼而苦惱非常, w提議可先到北角食漢堡包or到銅鑼灣食雞扒/吉列豬扒, 最後為了令車程更順路決定先到北角醫肚~

車途中經過天后, w講起拿破崙, 如果食完漢堡包後有時間再來食甜品吧~只要是甜品我多多都食得落~

落車後先到某公司拎xbox(好重呀), 再尋找w口中的漢堡包, 走了5分鐘後到了big bite門口, 是間小小的店子呢, 我和w進入時店中只有兩位準備走的食客, 我倆坐下後除了有人上門買外賣/送貨外再沒有其他客人, 店子像給我們包場了

我地簡了店中間的高台椅, 台子上刀叉紙巾調味料一應俱全齊整的排放好, 店子是自助形式的, 心中對此小店很有好感, 對Mushroom有偏好的我要了Mushroom Burger+nachos poutine+百事, w要了Cheese Burger+Onion Rings+七喜, 不一會食物上台啦~首先係onion rings只有少於十個的rings孤拎拎的好唔抵食, 而nachos poutine則超級多料有辣肉醬啦酸忌廉啦紅腰橄欖啦滿滿的, 我的Mushroom Burger肉扒很厚, 但有點乾, 包先煎過了很香口, mushroom不及triple o多, 但肉汁勁勁多, 豐富的肉汁補償了肉扒稍乾的缺點, 我一邊食包肉汁就一邊流, 流到我滿手都是肉汁, 我終於明白了為何這裡的burger是用紙盒裝著而不是用紙包著了, 如果用紙包的話肯定會穿底! 食罷burger洗過了手後(這裡有洗手盆真的非常細心)繼續進攻薯條, 因為配料太多了, 吃這個薯條真的無從入手, 我個人認為薯條要用手拿起食才痛快, 但這個超級多汁的nachos poutine明顯無法用手食, 我和w唯有手叉並用享受眼前的美食, 酸忌廉芝士辣肉醬混和後味道出奇的夾, 既香濃又惹味, 35蚊簡直超值, 我還對w說如果此店開設在我公司附近我一定會常常外賣一個nachos poutine當lunch~相對下onion rings太單調平凡, 我食了一個rings就罷手了

食飽飲足後離開小店我才發現門外有傳單派, 買任何一款burger有是日餐湯or new york sytle fries送, 為何我們剛才係門外沒有看見呢.......之後上到openrice更發現原來有買滿100蚊可當20蚊用的coupon
, 我決定了, 七月內還會再去食多次!

自從食過Big Bite後,一直念念不忘,一係北角開飯就心思思去返呢度
已經試左好多野lu

Crispy Bacon Cheese Burgrer($56):無要lean bacon,但係都唔會食到肥肉,真係好脆,口感好好!尤其因為即整,芝士同bacon融合,好perfect!肉非常juicy,唔會好似burger king等咁乾,又唔會好似pro burger咁死實無味,好正!飽介乎漢堡飽與english muffin之間,稍稍焗過,很軟熟很好味啊!
我鐘意佢的sauce,夠之餘又唔會漏,正!除了tomato同生菜,仲有洋蒽增加咬口,好開心

+14有3 cheese,我覺得係cheese sauce,淨係食到酸酸地,但係都好味啊!味道豐富了很多呢!
Cheese Burger($49):無諗過無Bacon會差咁遠(當然唔係難食喇),因為無左脆bacon增加口感,所以咬口方面比較單一,所以表面$7要bacon好貴,但係以味道黎計絕對值!
The Big Bite($42):最traditional的款式,但係burger始終要有cheese先好

Cheese Poutine($28):芝士汁比較曦,個汁係好味,但係因為太水,所以將即炸的薯條浸飪左,導致有分扣,可惜

Nachos Poutine($33):Nachos toppings有sour cream cheese,肉醬等等,同薯條出奇的夾,而且toppings好多,食晒份ipoutine都綽綽有餘!雖然好肥,但係好滿足!
Original Fires($15):最普通的薯條,但係即炸,而且又粗身,好好味!但黎呢度始終都係食poutine好D

Onion Soup:要芝士絲係入面
令到洋葱湯味道更豐富,Onion好多,辣辣的,不錯!但係同burger配埋,越飲越渴

Potato Salad:好大份呀!上面有bacon粒,好好味!好味過delifrance跟餐的potato salad!
Oreo Smoothies:最差的食物,好淡,無味!set加$13絕對唔值!
服務唔錯,不過淨係識講英文

