Mishkin's Steamed Beef Patty (supersized)

On the menu Mishkin's 3oz Steamed Beef Patty is priced at £6. But when I was offered a supersized version for £9, I said "Hell yes!"

Royale Federale (Cape Town, South Africa)

R70 (approx £5.80). Chorizo, chilli, coriander and guacamole in a beef burger? Yeah, that's right. And guess what? It really works!

Don't let this iPhone snap fool you, the Federale burger at Royale in Cape Town is well worth sampling. Why? Well, the patty blends freshly minced beef with chorizo, chilli and coriander - and it's served with a super delicious home made guacamole...

Clarke's in Cape Town only opened in December last year but already the place is garnering a reputation for serving a killer cheeseburger. Within a few hours of arriving in Cape Town, I was sat in the dappled shade of a perfectly placed tree at a table outside Clarke's, excited about fuelling up with a burger...

The Burgermat Show at Royale, Cape Town

Well, now I get to live the dream: The Burgermat Show is travelling to Cape Town in South Africa for an evening of burgers'n'art TONIGHT!