坐位好外賣式,多數係高枱,唔係坐得好舒服~
食物真係好好味,因為係即整,所以會有D慢,下次要試埋mushroom burger+cheese

As fate would have it, right after the night of summitting two newish Burger Shops' reviews and I already began to kowtow to reality that all of us will be banished to eating Hongkong-nised burger buns with doughy or gritty meat patties without much delectability, I suddenly needed to visit this street again on a 2nd successive night. Having treaded right past 'The Big Bite' numerous times but deterred away somehow on each occasion, perhaps due to an apprehension within that accumulated from recurrent nightmarish experiences elsewhere, I always ended up eating at the dim sim place opposite or even preferring the close-by shopping mall's foodcourt instead. On this fateful night however, no more tenacious excuses to come between us again: let's settle it once and for all, for the sake of deciding whether I was right (or wrong) all along with my prejudice....
In English, there's a derogatory saying used occasionally in a slang match: " $#%$... you are just going to be a Burger Flipper all your life..!". Patronising to the receiver yet very precisely to the point, exposing 1stly the mental association in most cultures that making and flipping some burgers is not an honourable job but 2ndly, implying that any such person is probably intellectually challenged. Many of us whilst kids have done it at some stage in a McDonald's or a Carl's Junior or at a home BBQ. It also explains why so many self-proclaimed Burger Specialist Shops are proliferating everywhere with rigorous momentum like weeds in during spring only to subside then start again the next season. This phenomemon is perhaps surpassed only by the equally propagating Taiwanese Tapioca Drink and Icy Snowflake Dessert stores. These are usually very simple operations that don't cost much to set up compared to a full scale restaurant such as a Wolfgang Puck or a Dan Ryan's. From the very outset, most of these businesses were found around the 'lets-take-a-shortcut' and never too cliched but ever the most unimaginative 'lets-copy-the-others' formula.... So how much trust exactly can you afford to bestow upon these businesses' product? Do most of these small scale burger joint owners even have food training or a clue on how proper burgers should be cooked or taste like, compared to the trained cooks/chefs working in the larger restaurant kitchens? Or is it all just a unilateral proposition based on wishful thinking, sometimes delusionally so...
Without rubbing more salt on the wound, I think it is only right for me to declare: until I came upon this shop, some of my previous 'ok to favourable scores' for local burger shops were already deliberately given out loosely, in good faith, so as not to appear overly mean and uncompromising and sounding like I'm out to ruin someone's business via harsh criticising. From memory my lowest score given was a '3', but in my mind I had experimented and spent a lot of money on many low quality, overpriced burgers already, possible exceptions being the overall pretty good and affordable Burger Mix and also the slightly more professional just overly messy burgers from Shake'em Buns. Unfortunately all of these burgers failed on multiple points somehow and that's ironical, considering they are meant to be such simple food to master and hence the owners chose to open such a simple business in the first place, yet they still cannot deliver (same problem concurrently experienced in Tapioca Tea shops!). At best, some of them on a good day could match but not beat a 'very freshly made' Quarter Pounder from Maccas or a Triple O's burger. Don't forget that to be fair, these so-called gourmet burger shops are all 'freshly made', so don't compare them to a dried out McDonald's version as not all shops have implemented the 'Made to Order' equipment yet at this stage.
On this night, I ordered one of the most basic Cheese Burgers - the 1st item you always order during a real taste test?

CHEESE BURGER:
Before this was finally handed to me, my anticipation was already running abnormally higher than usual after the few minutes spent wandering around browing other menu items, the beer fridge and then their kitchen equipment, as I noticed apart from Burger Republic on Gough Street and the slightly artificial tasting Burger King, this was the only other burger place I've visited which cook their Meat patties on a real Flame-grill Broiler, which gives the patties the necessary char-grill taste! (All other shops I previously visited cooked the meat on a steel plate griddle just like McDonald's, which is about as boring or as bad as pan frying at home - literally where the term 'flipping burgers' originated from!) +1.
And when it arrived, I could not refrain myself from taking a 'Big Bite' aka the shop's name... Instantly I realised my previous bias about HK burgers now need to be thrown out the windscreen, because This Is Actually A Real Burger! For once...! Not only have I skipped the best until last, too late, due to my false preconceptions but this very good burger shop is located in my turf only a block (or 5
) away!
My Burger had the following components:
1) Well toasted Damper Bun with a floury top. Not overly spongy soft like every other burger shop locally. Great and a 1st in Hong Kong.

2) Sliced Lettuce and Tomato with a mayo-like sauce, slightly wilted though with sauce turning unctuous under the heat.
3) The Flame-Grilled Pattie - the soul of the burger. This was amazingly juicy and oozy, the jus falling right back onto the paper tray below. It was thick but still manageably so and it was definitely seasoned by someone who had practised and learnt cooking before and not just another amateurish pattie formed and cooked by one of the zillion 'burger flippers', the major clue being that it carried traces of a mixture of spice enhancers in the background which is unique and often used in high-end burger joints overseas and I've so far never experienced locally. It had lots and lots of beef taste and aroma. It wasn't overly salty but perfectly seasoned and balanced. This was grilled perfectly as well by the quietly spoken lady, around medium to medium-well.
The meat also did not carry unwanted strange flavours or tendons or other unedible sinewy parts, it wasn't doughy and spongy or gritty in texture either.
4) Surprisingly given a bit of heat with the addition of Jalapeno peppers, it added to the experience but wasn't required.
5) Cheddar Cheese was melted to the right amount as well, it was ok. If you want a really cheesy taste experience, I suggest an alternative burger choice complete with 3 cheeses (from memory, Cheddar, Blue and Parmesan).
6) You can get some optional relishes and pickles added if you want, although the relish isn't a fruity one usually reserved for burgers but more for hotdogs.
***********************************
All in all, very happy to have a Gourmet Burger from a dedicated Burger Shop for once.
It wasn't very generously big however and I could have finished 2. But it made up for this with a rare showking of cooking professionality and a real burger's taste. No doubt this is in a league of its own by a great margin within the group of local Burger Specialist shops.
However I should say that there are destined to be great burgers of various stylistic approaches somewhere in certain restaurants, since restaurants are usually run by chefs or cooks rather than the 'Burger Flippers' and also in theory carry better kitchen equipment, meat and ingredients and most importantly proper knowledge about food. Next stop if I have time I'll give BLT, Robuchon, Anthony's Ranch, Pickled Pelican, Ruby Tuesdays, or perhaps the $1000 burger from Steakhouse @ Intercontinental, or any other places, etc, a try in the future!
However I honestly believe the burger at The Big Bite might be close to the top of the As Good As It Will Get already and it will comparatively cheaper than the big named restaurants, especially if you use the OPENRICE $20 VOUCHER which I didn't even know existed until my post tonight.
See you all there.

可能因為住得太近,成日覺得唔急試唔急食,the big bite居然拖到尋日先食,不過完全無失望!睇左好耐都唔明set係點計,最後都係要問waiter(佢地唔識講中文的),先知道原來係單點一個burger一個fries,+$3有tea/soft drinks,簡單黎講就係飲野會抵左,其他不變anyway,order如下:Crispy Bacon Cheese Burger($56):好高好大個,睇佢個樣已經令我好滿足了飽唔係平時的漢堡飽,無芝蔴,但又唔係mc donalds個種muffin飽,比兩者鬆軟,好好味!bacon真係crispy,但係要$7計就唔抵lu~牛肉好厚,而且唔會死死實實,好juicy,非常正!sauce都夠足,好正!Nachos Poutine($33):nachos toppings+poutine,有橄欖,cream cheese,chili,肉醬,紅腰豆等等,好豐富!poutine即炸,熱辣辣,又脆,真係好正!不過好似toppings仲多過poutine(好彩唔係同沙漠王子去食,如果唔係肯定會要我清碟,肥死我)即叫即整,而且見住佢慢慢整,雖然好肚餓,但係慢工出

可能因為住得太近,成日覺得唔急試唔急食,the big bite居然拖到尋日先食,不過完全無失望!
睇左好耐都唔明set係點計,最後都係要問waiter(佢地唔識講中文的
),先知道原來係單點一個burger一個fries,+$3有tea/soft drinks,簡單黎講就係飲野會抵左,其他不變

anyway,order如下:
Crispy Bacon Cheese Burger($56):好高好大個,睇佢個樣已經令我好滿足了
飽唔係平時的漢堡飽,無芝蔴,但又唔係mc donalds個種muffin飽,比兩者鬆軟,好好味!bacon真係crispy,但係要$7計就唔抵lu~牛肉好厚,而且唔會死死實實,好juicy,非常正!sauce都夠足,好正!
Nachos Poutine($33):nachos toppings+poutine,有橄欖,cream cheese,chili,肉醬,紅腰豆等等,好豐富!poutine即炸,熱辣辣,又脆,真係好正!不過好似toppings仲多過poutine
(好彩唔係同沙漠王子去食,如果唔係肯定會要我清碟,肥死我

即叫即整,而且見住佢慢慢整,雖然好肚餓,但係慢工出細貨,等成十五分鐘真係值架!
big bite有美式burger的heavy,但係heavy得黎好滿足,尤其因為我尋日想暈想暈,食呢D高kcal野返而舒服返~
big bite係我食過美式burger入面最好味的一間,雖然都係偏好日式的freshness多少少(同MOS不相伯仲啦),但係一定會再黎幫襯

希望OR會繼續有coupon啦!$100-$20好抵啊

當晚我們點了以下菜式:1) The Big Bite ($42) 漢堡包十分鬆軟,牛肉也恰到好處,但係食物凍得好快,有d可惜 2,3 年前係上環食過1間叫Burger Joint,係我食過最出色的漢堡包餐廳,可惜現在已結業(本人試過M記, Triple O, MOS Burger, Freshness Burger), 呢間排第二2) Spicy Hot Dog ($37) 香腸煎得好香,雖然話Spicy ,但不太辣,加茄汁,沙律汁同食很滋味.3) Fish & Chips ($56) 好好食,炸魚好香魚味同好鬆化,著條也很出色整體食物質素不俗,只是抽風系統有點差,當煎野個陣,d油煙就好利害,這個有待改善店內只有2人,問過他們來自哪個國家,其實聽得唔清楚,佢地好似話係尼伯爾

乘端午假探人之利,終於遠赴北角一睹Big Bite風采。漢堡店招牌不甚起眼,要落足注意力才找到;清靜舒適的格局及附設洗手位的衛生感,則帶來良好的第一印象。打了底的2人吃: The Big Bite ($42)-習慣了柯打最簡單的原始口味,今次也沒有例外。高身美觀的漢堡賣相不俗,切開鬆軟帶麵粉香的軟包,更發現底層塗了滋味沙律醬,新鮮清新生菜與蕃茄片亦是加分點。很可惜,漢堡精華的牛肉層本身過熟也較實,大大拉低了整體味道,這個漢堡只屬OK水準。 Buffalo wings ($35)-分為mild, medium, hot及suicide四種辣度,要了hot的只得濃烈tabasco味,不覺香辣刺激;而且總只得5隻乾乾瘦瘦的雞翼,以質以量計都太貴。 Poutine ($25)-有大量芝士醬淋面的薯條是整餐最吸引的一項,雖然自身芝士醬不算濃,不過再加上雞翼的blue cheese醬就變得相當滋味,我忍不住吃了七成,夜晚飽到應節的端午糭也吃不下了! Oreo Smoothie (+$13)-勁淡又多冰,吸多兩吸就滿口冰碎的感覺極度討厭,味道與深圳天母藍鳥的黑森林沙冰可謂差天共地,以套價$13也一點

整體而言,食物質素比預期中差,最吸引只是環境及音樂。用上OR的優惠劵後埋單$95,不貴卻不算太值,始終比它好的漢堡店太多了,住在附近還可一試,遠道而來就大可不必了。

星期六,冇任何約會,也樂得清閒,唯一憾事未能成功約一大班朋友去品嚐美食,間接限制咗選擇。一個人用膳,只有西餐一途,恰巧屋企附近有一間名聲唔錯嘅漢堡包店,成為筆者是日之選。西式漢堡包以材料豐富取勝,所以價錢一般大約訂於五十蚊左右,特別餡料超過一百蚊也不足為奇。這裡有大約十數款漢堡包款式供應,此外還有幾款熱狗及小食售賣,看賣相都唔錯。筆者選了一款芝士漢堡包及一杯意大利Lavazza咖啡。先講漢堡包size,唔係誇張,厚度要以「尺」做單位,幾乎有半尺高。望住呢個「高聳入雲」嘅漢堡包,筆者頓時發呆,因為筆者在躊躇怎樣去吃呢個包,一啖由頂到底咬下,有點不可思議,唯有揭起麵包,食咗部分餡料,令漢堡包厚度減至「可以一啖咬得落」嘅程度。餡料十分豐富,有生菜、蕃茄、酸瓜,當然主角漢堡扒也份量十足。漢堡扒即叫即煎,肉汁豐富,稍為擠壓肉汁就洶湧而出,肉味也不怠,加上溶化嘅芝士、洋蔥粒、茄汁及墨西哥辣椒汁,係漢堡扒嘅最佳拍檔。有一點加分嘅地方係其麵包經烘焗之後,鬆軟可口,比港式漢堡包王「時新」嘅嘉頓麵包更佳。要彈嘅就係肉汁加醬汁,太多液體,令麵包底索滿水份,吃起來十分論盡;Lavazza咖啡名氣大,入口比較淡

芝士漢堡包四十九蚊一個,Lavazza咖啡十八蚊一杯。價錢與食品用料、質素相比,可算超值。另外,背景音樂如能放輕一點,給客人多一點寧靜空間更好。
